Shed & Shine

Shed & Shine

Shed the lies and limitations,

Shine your light!

Showing up as your authentic self is the best thing you can do for this world right now.

Do you relate to any of these statements?

  • You grew up feeling like you always had to prove yourself and your worth

  • You prioritize others - boss, coworkers, family, friends, children - over yourself

  • You are great at accomplishing things that are societally acceptable, but you have a hard time prioritizing things that feed your soul

  • You know that you have limiting beliefs, but you still believe them… and want some help busting them!

  • You feel burnt out, exhausted, stressed, like you’re carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders

  • You long for more justice and peace in the world, and want to be supported by someone who “gets it”

If so, you’re in the right place.

I’m so glad you’re here.

The Shed & Shine Method:

Education

Knowledge is power.

As a professor with a Ph.D. in Organizational Behavior and a body of research related to DEI and mindfulness, I can provide the latest research on these topics as well as evidence-based exercises and practices.

You get access to a curated library of resources so that you are equipped with a wealth of information.

Embodiment

There is plenty of research supporting the importance of embodiment practices for healing and supporting the body/mind/heart, and luckily with my 10+ years of experience, I can be your one-stop shop for all things mindful movement!

As a yoga teacher, fitness instructor and meditation teacher, I will provide different embodiment practices - meditation, breath work, stretches, yoga flows, short workouts to support clients on their journey.

Empowerment

I might be your coach, but you are in the driver’s seat of your own life. I will be your cheerleader as you make the best decisions for your own life path. All the exercises and practices we do together are designed for you to feel empowered to make the next best decision for yourself.

Through our 1:1 coaching, you will see things starting to shift.

This is where the magic happens! The Shed & Shine!

What’s Included?

  • Weekly content with access to resources (e.g., articles, videos) where I break down the science to relatable terms to make the teachings applicable for you 

  • Tools for reflection and refinement (e.g., worksheets, journaling prompts, guided meditations) that help you bring more awareness to your inner world

  • Biweekly 1:1 coaching calls with me (6 Zoom calls, 60 min sessions each) to ask questions, celebrate wins, discuss next steps, identify areas of growth

  • A mid-program check-in after week 6 to assess your progress and make sure we are on the way to achieving your goals and aligned with your bigger vision

  • An exercise for every module asking you to create (either written or visual) your version of the ideal dream narrative for your life, which culminates into a finished product:

    YOUR story the way YOU envision it…

    Which you can take with you as your manual to guide your path moving forward even after our work together is done

How’s that for empowerment??

Shed & Shine Program Overview

12-week Coaching Roadmap

Six bi-weekly hourlong Zoom sessions | email support | voice & text memos

  • Week 1:

    Content on the nature of being human and the ways we have created our identities, drawing from various disciplines including psychology and spirituality.

    Week 2:

    We start our journey together exploring your identity, where it came from, any narratives you hold that may or may not be helpful on your path to growth.

  • Week 1:

    Learning about the history of oppression and stereotypes. Exercises to identify limiting beliefs and embodiment practices to support this stage of our work.

    Week 2:

    Deep coaching support on shedding narratives, cathartic session to release what is not serving you.

  • Week 5:

    A blend of science and spirituality, from research on growth vs. fixed mindset to explorations on creating magic, trusting the universe, and playing big.

    Week 6:

    Exercises on re-imagining generational well-th (hint: it’s not just about finances), dreaming what is possible, not just what is probable, and more!

  • Whew, big topics covered so far!
    We check in to make sure we’re aligned and on the right track to get you to your goals.

    It’s also a time to pause and reflect. For many of us we’re so used to going full speed, it’s a nice reminder to stop and pat yourself on the back.

  • Week 7:

    We look at why taking rest and having fun is radical social justice work, as well as resources on self-care and tips on how to protect your schedule and time both at work and at home.

    Week 8:

    Nourishing embodiment practices like yoga nidra and guided sleep meditation recordings, as well as coaching on your relationship to time, your body, rest, and more.

