Eight weeks, 1:1 coaching and training programme for high level women in business who are craving the practical strategies and personal performance habits to create more resilience, peace and success.
Coach in your Pocket is a one-to-one performance & resilience programme for women who spend their time delivering on other’s people’s expectations of them, because they don’t want to let anyone down.
It’s for high performing women like you who from the outside look totally in control, but inside you are creaking, exhausted and cruising on the edge of burnout.
Every day you give yourself a pep talk - you tell yourself you’ve got this, you can do this and every day you do.
You’re not the woman that breaks down. You’re the woman that holds everyone else up. You’re the woman with the brave face, cracking a joke, doing it all, achieving it all.
You’re the woman that keeps cracking on.
Maybe it’s time to do something different; to lean in, to regain some peace, balance and drive. It’s time to take off the mask.
Coach in your Pocket
It’s a new way of coaching that fits into your life. Because let’s face it; you can’t face another date in your diary.
You get an 'on-the-go', voice note coaching system that provides you with the coaching, training and support to RE-GAIN CONTROL and start living as the leading lady (not the stage sweeper).
The programme provides ongoing support and accountability, increasing consistency of actions, a different way of doing, embedding learning and developing systems for performance success.
I know you flourish when you're in control, but things have gone way beyond that right now and it's time to re-gain the essence of you.
I know you're craving peace and harmony (and a way to reduce the constant noise in your brain.)
I know you want to get back to who you are, to perform at your highest level and show up with cool, calm confidence.
I know you're a force to be reckoned with, ready to create new high performance habits and get access to proven and practical strategies for professional and personal success.
“Look at her they whispered.”
“How does she do it? How does she do it all?”
“She’s a superhero. If you need anything, just ask her.” they said.
“If you need it fixing” she’s your woman they said.
“She’s always so busy, but always has time for you.” they marvelled.
And the expectations heaped on.
“How does she juggle it all?” they questioned.
“She’s a warrior,” they admired.
“She never stops,” they said.
“She’s always on. I don’t know how she manages it all. She spins so many plates.” they whispered.
“She’s Wonder Woman.” they thought.
Is the weight of expectations of others; professionally and personally taking you under? Is the heaviness of wearing the warrior badge dragging you down?
Is the weight of expectations on yourself in danger of burying you?
Is the need to constantly deliver on those expectations of yourself, of wearing the mask of perfection starting to crack?
You know what you need to do, you tell yourself every week; this week will be different.
You know that something needs to change.
And yet a part of you associates busy with successful, being always on with achievement and success with stress. And those messages have become so entwined that it’s hard to know where to start unpicking the performance from the resilience from the burnout.
It’s hard to know how to say:
“I don’t know how to do it all. I don’t know how to stop.”
You know that you need to do THE work but you don’t know how to find the time to do differently.
You know you are cracking, you know that your energy is depleted but you don’t know how to shift those expectations that you place on yourself, that others place on you.
You know that being wonder woman defines you, but you also know that it’s hightailing you to burnout.
What if I could show you how you could still wear your Wonder Woman badge with pride without paying the price of burnout and your mental resilience and wellbeing.
High performance doesn’t have to come at a price of you ability to cope, to thrive, to create the space for your own freedom, joy and success.
Let me show you how with Coach in your Pocket designed specifically for you, for the always on, high functioning woman on the edge.
I see you…
you're so busy, you’re always on; your plates are constantly spinning all your balls are juggling, but you can’t stop the plate spinning or the juggling because if you don't get it done, who else will?
you're waking up at 3am writing to-do lists, remembering the things you should have done that day, you’re living off coffee and quick bites, and yearning for just 5 minutes for yourself
you've forgotten what it's like to feel relaxed and instead you fear burnout is looming (and you dread to think how everyone would cope if you had to take a few weeks off)
Jo Eccles, Senior Account Director
“First and foremost - working with Sarah is fun! I felt immediately relaxed when we had our initial chemistry call and then face to face session (I’m lucky that we live close to each other). Sarah immediately “got” my context, and we quickly got to work. I appreciate structure so I enjoyed starting the programme with the Emergentics profile and using this as a reference through the sessions.
Fundamentally Sarah is very skilled in asking the right questions, which are often challenging, and then she holds the space for your to consider the response, what that means, and how to practically apply these approaches in your day to day. A lot of the work we did supported me in overcoming challenges associated with a transition in my role - helping me navigate the change with confidence and grace, and the tools I have from the programme ultimately help me make hard things feel easier. And knowing there will always be hard things to deal with at work, and that it is unrealistic to consider eliminating the difficult situations for good, I am now better equipped to deal with challenges as and when they arise (as they always will!)
We also had a great conversation about goals - which had always felt like a scary topic to me, in so much as defining a goal meant that you could fail against it, and failure is not something I am very comfortable with - but Sarah and I worked on this and how goals don’t have to be specific “thing” - so quite a lightbulb moment for me to reframe a goal as a desired emotional state, which could then be worked towards in a more flexible manner
Ultimately, I feel like I better understand myself as a result of the programme, and this helps me rationalise new challenges rather than getting swept up in the emotions or be distracted by things I cannot control.
For anyone in a similar situation, I would wholeheartedly recommend working with Sarah.”
Are you always on?
Do you spend your time protecting what you have on high alert, constantly scanning for danger?
Do you spend your time focussed on what you are seeking to avoid?
Are you seeking to avoid burnout, overwhelm, procrastination, fatigue, stress, fear of failure, getting found out, imposter syndrome, dropping one of the many balls you are juggling?
FACT: The more time you spend thinking about what you are seeking to avoid, the more likely you are to move towards that.
