Helping ambitious people navigate what's next with clarity, confidence and purpose.

Work With Me

You don't necessarily need a new life. But you might need the space to step back, think clearly and decide what comes next. That's where Big Sky Coaching comes in.

Success on paper doesn't always feel like success in reality.

Perhaps your business has grown, your career looks great from the outside, or you've reached a goal you've worked towards for years - but something still feels off. You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected from yourself, or quietly asking: "Is this really it?"

As Seen In:

Reconnect with yourself and what matters most.

Clarify your values, strengthen relationships and build authentic confidence from the inside out.

Connection

Gain clarity on what's next.

Whether that's a business goal, career change or personal transition, we'll create a practical plan—and the accountability to make it happen.

Purpose

The Big Sky Framework
Everything we do together is built around four pillars.

Create space to breathe.

Reduce overwhelm, strengthen resilience, improve boundaries and build sustainable performance so you can achieve more without burning out.

Recovery

Growth lives outside your comfort zone.

Develop confidence through action, embrace uncertainty and start making the decisions you've been putting off.

Adventure

After attending one of Sarah's winter retreats, I experienced just a glimpse of her coaching and noticed a real shift in my mindset. It gave me the confidence to join her 12-week Accelerator programme.

I couldn't recommend Sarah more highly

- Chantelle Manz 

While my business has grown financially, the greatest success has been creating a healthier, more sustainable way of working. I have a better work-life balance, spend more quality time with my family, prioritise rest and recovery, and feel energised by the work I do.

The biggest change has been my self-belief

- Sarah-Jane Doyle

I met Sarah that she would be able to help me in my business — I just didn’t realise how much. I can’t recommend Sarah enough. She has made me realise how important it is to stop, reset, and work on your business, not just in it. This is where the magic begins. It’s worth every minute.

I knew from the first moment I met Sarah

- Debbie Boxall

This isn't about pushing harder.
It's about creating lasting success that doesn't come at the expense of your wellbeing.

Using my psychology-backed Big Sky Framework, we'll help you slow down, gain perspective and build the confidence to move forward—whether that's growing your business, changing career, becoming a better leader or simply creating a life that feels more aligned.

Big Sky Coaching is for ambitious people who know they're capable of more - but aren't quite sure what "more" looks like.

You might be:

  • Growing a business and feeling pulled in too many directions.
  • Leading people while trying to avoid burnout.
  • Considering a career change or new direction.
  • Feeling stuck, overwhelmed or lacking clarity.
  • Looking for greater fulfilment in life alongside success.

Whatever brings you here, coaching gives you the time, support and challenge to move forward with confidence.

Working across psychology, coaching and adventure has taught me that the biggest breakthroughs rarely happen by sitting at a desk thinking harder.

They happen when we create space, gain perspective and reconnect with what matters most.

That's the philosophy behind everything I do.

For more than 15 years I've helped business owners, leaders and elite performers navigate pressure, uncertainty and major life transitions.

Why Work With Me?

"Sarah has a real talent for getting to the heart of what's holding you back and providing practical, tailored strategies that actually stick. I now have greater clarity, confidence and self-belief, better routines, and the tools to prioritise what matters, manage my time and make space for proper rest and recovery.

I feel calmer, more intentional and far more in control of my life. I'm achieving more, but with greater focus and less stress. I couldn't recommend Sarah highly enough and I'm excited to continue working with her."

Sarah is a top-class coach and I cannot recommend her enough!”

“I joined Sarah’s coaching programme knowing I wanted to start a business but unsure how. She guided me through the process, gave me tools to plan my next steps, and most importantly, the confidence to launch. Sarah genuinely cares about you and your business - I can’t recommend her enough!"

Frequently Asked Questions

WHO IS COACHING FOR?

Who is coaching for?

My coaching is for ambitious people who are ready for change - whether you’re growing a business, starting something new, changing career or figuring out what you want next.

I work mostly with motivated, driven women – from small business owners who want to grow sustainably, to professionals who are successful on paper but are looking for more purpose, passion or fulfilment from their work and considering a career change.

I also work particularly well with people in the wellbeing, coaching and service-based industries. Having spent nearly 15 years building businesses myself, I understand the realities of entrepreneurship.

You don’t need to have everything figured out. We’ll untangle the thoughts, work out what you really want and turn those ideas into action.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM COACHING?

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM COACHING?

Coaching gives you the space to untangle your thoughts, get clear on what you actually want and work out the actions to get you there. It’s easy to talk about making a change; actually doing it is harder. That’s where I come in – one of my strengths is helping you turn ideas into action and make them a reality.

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COACHING AND counselling?

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COACHING AND counselling?

Coaching is generally forward-focused. We’ll explore where you are now, where you want to be and what might be getting in the way, then work together on practical steps to help you move forward.

Counselling and therapy may focus more deeply on emotional distress, mental health, past experiences or trauma, and are delivered by appropriately trained professionals.

There can be some overlap, particularly because my background is in psychology, but coaching isn’t therapy and isn’t a substitute for mental health support. If I ever feel that what you’re experiencing would be better supported by a therapist or another professional, I’ll always be open and honest about that.

HOW DO I KNOW IF COACHING IS RIGHT FOR ME?

 HOW DO I KNOW IF COACHING IS RIGHT FOR ME?

If you feel stuck, know you want something different from your career, business or life, or have an idea you keep thinking about but never quite get around to doing, coaching could be a good fit.

You don’t need to come with a perfectly formed plan. Part of the process is untangling your thoughts, getting clear on what you want and working out what needs to happen next. Because it’s easy to talk about making a change – actually making it happen is the harder bit.

A free discovery call is a chance to talk through where you are, what you’d like to change and whether I’m the right person to help you turn those thoughts and ideas into something real.

HOW LONG DO I NEED TO COMMIT TO COACHING?

HOW LONG DO I NEED TO COMMIT TO COACHING?

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. I offer focused half-day intensives for those who want to tackle a specific challenge or get clear on their next steps, as well as six-month coaching programmes for deeper, longer-term support and change. On your discovery call, we can talk through your goals, budget and the different options to find the level of support that works best for you.

How do I get started?

How do I get started?

Start by booking a free discovery call. We’ll talk about where you are now, what you’d like to change and what support would be most useful. Even if we decide not to work together, you’ll come away with more clarity on what you want and some practical next steps to move you forward. There’s absolutely no obligation.