  • Week 9:

    Chances are, you’ve been told you’re too much or too loud, or you’ve learned not to use your voice. I cover research on why we don’t speak up as women and the negative impacts it has on our physical and mental health.

    Week 10:

    Throat chakra meditation, “My Seat at the Table” exercise for work and professional life, and voicing values exercise to identify your biggest non-negotiables.

  • Module 11:

    What would the world look like if we all operated from a place of our deepest wisdom, accessing our humanity and leading with love? There’s plenty of research to support why love (vs. fear) is the antidote to the suffering we see in the world today (see your library of resources).

    Module 12:
    Vision board, “I have a Dream” exercise, Metta (loving-kindness) meditation.

  • Every module, you’re given a homework assignment to recreate (either through writing, video, storytelling, art) a chapter of your story.

    This last session, we get to celebrate YOUR story, written BY you, FOR you.

Frequently Asked Questions

    • I appreciate the rigor of science-backed evidence with the nurturing practices of more soul-driven perspective

    • I am aware of the role of societal conditioning on my life and I am ready to let go of limiting beliefs and say no to external pressures

    • I’m itching for the “real” me to come through, I want to take up more space and speak my voice more truthfully and freely

    • I have big dreams for myself but often feel “selfish” or “irresponsible” when thinking or talking about them

    • I am extremely capable in most areas of my life, but really need some support in the areas where the focus is my own self-care

    • I know that healing happens individually but I also crave a sense of community and belonging among other like-hearted women

    • I am ready to invest in myself because ultimately a healthier, happier me is what this world needs the most

    • Are you alive in 2025?! All jokes aside, we need this work more than ever right now and I won’t be shy about saying it - we need to fight oppression at all levels to find true healing

    • While the benefits of coaching are universal, people from marginalized or minority backgrounds in the U.S. might particularly benefit more given the current climate and Sarah’s expertise in these issues

    • The program addresses specific challenges based on societal and cultural conditioning through a multi-method approach: Education, Embodiment, and Empowerment

    • You receive an expert synthesis of research-driven but relationship-focused approaches, reinforced by spiritual reflection practices

  • While we cannot guarantee specific outcomes as a result of our program, the most common results typically include:

    • finding or rediscovering your voice and learning to be comfortable speaking your truth

    • learning to be discerning about what is really worth your time and energy and including time for rest, relaxation, fun, play and creativity

    • big shifts in work like starting that business you always wanted to, or switching roles to better suit your personality, or asking for that raise and getting the promotion

    • healthier relationships with yourself, honoring self-care, and recognizing that others will respond to the way you treat yourself

    • a culminating capstone project with a new narrative written by YOU

  • The live Zoom call coaching sessions occur biweekly on the even numbered weeks (e.g., week 2, week 4). This is designed to allow the client to have ample time to review the resources in the library, practice some of the exercises, journal and reflect, and incorporate the embodiment practices they enjoy the most (e.g., yoga, meditation, breathing).

    In the coaching sessions, I will typically guide you in a grounding practice, then you have the opportunity to share any insights, questions, or concerns. We will address next steps and celebrate wins along the way. Depending on client-specific needs and desires, I will tailor the sessions (e.g., more strategy-focused or more spiritual-focused).

  • Of course, every individual is different and the coaching relationship will vary depending on specific needs. However, you will find your sweet spot in how much time you want to invest in your transformation.

    Most typically you will need:

    • Time to review the resources in the library can range from anywhere between 30 mins a week to hours (depending on how many of the resources you want to consume)

    • Time with Sarah will be bi-weekly hour long coaching calls (60 mins every other week)

    • Time to work on “homework” , which I will most likely give you after our calls, which will take as much time you want to dedicate on your own growth and transformation (e.g., working on your website, drafting the email to your colleague, or dedicating time to your own self-care practices)

  • Research shows that habits take time to develop, and healing requires both steady sustained support as well as deep inner work, which typically cannot happen in a one-and-done coaching session.

    Shed & Shine’s 12-week coaching program is designed with your success in mind.

    That being said, if you desire single coaching sessions I am happy to work with you, please reach out to me here.
