About
Hi! Sara here, from Switzerland 👋
I'm an ICF Certified Coach with over 400 hours of coaching experience and I help Startup founders and operators grow their businesses and their career.
The founders and operators I work with are delivering fine on paper. What brings them here is the decision they've postponed for months, a role they've outgrown without quite noticing, or a pace they've stopped believing they can hold.
In my 10 years in startups, I led HR and operations in 3 scaling businesses, pivoted to program and project management at a unicorn, worked with Accelerators on startup selection, and became myself a Founder.
How I work: direct and specific, focused on the patterns driving your decisions. I'll challenge you, and I'll be straight about what I'm seeing. I help you make meaningful choices aligned with your long-term goals, and develop a healthy and sustainable high-growth mindset.
Thanks to my experience in startups' operations, I worked with professionals at all seniority levels, with tech and business backgrounds. My mentees now are professionals and founders with 5-20 years of experience looking for growth, purpose, and direction.
We can work together on:
- starting out your new venture
- evaluating your career options and preparing a career plan
- balancing high performance with healthy habits
- understanding how stress affects your performance
- the cycle of burnout, and loss of motivation
- learning to manage up, set boundaries and expectations

What mentees say
5 out of 5 stars
Mentorship with Sara has been invaluable and completely worth it! Since we started working together in August 2024, Sara has helped me gain clarity on several key challenges I’ve been facing with my company. Her approach has been incredibly insightful, relying on a question-driven method to truly understand the areas I wanted to focus on. Only after that does she help me create actionable steps to move forward. Thanks to Sara, I now have a much clearer understanding of how to effectively manage tasks within my team, identify problems more accurately, and implement solutions in a more strategic way. We are currently working on a very big project where I am on track to becoming a more passive player in my business. Her mentorship has not only improved my business but also helped me grow as a leader. I would definitely recommend Sara as a mentor!

Sara’s mentorship was exactly what I needed during my career transition. I was feeling uncertain about my next steps and needed clarity on my direction. In just a few sessions, Sara helped me gain a clear vision and create a concrete, actionable roadmap. What I appreciated most is that she doesn’t just give advice, she is able to ask the right questions to help you figure out what you really want, then gives you the tools and structure to move forward independently. I highly recommend Sara to anyone navigating career transitions or looking for strategic guidance.

I've had a great experience with Sara's coaching at work and in personal growth areas. During our mentorship program, she has consistently helped me gain clarity and make more informed decisions. She takes notes during every meeting to track all our discussions and progress. Moreover, she provides tailored exercises to reinforce and follow up on our sessions. Highly recommended!
