After careers in academic publishing, international development and consultancy, Sarah trained to become a Co-Active CoachTM with the Coach Training Institute (CTI). Since 2012, she has run a successful coaching practice working one to one and in groups. Sarah is particularly skilled at creating the safe and courageous spaces and facilitating deep growth and transformation. She combines compassionate enquiry, deep listening, and intuition; with archetype, poetry and myth, blending these approaches with visualisation and embodiment practices in service of her clients’ being, becoming and belonging.

Sarah is currently creating a group learning journey exploring the individual and systemic dimensions of this enquiry: Why do so many of us spend so much time in Fear, and how do we create - or remember – the safe, genuine and courageous pathways by which we can return to Love?

Sarah came to grief tending work through her own experiences of loss and grief, and the inspiring beauty and wise alchemy of the work of Francis Weller, Joanna Macy, Malidoma Some, Sophy Banks (and others). She has trainings in Mindfulness and Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) and is a sometimes regular, sometimes reluctant meditator. Other sources of inspiration and joy include: reading, writing poetry, walking, creating community, swimming and spending time with loved ones.
