Meet Sarah
Meet Sarah
I offer practical and empowering events for personal development and enhancing team relationships. My delivery style is upbeat, inclusive and engaging; and my aim is to empower teams and individuals to boost their performance and sense of enjoyment and fulfilment at work.
Sarah is a fantastic facilitator and creates a fun, relaxed and open atmosphere”
My first career was as a Government Legal Department (GLD) lawyer, and member of the Senior Civil Service, in both legal and policy roles. I worked on many high profile and sensitive topics, including anti-terrorism measures, dealing with the legacy of the Northern Ireland Troubles and the lockdown legislation. As a Deputy Director I was also responsible for leading teams, people development and contributing to organisational leadership.
Wanting a career change after 20-odd years as a lawyer, I now run personal development workshops and facilitate team away days for a range of organisations. With my background I am in a unique position to tailor my events specifically for legal or civil service teams as I understand the working environment and ‘speak the language’.
I am also a coach, hypnotherapist and NLP practitioner, specialising in helping people overcome low confidence, anxiety, fear of public speaking and other issues. In my personal development workshops I incorporate techniques people can use which draw on how the mind works, to enhance their confidence and success. This brings an additional element to my training, and attendees really enjoy the novelty and effectiveness of these powerful techniques.
I tailor all my events to the specific audience, having talked through your team’s circumstances in advance, and I’m also happy to develop new sessions if you want training on topics you don’t see on my website.
“I firmly believe workshops and away days should be enjoyable as well as practical”
“My events are designed to be empowering, lively and inclusive”

As well being a facilitator and delivering training, I am also a coach and clinical hypnotherapist. I offer one to one sessions for overcoming issues such as low confidence, anxiety, imposter syndrome and fear of public speaking.
