You didn't find me by accident...
You’re a reslilient survivor. You’ve done the work. You’ve lived through the hardest chapters of your life.
But deep down, you know you didn’t come this far just to survive.
You’re ready for something more - something that serves, empowers, and inspires.
Maybe it started with a deep desire for more meaning, more connection, or more impact.
Maybe it was a defining moment in your personal healing journey that changed the way you think about your place in the world.
Whatever brought you here, one thing is clear:
You’ve made the decision to turn your pain into something powerful.
I get it, and I'm here to help!
Hey There, I'm Sarah...
I've been where you are!
I know what it feels like to carry a powerful story and wonder if, or how, it’s meant to be shared.
Today, I help survivor-thrivers turn their lived experience into platforms that help others. Whether that's writing your memoir, building a speaking career, creating a course, or launching a movement. I help you figure out what your platform looks like and how to build it without burning out or re-traumatizing yourself.
If you’re feeling the pull to step forward, to share your story, but also feeling the weight of that next step…you’re not alone.
I help support women who are navigating the vulnerabilities of being seen, the pressure to “get it right,” and those with the quiet fear that maybe they’re not ready after all.
If you're sitting in uncertainty, exhaustion, or self-doubt , it doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means you're standing at the threshold of something sacred.
This is what it looks like to be at the edge of transformation.
This is what it looks like to rise with purpose.

What happens when you say YES to your story...
Each of these journeys began with one decision: to let their story mean something more.
"Have you ever had that lost feeling? I think we have all been there, and I am blessed to have had the opportunity to work with Sarah. Sarah knows what she is doing! I feel honored to share with whoever reads this that there is hope! I love to recommend her to friends and family."
Lisa Stickle - Hypnotherapist & Entrepreneur
"Sarah has absolutely shifted my perspective and thought process to the point in my life and mindset where I have had a complete transformation. I am very grateful to have worked with her in my personal journey, and highly recommend her so she can make an impact in your life too!"
Debbie Peck - Social Media Coach
Important Note:
While my programs are primarily created for women rising into purpose, the ripple of this work reaches beyond gender.
Here's how one client describes the transformation of sharing his story...
"Working with Sarah has definately improved the clarity I'm driving for and the mental path to achieve it. It's so refreshing to work with someone and really discover what behaviours, beliefs and words I unknowingly allowed to hold me back. I am beyond confident to continue working with her and why she has received a number of referrals from me - and will continue to do so."
Vince Fowler - Veteran and Business Coach

The Healing Is For You...
The Story is For Someone Else.
Every day, I witness courageous survivors, women full of passion, wisdom, and heart, still standing on the sidelines. Not because they’re unworthy, but because they haven’t yet unleashed the transformative potential within their lived stories.
The truth is, healing isn’t the end of your journey. It is the beginning of a deeper calling, one rooted in purpose, impact, and the power of your voice.
You're already doing some of the hardest things a woman can do...
you'rve survived, you've healed, and you're growing!
It’s time to reclaim your voice, honor your healing, and awaken the leader that’s always lived within you.
And yes, life after healing can be this full of love and purpose.
