Funny enough, I found my way to Sarah by way of her TED Talk. Once I learned she had her own coaching business, I knew I wanted to speak with her. When we first met, I was lost on my career journey, stalled in my current job search, and skeptical about the whole coaching thing. From the first conversation though, I knew Sarah was not only capable, but likely the person best suited to get me back on track and into a job that was right for me.  The Birkman was very interesting to me, and one of the reasons I was excited to work with Sarah. As a Certified Birkman Coach, Sarah was able to help me better understand the test and what my results actually meant for me. My results gave me clear and concise words to describe myself, and shed light on needs and work behaviors I was never aware of. It was also very helpful when it came time for interviewing! Through the months I worked with Sarah, I put my trust in her and her process. At times I was skeptical and uncomfortable, but Sarah was always there to ease my worries. From the coach to the counselor to the cheerleader, Sarah was able to become whatever I needed in that moment. When I finally received an offer for my ideal role, the best part was telling Sarah and having her genuinely share in my joy. Without Sarah and her wealth of knowledge, I would not be where I am today and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her.

It’s with great excitement that I'm sending you this note! I received a job offer and although it wasn’t with the company we prepped for — I'm even happier with this opportunity. I couldn’t have done this without you! Thank you so much for your advice and guidance at such a critical time in my life! The opportunity is with BMO Harris in digital marketing. The salary is near six figures and there is room for growth!

My mom told me about Sarah, as she has helped a few people in my family find jobs. I started applying to jobs a few weeks after graduating from college, and noticed I was getting a lot of automatic rejects. I began to worry about everything for my future career - where I wanted to end up, what exactly I wanted to do, how much I could be paid. This is where Sarah became invaluable. I had my own vision, and Sarah helped me chase it. From networking, to interviewing, and the after-interview anxiety, she was always there to support me.
