“I found myself facing a challenge in managing my team within a decentralised structure, especially with a different perspective on team organisation from my direct manager. Sarah supported me in navigating this environment that didn’t align with my beliefs.

Sarah approached the situation with patience and understanding, listening to my concerns and taking the time to get to know me personally. Through thoughtful questions, she guided me to discover my own solutions. She also suggested practical ways to shift my focus toward things that were more fulfilling to me and provided strategies to prepare my mindset before engaging in difficult conversations with various stakeholders. Her coaching helped me feel more grounded and confident in my leadership style, especially after just a few sessions.

I was fortunate to continue working with Sarah in the Empower, women in leadership program she facilitated. The program was carefully crafted, and Sarah brought in professional female speakers who shared valuable insights from their journeys.”

Sarah is truly a caring and inspirational leader in her field. I highly recommend anyone seeking coaching to work with her. Her ability to listen, empower, and guide has made a significant impact on my professional growth.”

“Talentary's research-driven approach to improve human connection in the workplace through increasing our awareness is invaluable for all teams. Insured by Us is a remote team and we are spread across different timezones. Sarah conducted a remote emotional intelligence workshop, which included a mindfulness meditation session. We can't wait to invite Sarah back to IBU and further our education.”

Georgina Robilliard, Head of People and Culture

“Before working with Sarah, I was feeling a bit lost with my career. I was interested in getting into leadership but I didn’t know how. I also didn’t know if I was capable of it!

I decided to work with Sarah because she has years of experience working with leaders, especially in the tech industry. I also know a lot of people who worked with Sarah before and they only have positive things to say.

Sarah is an amazing listener, deeply empathetic and knows exactly the right questions to ask in order to get you to think deeply. She’ll push you (in a gentle kind of way) to go outside of your comfort zone, which is so necessary if you want to grow. It is so easy to talk to Sarah and I always looked forward to our coaching session. She cares deeply about everyone she works with.

After working with Sarah, I feel more confident. I now also have tools I can draw on whenever I feel that imposter syndrome creeping up.

If you are feeling a bit lost with your career or wanting to learn how to be a better leader, I highly recommend you reach out to Sarah.”

Fiona Chan, Partner and Technical Recruiter, Lookahead

“Sarah welcomed me to Atlassian back in 2007, making sure I got off to a great start. Reflecting on our growing team at Easy Agile it became apparent that we would need a People & Culture Business Partner, and it made sense to hire for that role earlier and get the pillar established rather than waiting until when we were struggling.

It was an obvious choice to reach out to Sarah for guidance and support as we worked to find the right person to join Easy Agile. I knew from our time working together at Atlassian that we were values aligned, and her focus on wellness and mental health was also really aligned with the values we had adopted at Easy Agile.

I would definitely recommend working with Sarah. She was a supportive partner as we embarked on a journey in a space that we didn't have prior experience with, helping us frame the People & Culture role and ensuring we didn't settle for anything except an A player. Success!”

Nick Muldoon, Co-CEO, Easy Agile

“Working with Sarah through her 1:1 coaching program has been a pleasure. The experience has proven invaluable for our business and my own personal growth.

I sought out Sarah when I realised the needs of our growing business were outpacing my own development and leadership capabilities. Sarah’s tailored approach is calm and thoughtful. Her investigation was respectful, yet her questioning was incredibly insightful. She has helped evolve my mindset, perceptions, and practices to better support the needs of our team.

I highly recommend Sarah to anyone open to a little reflection and a desire to improve.”

Campbell Smith, Founder and Owner, Greensmith & Co.

“I came to Sarah for coaching at a time when I had recently left a job and career I was extremely unhappy in. I was feeling shaken, overwhelmed, confused and lost. I knew I did not want to return to the career I had left, but I also had no idea how to move forward. Sarah helped me navigate my options and reconnect with the person I’ve been wanting to be for a long time.

Sarah has so much knowledge and wisdom from her years of experience in business, which was invaluable to tap into. Her unique approach challenged my unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, whilst at the same time helping me see a way forward and encouraging me on.

After coaching with Sarah, I feel equipped and inspired, with a clear vision for my business and a renewed confidence to move forward. In addition to the personal growth I experienced from my coaching sessions, I found the coaching sessions so inspiring that I looked forward to them.

I would highly recommend Sarah’s services to anyone who needs guidance or a nudge to help them move forward in their career. Thank you so much Sarah!”
