Every Mind Matters.
Crafted by Evolution. Enriching Humanity.
I work with neurodivergent people to navigate challenges, identify their strengths, and leverage them for success. I partner with leaders who want to better understand the richness of different neurotypes and cognitive styles within their team and organisations that are ready to create environments where everyone, of every neurotype, can do their best work.
I help you find practical ways to support people and teams to thrive through thoughtful, tailored training and advice that recognise the value of every kind of mind.
About Sara
I’m not your typical coach —I’m a Board Chair, Non-Executive Director, ex-CEO, and a proud neurodivergent thinker.
As an Autistic person with ADHD, I spent years trying to blend in. I knew I had potential, but I didn't know how to tap into it. For a long time, I aimed low, convinced that my unique way of thinking was a limitation. But over time, I flipped the script, leveraging my brain’s energy and quirkiness to build a career that embraced all of me.
Now, I help others do the same—people who think differently, whether they have a diagnosis or just know their brain works a little outside the box. I work with professionals to leverage their strengths for success and navigate the complexities of high-pressure roles.
I also support organisations looking to embrace diverse cognitive styles. I help organisations create environments where all perspectives are valued and every voice contributes to better outcomes. I believe great things happen when neurotypical and neurodivergent minds work together.
I’m here for the late bloomers, the ahead-of-their-timers, and the trailblazers who want to understand themselves fully so they can bring their absolute best to the world.
Services
1:1 Coaching
I create a coaching experience that’s uniquely tailored to you and the way you think. Many of my clients come to me with challenges like navigating difficult transitions, strained work relationships, overcoming people-pleasing tendencies, enhancing productivity, recovering from burnout, or finding their authentic leadership style. Others are dealing with the sensory challenges of their work environments or going through big career or life shifts.
Workshops
Investing in neuroinclusion is a strategic move that transforms the way your team works together. Whether your goal is to enhance team collaboration, reduce turnover, or spark innovative thinking, neuroinclusive practices have measurable impacts on organisational resilience and performance.
Keynotes
I bring a fresh perspective to the keynote stage, combining deep expertise in coaching and leadership with an open, relatable style that connects with audiences. Known for my willingness to share personal experiences with honesty and vulnerability, I invite listeners to engage with the content on a deeper level, challenging them to rethink conventional approaches to leadership, inclusion, and team dynamics.
“When we create a safe space for all types of minds to work together, we don’t just accommodate—we unlock an environment that elevates everyone.”

I bring an uncommon mix of leadership experience, empathy, insight, and a deep commitment to truly understanding people and environments. My ability to see through the eyes of others allows me to connect on a level that clients often say feels like I’ve been part of their world for decades. I don’t believe in superficial solutions or one-size-fits-all approaches; I believe in getting to the heart of what’s needed and working together to make meaningful change.
