COMPANIES

Great companies run on extraordinary people.

As a former tech leader who burned out four times, and now as an Executive Coach, I've seen the costs of neglecting our well-being, and the leadership development of our teams: talented leaders leaving companies - or walking away from their careers entirely, and promising start ups failing before reaching their full potential.

But I've also discovered how blending performance with well-being creates unstoppable teams.


Today, I help leaders unlock their full potential—and their teams'—through holistic leadership coaching that fosters high performance, health, and fulfillment.

Together, we're building cultures where:

  • Your business sustainably scales alongside personal fulfillment

  • People excel professionally, while staying energized & healthy

  • Leaders have big impact without all the overwhelm or burnout

Let’s help your teams thrive.

CLIENTS AT

1:1 Executive & Leadership Coaching

My clients are CTOs, COOs, Founders, Scientists, and leaders in Education, Venture Capital, UX, Engineering, Data Science, CX, Sales, Marketing, and Program Management.

Most are athletes or creatives, have had to work extremely hard to get where they are, and to create generational wealth and security for their families. They’re life-long learners, self-reflective, and action takers who care deeply about others, and what they’re building.


I combine 8 years of ICF certified evidence based coaching, expertise in well-being and burnout, with my +10 year leadership experience in early to growth stage tech companies. I marry that with my experiences as a professional performer, as an athlete, a business owner, near death survivor, and parent - to empower extraordinary, high performing, grounded, and resilient leaders that can handle anything leadership or life throws at them.

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 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

  • “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 continually evolve.”

    - Ops & Program Strategy, New York Times

  • “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.”

    - VP, Partner Experience, Boulevard
