Hi, I'm Sara.
I help people turn their stories, ideas, and expertise into powerful narratives that influence and endure.
You have a story worth telling. My role is to help you gain clarity, find meaning in your experiences, and shape them into a powerful narrative for the future you want to create.
Clients I’ve worked with have gone on to publish New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestsellers, won awards from Nautilus, Bloomsbury, Axiom, Reviewers Choice, Indie Excellence, and Independent Press, and had their books translated into 30+ languages and sold around the world.
I work with clients through ghostwriting, collaborative writing, developmental editing, and coaching.
After working with hundreds of authors, I've distilled what I’ve learned about writing and publishing into my book, Writing on Purpose, a guide to help both first-time and seasoned authors write a meaningful book that will last.
Because creativity and healing are inseparable, our work together doesn’t just produce a book—it often uncovers hidden layers of your story, offering personal insight and transformation along the way.

Why Smart People Struggle To Write Books
By the time he came to me, my client had been trying to write his book for about five months.
"It's just not clear yet," he said to me, frustration plain on his face. "I have so much to say but somehow it's not coming out right."...
Write a manifesto. It will change your life.
“Alright, one more thing,” my marketing coach told me. We’d just spent the hour talking through the stumbling blocks in my business, one that I enjoyed but found draining (marketing has never been my forté). I felt hopeful but weary.
“Your assignment is to write a manifesto before our next call…”
How Stories Are Used Against You
We're living through a battle for our attention, one where stories are the primary weapon. This isn't science fiction; it's happening right now, every day, across every platform you use. Let's say you're scrolling through social media when a post about a politician, company, or social issue instantly enrages you. You go from zero to ninety in seconds. What do you do next?...
