I'm Layla
Operator | Integrator | Executor for Visionary Founders
You bring the vision - I build the operational architecture that turns it into reality, with clarity, stability, and momentum.
With over 15 years of global experience across property, hospitality, and integrative health & wellness, I partner with founders to transform purpose-led ventures into scalable, well-run businesses - grounded in operational precision and human-centred leadership.
Architecting the Vision
From leading multi-site property and hospitality developments across London, Dubai, and Malaysia to rebuilding operations for psychedelic retreat centres, telehealth startups, and wellness brands, my work bridges strategy, systems, and execution.
I design operating frameworks that align impact, profitability, and delivery - enabling founders to step out of daily firefighting while their businesses scale across physical and digital environments.
Trusted by Founder-Led Ventures translating visionary leadership into sustainable, self-running systems.
