I'm a trauma-trained nervous system priestess and somatics teacher, here to help you heal your ´stuff´, grow a regenerative business and become a legendary facilitator. 

Right, so, here's my journey in a nutshell:

• Born in UK. Child of the 80s wahoo. Aquarius Sun, Libra Moon, Virgo Rising.
• Was an archaeologist for over a decade and got to dig up a lot of cool sh*t.
• Got my PhD. 
• Left academia because, well, Aquarius.
• Started teaching yoga in tropical places full time and realised, holy sh*t, I’m a channel / witch / healer. Parents were not pleased.
• Settled on the word priestess. Parents gave up at this point.
• Started coaching clients 1:1 and in groups.
• Gained a fairly good reputation.
• Wrote a book (The Way of the Priestess). It did quite well.
• Started taking a somatic nervous system approach to client work and became trauma resolution-trained.
• Gained an even better reputation.
• Created my own methodology called Regenerative Alchemy, which helps people turn pain and challenge into healing, growth, purpose and resilience.
• Started training people in this approach. Rave reviews.
• And now? I’m still working with clients 1:1, writing my second book (the Medicine is You) and will open enrolment to the Regenerative Alchemy Coach training in the autumn (or ´fall´ for you American types).

My clients are amazing women who doubt themselves and their priestess medicine, but find courage and confidence through working together. 

Our work together usually centres on unhooking them from the internalised patriarchal, colonial and toxic capitalist conditioning that has led them to neglect their needs, overshoot their boundaries, and hide their deepest and truest brilliance. 

We create deep, sustainable and long-lasting change (Regenerative Alchemy™) though:

1. Befriending the Nervous System

2. Processing Unresolved Wounding (Trauma) 

3.  Connecting To and Embodying Their Unique Medicine 

 As a result, my clients experience things such as:

• An increased capacity to receive.
• Feeling calmer and more relaxed.
• Feeling more joy, nourishing richness, and flow.
• Being more present with the ones you love.
• Feeling more full and satisfied.
• Unleashed creativity, deepened magic 
• Deep clarity and trust in the next chapter.
• A cleaned up relationship with money so that it feels healthy, light and expansive
• Deep inner safety and embodied purpose
• More magnetism to replenishing resources and magical opportunities

The People Who've Shaped Me:

I'm the wife of Mauro, dog mum to Manny, daughter to Chris and John, sister to Tom and Nev, granddaughter to Elsie, Michael, Eleanor and Sid.

I was born in the UK

Heritage: English / Eastern European (my grandad Michael was from Poland and my great grandmother Catarina was from Ukraine)

How the Business is Run:

I run a small independent business that specialises in personal transformation and professional coaching / consulting.

The business aims to offer high quality services that hold space for people to come into their own sovereign power.

We take a trauma-informed approach, meaning that we understand the role that trauma plays in society, and our coaching, marketing and selling practices are designed to minimise harm as best we can. 

We're advocates for Mother Earth, meaning that our messaging and business practices aim to centre Her.

We have a small team, supervised by Abi Chandler from The Holistic Assistant. These team members run the day to day operations of my group programmes. 

The Financials:

20% of revenue goes straight to government taxes (booooo!)

50% of the company revenue goes to Sarah's salary 

20% goes to team costs and running expenses.

5% goes into Sarah's private pension fund - an ethical pension fund that focuses on investing in regenerative social enterprises.

Up to 5% of profit is shared between our partners - Ecologi, Rainforest Trust, Treesisters, Pachamama Alliance and Lend With Care, as well as other more grassroots organisations, when the opportunity for donation arises.
