HELPING YOU FIND A DEEPER CONNECTION TO LIFE

Hello! I’m Sarah,

A Maturation Coach for women who are feeling lost and disconnected from themselves. You may be experiencing a repetitive cycle appearing in your life - living the same days, weeks or months on repeat and feeling stuck, no matter what you do to try to change things.

I’m here to help you slow down, find space for yourself, to remember who you are and what you want out of life.

I will not give you a quick fix and promise to make you feel better. But I will help you to feel more and I will hold space for you to explore all of the things that are contributing to you feeling disconnected, frustrated, overwhelmed, resentful, exhausted or just a bit miserable in the world.

I love life…

I believe that I came here to fall in love with life and to share that love of being alive with others. I lost my connection to life and have spent the last 7 years on a journey of reconnecting to it - in an even deeper, more intentional, and integrated way.

The journey I have been on has undoubtedly reignited my desire to truly embrace living a life that I choose, that I love and that get to enjoy. I want to share the magic that has been created from that with you.

I am here to hold your hand and journey alongside you, as you rediscover yourself and release yourself from all of the masks and survival mechanisms that have been running your life.

I am…

… a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, a friend.

… a nature lover and animal lover (with an ever-growing menagerie of furry friends)

… a 2/4 Generator in Human Design – for me there is a balance between being alone and being social, but when I am happy and excited about what I am doing you will absolutely know about it!

… an Aquarius sun, Virgo moon, Taurus rising

… a perpetual learner – I am a complete nerd at heart and will always look to learn more and understand things at a deeper level

… a book worm and a crafter

How did I get here?

When I was at school I was asked the question “Where do you see yourself at 30?” and in my young, teenage mind the vision was created of me at 30, married, with a child, living in my own house, probably with a few pets, a decent career and feeling very satisfied with all that I had achieved in life. 

I spent my teenage years and my 20’s diligently working towards that goal. I got good grades at school, went to York University and studied for a Masters in Chemistry. Then I went to Oxford University to get my PGCE and qualify as a Science teacher. I got a job, working in an Outstanding school. Moved to a new school and got promotion after promotion, year on year. I worked hard. I loved my job. I also conscientiously ticked off all the other things on my checklist: bought a house ✓, got a cat ✓, got married ✓, had a baby ✓, turned 30 ✓ Checklist complete.

Except for the last part didn’t feel anything like the “and they all lived happily ever after” I had been expecting. Whilst everything from the outside looked happy and shiny and good. Inside there was a constant question that kept appearing “is this it?”. I didn’t feel the way I thought I should. As it kept appearing over and over again I became fairly certain that something was fundamentally wrong with me. I also had no idea what I should do about it or what I should do next. 

So I spent that year determined to do all the things that I thought would make me feel better. Exercising, watching what I ate, reading all the self help books. Constantly doing all of the things. And then I would find myself collapsing on the sofa at 7pm and eating a sharing pack of chocolate buttons in one sitting, or opening a bottle of wine at 4.30pm because that’s what time we were eating dinner with a one year old, so I could justify it. And then the shame and the guilt and the wrongness would appear. It was a vicious cycle that I had stuck on loop - I couldn’t escape it and all of the doing and trying just seemed to make it worse.

When I turned 31, I reached the conclusion that I was broken and needed to be fixed. I booked six therapy sessions and had the first one on my actual birthday! Opening up to another human being about how I was really feeling and having space held for me to begin to talk through everything that was whirring through my mind was an unbelievable relief. It then led me on a journey of rediscovering and remembering who I am, beneath all of the noise of my mind and the layers of protection and survival mechanisms that I had been using to keep myself safe and small and stuck. 

The last 7 years have been a journey. When lockdown hit, the magic of zoom opened up a whole world of possibility for me to explore more of myself by working with coaches from the comfort and safety of my own home. I started working with Nicky Clinch and she has been my coach, teacher and mentor since early 2020. In 2021, I trained with her to become a Maturation Coach. The work of maturation has changed my entire perception of the world and the way in which I fit into it.

Since completing my training I have continued to expand my own practice by incorporating a training with Gemma Brady from Sister Stories on holding Women’s Circles in June 2022. Then I completed a certification in Breathwork and Meditation with the Academy of Breath which I finished in November 2022. These two trainings have strengthened two important aspects of my own healing journey into the offerings that I now hold - the ability to be seen and held and accepted just as we are by other women, and the embodiment and presence that comes from regulating and balancing our nervous systems through Breathwork and Meditation. 

In 2023, I joined a 6 month training with Claire Rother to dive deeply into the science and mechanism of the inner workings of our Nervous System. This training anchored in practices and expanded my toolkit to support my clients who are experiencing chronic nervous system dysregulation and allows me to work in a trauma informed way.

This year, I have been following another thread that has emerged from working so closely with my clients. I joined Claire Baker’s Cycle Coach School, where I have gained a whole new perspective on the importance of connection to our menstrual cycles and harnessing the power of our cyclical nature. I thought I knew a lot from my Science teacher training and a decade spent teaching teenagers about the menstrual cycle - but this training has blown all of that out of the water and demonstrated to me just how little is known and understood about the impact of our cycles on our experience of life.

As I said earlier, I am a “learn it all” and I can guarantee that I will continue to train and continue my own personal and professional growth for the rest of this lifetime (and probably into the next - unless I reincarnate as a cat - which might be a nice break from this human experience).

Who knows where my learning will take me next, but I love to learn things that can be woven into the fabric of my offerings and that I can use to deepen and expand the space that I can hold for my clients.

If you have made all the way to the end (unless you are like me and sometimes just like to skip right to the end to get to the point faster), then the next step is super close…

You may have a really clear idea of what has led you here, you may know that you are looking for a 1:1 Maturation Coach, or that you are interested in joining one of my group spaces.

Or, you may have followed a trail of internet breadcrumbs, have read some things that feel familiar, but not really know exactly where you want to go next.

I would love for you to reach out, book a connection call or send me a note on my contact page.

I don’t believe in coincidences, but I do believe that there is a glimmer of possibility here right now. I know that I am committed to facilitating real change.
