Learn to Harness the Power of Brand Storytelling
In this 8-week coaching program, you'll learn my tried-and-true roadmap for crafting and sharing your story so you can build a recognizable brand and promote it effectively to grow your business.
TIRED OF NOT KNOWING HOW TO TALK ABOUT WHAT YOU DO AND WHY IT MATTERS?
Claim Your Story, Build Your Brand
Have you ever been sitting across from someone you've never met, only for them to pull out the dreaded question, “So what do you do?”
If you're like most people, you probably share that you're a business owner or maybe give a few examples of the products or services you offer, only for the conversation to change and your true value to be left unspoken at best, and misunderstood at worst.
If you're nodding yes, don't worry. There's a better way.
In this 8-week online coaching program, you're going to learn how to harness the power of brand storytelling so you can finally change the conversation, in-person and online.
Never Be Caught Off Guard Again.

"Getting clear on my brand story is the #1 thing I've done for my business."
I remember standing at friend's barbecue when someone I had never met came over and asked what I did. I was still nervous talking about my new business so I said I worked from home, writing. She then turned to my husband, who was standing next to me, and said, "So, you're the one with the real job?"
My mouth fell open and I may have blushed with anger ... but I had to admit that I had completely undersold my expertise and the value I was offering my clients.
At that moment, I promised myself I would never undersell my work again and that I would spend my days making sure others, especially women business owners, didn't either.
This program is here to make sure you never walk away from a conversation (or your computer) feeling like you failed to communicate your value. Because the world needs your vision and your voice, and it's time to start sharing them.
But you don't have to make the same mistake I did.
I get it, because I've been there.

I'm Sarah.
I've spent the last decade studying and practicing the art of storytelling, first as a journalist, then as a writing tutor and professor, and later as content creator for small businesses and nonprofits.
Now, I'm a messaging strategist and professionally trained leadership coach on a mission to help people claim, craft, and share their stories.
Because I believe the world benefits when more of us speak up and lead. And I'd love to help you do just that.
hey there!
More About Me...
If there's been a single constant in my life, it's been my love of storytelling, which is why I was first drawn to writing and how I ended up being a journalist, writing stories about individuals and businesses for a newspaper. But after writing and editing professionally for five years, I felt drawn to a different way of communicating and decided to pick up a camera, which became my first venture into entrepreneurship.
Yet, there I was, running a photography business, but spending most of my days writing all of the blog posts, emails, and social posts that I needed to actually market and grow my business. I kept hearing from other small business owners how much they hated this part of being a business owner (and by that, I mean the whole marketing thing), but I realized that what they were really missing was the story they wanted to be telling.
my story
Together, I'll work alongside you to help you clarify and claim the story you actually want to be sharing so you market your business the right way.
I'll bring my professional coach training and years of experience working with businesses and nonprofits of all sizes to develop their brand messaging and the stories they should be telling.
Based on my experience working with a variety of businesses, from solopreneurs to global nonprofits, I've developed this tried-and-tested 5-step process that I'm so excited to share with you during this program.
Because I believe the world really does need your vision and your voice, and this program is going to help you step into that power.
And that's exactly why this program was created:
