About me

Leadership Coach (London & the South East)


Described by her coaching clients as warm, insightful, direct and fun, Sarah is an accredited Professional Certified Coach (ICF), Facilitator and Team Coach.

Tailoring her approach to each person, she works with senior execs and professionals new to leadership positions to help them capitalise on their strengths and ground themselves in their convictions so that they can lead confidently and thrive in challenging roles.

Core to Sarah’s way of working is tapping into the clients innate capacities; she helps them to identify the fresh perspectives that will enable them to navigate the limiting beliefs that may have been holding them back so that they can be at their best and lead authentically.

Sarah has been coaching individuals and teams for over 10 years. She is accredited in a wide range of tools which support the client experience including Strengths Profile, Clarity4D (Behavioural preference) and uses systemic constellations approaches to shine a light on team dynamics.

The sort of things that people work with Sarah on include:
• Confidently navigating the transition to a more senior leadership role – and getting established within a senior team
• How to leverage strengths and innate capacities to navigate challenging situations
• Making career changes – exploring what really lights them up and reconnecting with their professional “mojo”
• Team coaching to deepen understanding of different ways of being; opening up communication and improving cohesiveness.

Sarah works with clients across a wide range of sectors including culture and heritage, publishing, digital media, higher education and the senior civil service.

Sarah is also a massive advocate of the power of nature to support all aspects of our health and wellbeing; she combines Forest Bathing (she is a qualified TFBI Guide) with coaching and mind-body practices (Sophrology), regularly co-facilitating retreat days in the Kent & Surrey countryside.

Prior to her coaching career Sarah had a 20 year marketing career working for organisations including Coca Cola Schweppes, Routledge publishing and latterly the British Library, where she was Head of Audience Development and Brand, leading both organisational change and brand positioning programmes.

Sarah is a remarkable coach, with boundless intuition and kindness. I met Sarah as I stood at a professional crossroads, feeling conflicted by my choices and somewhat rudderless. Sarah was a fantastic travel, challenging and pushing me out of my comfort zone just as much as I needed. I was able to get the clarity and sense of purpose I was looking and longing for. What was so special about Sarah is that I never really felt I was meeting a coach but rather a friend who understood and cared for me deeply. There was always a sense of unquestionable integrity and trust. With Sarah, I re-encountered the brave, intrepid woman I once was but had forgotten about and I have come to love my ADHD characteristics that, I now realise, I was trying to suppress/ ignore but are a crucial component of my energetic and creative self. Sarah’s impact on my self-efficacy, self-esteem and confidence have been immeasurable and I feel hugely grateful our paths have ever crossed. Ana Costa-Pereira.

Working with Sarah over the last few months has been a genuine pleasure. Sarah's unique blend of warmth, insight, and directness in her coaching practice has been a powerful combination. I have greatly appreciated Sarah's perceptive ability to ask searching questions and challenge me in our coaching sessions, which has led to significant personal growth through radical candour. Her use of Strengths Profiling has been valuable in unlocking insights that I can apply in my work and personal life to reach my goals. I would absolutely consider working with Sarah again in the future. Tim W.

Working with Sarah has completely changed my life. I have been able to review everything about my life and to really focus on what is important to me and also, more importantly, why. By delving into everything from values to strengths, I have been able to really understand myself, what I need to be fulfilled and why things have and haven't worked out in the past. And by reflecting on all of this, I have carved out a future plan which is very different from what I imagined at the beginning.

Having Sarah as my co-pilot has been transformational. Her insight and intuition have unlocked inherent strengths that have been hiding in plain sight and have supercharged my self-belief. Sarah’s evident enjoyment of her work made my coaching journey with her more powerful; as a result my outlook on the future is very different to what I had previously thought possible.
