I learned a lot from Sarah about focusing on what I value…

I chatted with Sarah about my career goals and what I’d like in a future career, and she gave me so many tips for how to approach the job application process, as well as the empowerment to start my own company! I’m actually in the process of starting my own business, and I learned a lot from Sarah about focusing on what I value, what I’m passionate about, and what I want in an ideal future employer… which is myself!

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.

Before working with Sarah, I knew I wasn’t flourishing. My work was mentally and physically draining. It kept me away from my family for long hours and offered little or no fulfillment. And no opportunities for advancement. But I was stuck. I couldn’t see how to transition my career, and it was so overwhelming. I was referred to Avarah Careers by a friend who had successfully navigated a career change. I was skeptical coaching would help, but I was desperately unhappy. In working with Sarah, expect homework. Hard homework. But in the process, Sarah helped me learn my strengths and align them with the things I love doing. She taught me to network effectively and coached me to nail the interviews. The process enabled me to find meaningful work that is engaging and energizing. Words cannot express how grateful I am to have found Sarah. I was stuck in a job that drained me and Sarah helped me to move into work I love.

I had never used a career coach before, and wasn’t really sure what they did. Sarah’s warm personality and compassionate approach made it easy to trust her right away and I re-discovered several things about myself that I had lost over 15 years of working for the same company. Sarah approach helped me clarify my skills and my interests which put me on a completely different career path. I felt back on my feet again and full of confidence to start the next chapter of my career. I currently split my time between academic research and being the owner of a small chemical consulting business. I’m happier than I’ve been in at least a decade, and I owe a large debt to Sarah for helping me navigate through this time of disequilibrium.

Working with Sarah Andrus is like working with a swiss army knife of career coaching. She has many tools and resources to offer. Ultimately, she helped me figure out what it is that I really wanted from my career and then gave me tools, hints and tricks on how to go out and get it. Along with that process I also received her unwavering support. I really enjoyed her professionalism, her quick thinking and her ability to relate to me on many different levels. I would highly recommend working with her because she brings a level of focus to your career search that is top notch. I am glad I made the choice to work with her.
