Why Reflection Matters

Looking back on my own journey, I often wished someone had encouraged me to ask the deeper questions.

Over time, I’ve realized that true success — both in life and work — isn’t just about expertise. It’s about knowing yourself. The most successful and fulfilled people have a clear understanding of their values, their unique strengths, and what success truly means to them.

When you take the time to reflect and define success on your own terms, you’re not just gaining clarity — you’re building the foundation to thrive. Self-awareness is what allows us to navigate complexity, lead with intention, and make an outsized impact within organizations and beyond.

Over the years, I’ve explored many annual review tools and found the process to be deeply rewarding —but none quite captured what I was looking for…

…a tool that allowed me to reflect deeply on both my personal and professional goals in a way that goes beyond just results. I wanted something that would help me think holistically, connecting those goals to purpose, intention, and a long-term vision.

I needed a framework that recognized success isn’t just about what we achieve, but why we’re striving for it and how it aligns with the bigger picture of our lives and work.

So, I decided to create my own — a reflection and planning guide that brings together everything I value: clarity, depth, and a thoughtful, integrated approach to meaningful and sustainable success.

  • "Sarah facilitated a team session for us that vastly upleveled our team dynamic and mutual understanding. Facilitating team cohesion & culture requires different approaches post pandemic as a hybrid work environment has become increasingly normative. Sarah challenged us each to consider how we want to be in new contexts and built a sense of collective responsibility for that instead of each pursuing individual goals. It was a crucial reset moment after spending so much time working apart."

    Dorothy Chou, Head of Public Affairs

  • "Sarah quickly grasped the nuances of our business and created a space for genuine growth.  She balanced a warm, approachable style with unrelenting focus on results. The outcome was a more senior, secure leader who we feel confident will be a great people leader in the near future. 

    Guy Griggs, VP National Sales, New York Times

  • “I very much enjoyed our time together. Sarah had a great ability to listen, pull out the important areas for further exploration, and brought me along to having very productive conversations [with my executive team that have powered better results in our business over the past several quarters.] Coaching with Sarah was time very well spent.”

    Kurt Fraser, Chief X Officer, Hill Robinson, Monaco

  • “Coaching with Sarah completely changed my career trajectory. She has an incredible talent to ask questions which challenge your limitations and push you to achieve goals which may not have initially felt possible. I started the session confused on my career goals and left knowing I was not alone, feeling energised with a clear plan. Since my time with Sarah I have received a job promotion, began an extremely successful non profit and recommended her to many of my friends!”

    Liseli Sumbwanyambe, Management Consultant at Leading Firm & Founder of the ladder club

  • "Sarah has a sincere gift for coaching. She masterfully helped me navigate certain professional issues and challenges with profound insight and structured plans forward. I left every single coaching session feeling infinitely more positive and action oriented."

    Private Equity Investor, London

  • “When I began coaching I viewed myself as a strong and competent employee, but was feeling stuck, limited, and frustrated in my role. Working with Sarah as an executive coach helped me shift my mindset, reframe my thinking, and critically look at my career path. She guided me to make impactful changes that have reinvigorated and given me visibility among senior executives at my company. Without Sarah, I would have struggled to learn how to show vulnerability in a business setting. Learning this key skill has physically and mentally unburdened me, and allowed me to advance at my company.”

    Senior Executive, Advertising

  • "I’ve worked with several executive coaches throughout my career, but none have matched Sarah’s approach. She wasn’t just a coach, she became a trusted advisor and business mentor, always available when I needed extra support, helping me untangle complex issues and guiding me with clarity and confidence. Her ability to get to the root of a challenge and help me explore nuanced, solution-oriented approaches transformed how I approached difficult conversations, whether with direct reports or the broader team. Having Sarah by my side during a challenging period of leading my team through a global restructure made all the difference. I can’t recommend her highly enough to any leader looking for meaningful, results-driven coaching."
