ERIC S. — MANAGING DIRECTOR • CITIGROUP
“I connected with Sarah to discuss about my career at a point I felt it was at a standstill, and as I was lacking the energy to conduct a proper introspection. I found the work sessions with her really constructive, as it helped me to step back and analyse what I still liked and what I did not enjoy anymore in my current role, which was the first necessary step before deciding the direction to choose and focus on the right opportunity for my professional future.
Sarah’s style was really smooth, she immediately created a very interactive environment, and managed through our different conversations, to push me to ask myself the right questions and re-connect with my priorities. Very quickly I realised that several things in my job and life style were draining my energy and that I could take back the ownership of my life, by limiting those negatives as much as possible and ultimately organise a set up only around things which I like to do and motivate me.
I now feel that my level of energy is back up and definitely much more positive, and I really believe that I am now in a much better position to take the right decisions which will ultimately lead me to keep progressing and enjoying a successful career and much more balanced life style.
One of the most noteworthy points from our conversations with Sarah, is that she never tried to tell me what I should do or not. She challenged me on a number of topics without ever being intrusive on anything, and thus managed to force me to re-think about a number of important topics."
SANDRA V - MBA PROGRAM MANAGER. MICROSOFT
“Sarah is an outstanding career coach. Her honesty, friendliness, and unwavering support have been invaluable to me. Notably, Sarah excels at helping women navigate difficult life transitions, such as menopause and maternity, whilst maintaining a career.

FAN J. - M&A SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT. WILLIAM BLAIR
“I had the pleasure to work with Sarah as my career coach. In the past weeks her help and guidance has been truly instrumental in terms of: (1) elevating me from the career burnout I’ve been experiencing; (2) Giving me practical advice and coaching in advocating for myself at workplace and successfully negotiating a sabbatical. A hallmark of Sarah’s approach has been a level of openess and compassion which differentiates from other coaches/psychiaratrists - she always comes from a place of open mindedness. I look forward to working with her on more holistic career & wellness management, which she is highly experienced in. Thank you Sarah - you’ve been amazing!”

During our time together Sarah playing a crucial role in helping me navigate through redundancy, both mentally and tactically. Her support not only boosted my confidence but also equipped me with the necessary tools to secure interviews at my desired firms.
Sarah’s expertise spans a wide range, and her dedication to helping others overcome challenges and achieve thier goals is truly commendable. I couldn’t recommend Sarah more highly for anyone seeking professional guidance and support in their career journey. “
MARION F. — SENIOR BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER • AWS GAMETECH
“Sarah was recommended to me via my network (London Revenue Collective). I felt I was a bit stuck in my personal development and hoped she could help me unblock some of the challenges I seemed to put in my own way. As much as I was aware of what I needed to tackle, I just didn’t know how to.
When I started working with Sarah, she dug even deeper than I thought. It doesn’t happen very often that someone unravels things about me that I hadn’t thought about before, but she got there. The topics we worked on were expectations, boundaries and how to let go. Since we’ve started our journey, I have realised a change in many ways, I feel more balanced about things and not get thrown off my path so easily anymore. I feel more comfortable addressing issues in my everyday life, I manage to be more constructive about it and also more relaxed about the outcome. I am very grateful that our paths have crossed and can highly recommend working with Sarah.”

She is very empathetic and able to dig deeper and get to the root cause of issues whilst remaining very objective. Sarah has helped me to overcome some big hurdles and approach things in a more constructive way. She is also helping me to focus more on my own value and self worth, holding me accountable for this.

is a good listener and receptive to your emotions and need for change. I will be looking at

SHAMAILA JAVAID - ORTHODONTIC CONSULTANT
“Sarah is incredible and I’m so glad my friend recommended her after seeing me struggle at work, I was loosing confidence and feeling demotivated. Thanks to Sarah that within a few sessions she reignited the self esteem in me which is helping me navigate my way in a much better and organised way. I can’t thank her enough and highly recommend. ”
AMINA 0 - CONSULTANT ORTHODONTIST
“I can’t recommend Sarah enough. I was feeling confused and stuck in a rut for a while, unsure of what steps to take next in my career and personal life. Working with Sarah has been a total game changer.
What impressed me was her structured appraoch. We didn’t just chat aimlessly about my problems. Sarah created a clear framework and goals for our sessions, which helped me identify my goals and roadblocks and laser focus. What I also found valuable was her ability to draww and share from her personal and professional experiences. She then used a variety of techniques , from goal setting exercises to personality assesments, to get me thinking deeply about myself and what I truly wanted. But it wasn’t all worksheets and tests. Sarah is an incredible listener. She created a safe space where i felt comfortable being completley honest and vunerable. Her empathy and encouragement were invaluable as I worked through some tough emotions. Sarah didn’t just listen; she guided me to solutions. She helped me reframe my negative thoughts, develop actionable plans and build confidence. If you’re looking for a life coach who is wise, professional, insightful and cares about your success, then look no further than Sarah.”
