What Clients Are Saying

  • "Sarah created a space that was structured but flexible, encouraging but challenging, and always grounded in thoughtful listening. She offered clear next steps and helped me organize my thoughts in a way that truly moved me forward. I now have much more clarity on what I can bring to the market. Through our work together, I was able to better define my strengths, organize my thoughts, and articulate my value in a way that feels both authentic and aligned with my future goals. This clarity has given me greater confidence and a stronger sense of direction as I move into the next phase of my career."

    Kristin gained the clarity and confidence to define her strengths, articulate her unique value, and step into the next phase of her career as she transitions from military service to building her own civilian business.

  • “Sarah was instrumental in helping me through the decision-making process about taking on a new role and then in coaching me as I prepared to transition into the role. Sarah is a thoughtful and compassionate coach who really listens and understands, reflecting back and prompting with thought-provoking questions. Her balance of pushing me to see things differently and consider different perspectives combined with her thoughtful questions was a great combo - I never felt pushed in an uncomfortable way but I felt supported all along.”

    Kate found the confidence to leave her draining management position at a top consulting firm and successfully secured + transitioned into an exciting Director role at a Leadership Development firm that is more aligned with her key strengths and ideal work culture.

  • "Sarah is an amazing coach! She is incredibly empathetic, a great listener, and has so much patience. She always makes me feel comfortable and supported during our sessions. Since starting coaching with Sarah, I’ve learned to focus on and appreciate my progress rather than just the final result. This shift in perspective has been a game changer for me, it’s brought me more peace and reduced my anxiety in various situations. I now approach my goals with a healthier mindset, which has made a big difference in my personal and professional life."

    Andrea has shifted from anxiety to clarity, and is now advancing her life goals and her career at a prestigious consulting firm with a healthier mindset.

  • “Sarah helped me understand my mindset, what energizes and motivates me, and now I have a roadmap laid out for how to build an effective network: who to reach out to, what to ask, and how to keep in touch. I’m now pursuing a completely different career path that’s more aligned with my personal motivations and goals; and I’m braver about connecting with my network and resources.”

    Olivia is a new mom who has worked at prestigious tech companies + consulting firms in both client facing and technical roles. A smart and accomplished professional, she easily landed a new job every 1-2 years but felt consistently unhappy in each role. After working together, she now has deep clarity on her ideal fit and is exploring a pivot into a more aligned career path.

  • “I found working with Sarah to be really insightful and helpful. I honestly think the sessions are beneficial for anyone that is a high achiever or has been really working heavily to grow their career, even if they are not looking to immediately transition. The most valuable part of her coaching was the opportunity to talk through my ideas, biases and have that needed pushback to take it one step deeper and find the “why.” I have started being more intentional about how I approach work and success and the balance of both in my life.”

     Anthony is a tech leader focused on building his career to the C-Suite. Through our work together, he developed a more intentional and holistic approach to his work-life integration as he continues to move up the ladder.

  • "Sarah's coaching helped me challenge many assumptions I had developed about work and I learned how to control elements of my work reality after my experience working in very intensive-burnout type job/institution. This re-framing really follows me around in every aspect of my life, and I'm grateful for it!”

    Emily spent over a decade founding a new program with widespread institutional impact at a top university and felt deeply burned out when we first connected. Through our work together she adopted a more balanced mindset towards work achievements and successfully pivoted into leadership roles with nonprofits and political campaigns aligned with her values.

  • “Sarah’s approach was supportive, insightful, and action-oriented. I left each session feeling more focused and confident about my next steps. The most valuable aspect was being able to put my thoughts into words and turn them into concrete, actionable steps. It brought clarity and structure to ideas I had been considering for some time. I now have greater clarity around my long-term career goals and more clearly defined personal goals, which has helped me feel more focused and intentional overall.”

    Douglas joined The Career Catalyst program while feeling “confused/stuck” and “having trouble aligning skill with job opportunities” that he “felt would be fulfilling in the long term.” He was considering several paths, but “did not have full clarity” on what he was looking for in his next move. After working together, he now has clarity around his long-term career goals and took action by pursuing an aligned graduate school program.
