Coaching

I believe coaching and consulting go hand in hand.. Using my background in mental health, public health, social and behavioral sciences, management, and professional business and coaching training, I will wear my ‘consulting’ or ‘coaching’ hats to offer a blended approach tailored to your needs. I am passionate about helping purpose-driven individuals and organizations achieve their goals and make impactful changes in their careers and communities.

Coaching focuses on goal-setting, action plans, and personal development, while therapy addresses mental health issues and emotional healing. As someone with many friends and family who work in mental health and having worked in the mental health world for a decade as a non-clinician, I understand the difference. Through this lens, I provide firm boundaries with professional integrity and a customized approach, often working with clients who also have therapists. It’s not a one-size-fits-all; we’ll determine what best suits your needs together and help ensure you’re supported every step of the way.

A client once said, “Sarah has her head in the sky and feet on the ground”, which was truly the best complement I ever received! I am firmly rooted in evidence-based methodologies, real-world experience, and professional training, while also incorporating the spiritual, soulful side, and intuition/mindset approach. My focus is on purpose-driven work, whether it’s helping individuals or organizations. Unlike typical career coaches who focus solely on resumes, cover letters, or advancing in careers (though we do that too!), I help people intentionally design fulfilling lives where they can make an impact and live lives they don’t need vacations from.

I like to say that you are the captain of your ship and I am the rudder! Coaching sessions are fully customized to your needs. We’ll tailor my step-by-step framework to your specific goals and process, ensuring a personalized experience that evolves with you. (More details on the Coaching page).

Absolutely! My specialty is helping you uncover what makes you tick and how to pivot your career. We’ll start with a comprehensive career clarity assessment to find the direction that’s right for you and translate your existing expertise into a new path.

We’ll meet you where you are, but I recommend dedicating a minimum of 2-3 hours per week to homework and career crafting/life design outside of our coaching sessions for the best results.

Because the work isn’t done yet- and that’s a good thing. What’s worse than not getting your dream result the first time you try something, is letting it stop you the second time. Transformation takes time. This next chapter is about building on the clarity you’ve already created, integrating what you’ve learned, and stepping into the next level of your business and leadership. You’ve laid the foundation-now it’s time to expand, refine, and grow. 

Hot take here: the truth is, when you’re an entrepreneur, you don’t have a boss (you’re your own boss!) But without some form of mentorship, coaching, or external community, you will inevitably run into roadblocks, spend wayyy too long on things you don’t need to, and get in your own way. This is where coaching comes in. Your needs will evolve with time, but there is something to be said about getting the right support in the first few years to get you to where you want to go first!

Life happens, and this container is designed to grow with you. We’ve designed it with spaciousness and real life in mind. You can take breaks and come back when you’re ready. You don’t have to have all your **** together or oodles of time to keep going- you just have to stay connected. Think of it like a hybrid between coaching, therapy for business, & personal development all in one. This space IS the vehicle to get you from A to Z and out of the messy middle.
