Today, she combines that lived experience with science-backed strategies to help women move forward with strength, clarity, and confidence.

Based in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Sarah coaches women around the world from her small-town home—bringing big-picture perspective and real-life practicality to everything she teaches.
