TESTIMONIALS

“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!”

Psychologist and Coach

“I have worked with Sarah for over 11 years and can attest to her outstanding talents in all things people and culture, especially her ability to look at situations with a calm and spiritual lens resulting in mature and unique insights and solutions. Sarah genuinely cares and is curious about people; she leaves everyone that interacts with her feeling truly seen, equipped and inspired to take positive action.

Sarah and I initially worked together in a more traditional HR capacity and our later engagements have focused on mindfulness, wellbeing, meditation and emotional intelligence. Sarah is extremely competent and knowledgeable across all of these areas, and, the cherry on top is she is a delight to work with and to know! I highly recommend Sarah and Talentary to any individual, team or organisation looking to evolve themselves and achieve great results.”

“Working with Sarah was a genuine privilege, and one of the best investments of time I've made. Being able to benefit from her experience is an opportunity I'm really grateful for.

Through 1:1 coaching, Sarah guided me towards some really meaningful insights, and lasting change to the way I think about and use time, the mindset I bring to different situations, and how I approach problems and more. I approached Sarah when I was starting to lead people more directly for the first time, and would highly recommend you talking to her if you're in the same situation or looking to improve what you do today.”

John Masson

“I am very interested in the topic of emotional intelligence, so I attended a workshop that Sarah ran. Sarah seemed peaceful, kind, and the type of person from who I could learn something new. When the timing was right for me, I decided to work with Sarah for 1:1 coaching.

Through 1:1 coaching with Sarah, I wanted to master the art of taking over my emotions. Something that I believe all influential leaders and passionate people need to work on. Working with Sarah helped me improve my self-awareness, taught me ways to practice mindfulness, be thankful for who I am and acknowledge the positives in my life. Thank you, Sarah.”
