A creative force. The range, energy and quality of the work Sarah delivered was astonishing. Her joy in directing was palpable.

Exceptional - innovative, challenging and very effective.”

I was given a speaking assignment deadline, feeling nervous and out of my depth. Sarah helped me craft and refine the script, coached me through the delivery and also supported me with interview preparation — which got me into Cambridge University!

I felt clear, compelling, and confident - like a TED talk.

The biggest impact, as a natural introvert, the skills I learned with Sarah have made a tangable difference to my whole life — I now speak up and communicate with clarity and confidence in meetings, engaging with clients and senior stakeholders. Sarah is the person to go to.

Made me glad to be alive.

Sarah has supported me enormously over the past few years, helping me to develop a more engaging public speaking style and presence. She’s great at explaining things, making sessions fun and highly very effective.

Bringing out my key messages, Sarah has helped me share and clarify my thoughts clearly. Helping me prepare for multiple formats; presentations to large audiences, workshops for smaller teams to radio interviews. I now feel confident in short notice interviews, something I could never have imagined doing before working with Sarah.

One of the best things about working with Sarah, is the focus on how I can remain ‘me’ whilst presenting.
— Claire Artley - COO Be Outstanding, Director HEKU

Having met and seen Sarah speak at TED, we knew she’d be the perfect fit to work with our communications team on a participatory storytelling experience for a client. Incredibly conscientious.

Sarah was our narrator and worked alongside us from concept, collaboration, rehearsals to reality.

Her flexibility, creativity and openness were attributes that make Sarah a real joy to partner with.
— Kirsty Becket - H+H Communications
My team needed more confidence and skills in presenting, storytelling and authority as part of their professional development, we partnered with Sarah - who we highly value. Employee performances, bottom lines and relationships with clients have significantly improved - which means I can step away from over managing my team.
