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

5 out of 5 stars
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.