FACT: Our subconscious brains don’t hear the words can’t, don’t ….so when you think, I don’t want to feel overwhelmed; guess what instruction you’re giving your brain? When you think I don’t want to fuck this up; guess what instruction you are giving to your brain?
The more we focus on what you are seeking to avoid the more you will NOT avoid it.
With Coach in your Pocket, we work together on what you are working to create.
It’s a game changer for YOUR performance; YOUR resilience, YOUR success.
Juggling careers, businesses and still navigating the phone calls and needs from growing kids and ageing parents needing support is a lot.
Being split into 45 different directions; work needs, life needs, personal needs, parent needs, kid needs, financial needs health needs….and the menopause needs is a lot; but you know it doesn’t have to be it all.
It doesn’t have to be acceptance.
We’re stuck with what ideas of success are; we worry we’re going to be left behind if we’re not always on - which means we’re always on scanning for danger, always on high alert. We’re bombarded constantly with what performance looks like. We don’t have any space left whether we’re picking our kids up from school, making all the appointments, attending all the events, being fun mum, the best boss, an empathetic leader and handling all the pressure. Maybe it’s time to unperform; to take the mask off; to stop commodotising our lives motivated by the fear of what if.
You are paying way too much mental rent to be always on all the time, to be constantly performing. There’s too much at stake; the cost is too high - the cost is you; your worth; your ability to crack on as you cruise closer and closer to burn out.
Work with me on a 121 with CIYP and I will bring board level expertise, brain science backed knowledge and realistic and practical frameworks that will help you create your success not avoid your failure.
FACT: It’s time to stop subscribing to success as a commodity. t’s time to rethink and redefine it to bring you peace, joy, freedom, flexibility
FACT: You have a choice what you do next.
FACT: The biggest obstacle you face is your learning behaviours; your learned systems of what you should be doing.
If you’re wondering where your energy and your spark has gone, if you’re craving purpose, clarity and focus, there is something you can do about it. It’s not ‘just’ about slapping on the patches.
High achievers, high functioning, always on women battle with their own mindset constantly - to not be seen as a failure, to be good enough, to make all those moments count, to always performing, always having all the answers.
It’s time to do things differently. To unperform, to redefine what success looks like, to stop striving for the commodities; to stop heroing the hardship.
Working with me; you will:
have more time to figure out what “all the things” are that you actually want to do.
get unstuck.
banish the self-doubt, the overwhelm
stop playing catch up or that the whole day wouldn’t go to sh*t when that one thing doesn’t go to plan.
stop being distracted all the time, be more focused, more intentionally present
have support to lean into rather than everyone leaning on you.
take action confidently and with clarity.
create better boundaries, learn how to say “no” and actually MEAN it.
wake up every day and build your day around your energy rather than reacting to all the needs that come rushing in from the first scroll on the phone.
show up every single goddamn day without apology
have a wingwoman to champion you, cheerlead you - and also kindly challenge you
You CAN do more than just accept the chaos, you can challenge the status quo without having to run away from it all or sit in the car muttering FFS on repeat.Together we will redefine your passion, reframe your purpose, we will press the reset button so you can re-imagine, re-purpose and re-define who you want to be today.
Passion is a significant multiplier of human performance.
It’s time to get clear on your passion, your purpose, your values, your why and
multiply your performance and potential in all
areas of your life.
Meet your Coach in your Pocket
I’m Sarah, your slightly sweary Coach in Your Pocket here to help you unlock your potential.
Give me eight weeks and I’ll give you the tools, frameworks, the ability to switch your mindset, to celebrate you, make an impact and be intentional about what you do.
I do this by teaching you how to think differently, feel differently and act differently.
I will guide you, coach you, challenge you, champion you, help you unlock your potential, live life with no regrets. You will need to take the action.
And before you say "who’s she to talk on this?!"
I've 51 years of lived experience, 30 years of working with global businesses and individuals, and 22 years of parenting experience.
So I know a little bit about juggling careers, building careers, about motherhood, about protecting relationships and all the other stuff in between.
But let’s face it - it’s got to be more than lived in experience. It’s got to be about qualifications, expertise and experience.
I've not just got the lived-in experience, I've got the qualifications to back it up. I'm an award-winning trainer, NLP Practitioner, facilitator, advanced coach & people director.
I provide coaching programmes steeped in practical frameworks, I'm going to ask you challenging questions, probably trigger you a little bit and stretch you. I’m not just going to be your coach, I’m going to be your teacher in frameworks, in techniques, in mindset shifting to reframe your way of thinking to be the person you are meant to be, motivated by seeking to create who you want to be NOT what you want to have.
I'll help you get comfortable with the uncomfortable because that's the only way we can practically address that feeling that you've not done what you were supposed to in life and kick it in the arse.
No change has ever been made alone. Not one person knows the answer but through the lens of another we can see a different way of thinking - this is the power of a coaching programme.
I’m here to teach you how to…
Simplify your systems, managing your energy, not your time
Analyse and minimise the distractions in your life
Reduce overwhelm and manage stress
Be intentional with all your actions, instead of spending every day simply reacting
Claim your space, get clear on what you want and own it, no apologies
Build your self-belief systems and work on that imposter syndrome
Create strategies for managing your mental load
Take confident action to create impact
Get unstuck on your goals, ambitions and purpose
Keep the promises you make to yourself, redefine what is possible for you
Unlock your potential, start a business, leave a business, claim your space, get a promotion
And before you think Jeez Louise, not another long list of things to add to my already impossible schedule.
Don’t worry, I’ve got you.

So what’s the investment you are making in yourself?

You will need to pay upfront for the coming month.
I am a stickler for boundaries around payments.
I will be your personal cheerleader, your champion of change, your accountability buddy whilst you become the mistress of your own mindset.
