Grow and stay grounded.

I help leaders grow their careers and missions—while navigating life’s transitions, staying healthy, and honoring what matters most.

It’s easy to be all in at work and lose ourselves personally, or to underestimate how much life affects our performance—and how work pressures affect our lives.

I’ve been there myself: managing near-death, burnout cycles, CPTSD, divorce, multiple career reinventions and successes, plus the demands of leadership in fast-growing tech companies—all while raising a family.

I provide a holistic, whole-person, and whole life approach to my work with leaders, helping them integrate career growth, leadership, and personal well-being.

You can navigate all of work and life’s transitions with grace and resilience, staying connected to what matters most.

Together, we’ll create a meaningful career and life that feels sustainable, and authentically yours.

 

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING

  • "When I came to Sarah, I was at a career crossroads, struggling to translate my broad skills into defined job descriptions after 7 years at a startup that scaled from 10 to 250 employees; Series D. I struggled with brain fog and difficulty articulating what I wanted. We focused on what made me happy, kept me healthy, and the parameters that would make me feel confident long-term, working backwards to create a plan. Without her, I wouldn't have had the confidence to take this risk - moving to a non-traditional opportunity that aligned incredibly with my interests and career aspirations. I couldn't be happier.”

    - VP Product Engineering, Climate Finance Consultancy

  • “I used to wake up feeling stressed 95% of the week. I felt stuck, unhappy and burned out. I was a top performer at work, always over-extended myself to friends and family, and I didn’t feel like I was ever enough. Working with Sarah helped me reduce my stress significantly! I went from working 50 - 60 hours a week, not singing or creating and feeling incredibly low, to working a healthy amount of hours on things that I love. The boundary, confidence, and life work we did helped me create my own business and start the process of creating an album in New York City. Pinch me I am dreaming!”

    Founder, Leadership Coach, Program Manager, Lyft

  • “Sarah’s an instrumental part of my mental health and foundational support system. Her personal and professional experience make her a safe haven for questions and complicated feelings as I work on relationships, and complex work situations. She’s helped me re-establish my professional confidence, she provides candid but kind observations, and tangible self-work exercises. Her approach is human first, and she quickly adapts to my needs in a session, pivoting when a personal topic triggers a connection to work (and vice versa). It’s wonderful to count on her, and I’m excited to keep working together as I contiually evolve.”

    - Ops & Program Strategy, New York Times

  • “Sarah’s freaking awesome, and my life has really improved since working together. I’m in a better emotional place, and I took the steps to move to a job that better aligned with my values. I’m now able to evaluate myself and my goals in a healthier, less judgmental way. It’s not just a venting session; she’s helped me incorporate practical actions into my daily life, along with the benchmarks to evaluate and see my progress everywhere.”

    - Founder / Digital Marketer, TGH Marketing

  • “I reached out to Sarah when I was facing a crossroads in my career. This is not an easy conversation to explore alone or with a partner or with a colleague. The objective perspective was crucial for me, and she helped me untangle the emotions, the benefits, the risks so I could make the decision that was right for me.”

HI I’M SARAH

I'm so happy you’re here.

I’m a leadership and career coach, a start up operator, and a consultant.

I'm a Professionally Certified Coach (PCC) via the ICF (International Coaching Federation) of 8+ years with clients at Anthropic, Rivian, Google, Texas A&M, College Track, and The New York Times.

I’m an indoor cycling instructor at CycleBar, a single parent to two, and an Operations Leader of over 15 years in early-growth stage tech companies.

I work with ambitious leaders in early midlife, at fast-evolving companies, who are deeply passionate about their work, with a legacy to build, who value growth, and who want sustainable success: well-being, meaning, strong relationships, and an extraordinary career.

Success doesn’t have to mean suffering. We can build powerful legacies while living rich, healthy, fulfilling lives.

Let's thrive together.

MY APPROACH

  • You’re in the driver’s seat of our work, and I’m on passenger side, helping you navigate there. I’m here to help you develop the tools to reach your full potential and gain independence without me. You have the resources inside; I am just here to help you tap into them, and then we'll part ways!

  • Coaching is a safe, non-judgmental, inclusive, and confidential place to be honest and direct about who we are, what we're thinking, and what we're feeling - even when difficult, or embarrassing. Your identity, lived experiences and unique needs will be acknowledged, and thoughtfully considered throughout our work.

  • Our coaching work will be validating, supportive, warm and fuzzy, as much as it will be rooted in science, be practical, be uncomfortable, and meant to challenge you.

  • I believe that our journey led us to where we are now, and fuels our future growth. The good, the bad, and the ugly are all important. We should honor, and leverage them.

  • Coaching is never an off the shelf, prescribed formula, because you’re complex. Thriving at work and home requires an approach that hones all the dimensions of who you are: mind, body, soul, head, heart, and environment - drawing on a range of tools, while embracing your unique history and experiences.
