Updated October 28th 2024
I’m currently drinking an earl grey tea with oat milk, sitting in the cafe that hosts two of my boyfriend’s escape rooms (in Brighton, England). We are visiting for a holiday and so he can help set up the next escape room with his business partner.
It’s wonderful and weird to be back in the cafe I spent so much time trying to build my business in, during 2018-2020. That version of me was so determined, but so stuck. If she can hear me, I’d like to tell her she builds her dream business. I think she already knows that, because she never once considered quitting.
I’m also working on my next offer, which will be opening for the new year. Feels full circle.
Goals I’m working on right now:
Creating a new offer
7 figure business
Building a community in Sydney

Hey! I’m Sarah.
I set goals to feel alive.
Sweaty palms.
Racing heart.
Can’t think of anything else.Combining my background in Psychology with my training as a High Performance Coach, I help ambitious entrepreneurs, creatives and athletes achieve their goals.
l created this blog to share behind-the-scenes of my own goals and help you push your limits. I'm creating what I wish existed for me to consume.
People often ask if I’ll climb Mt Everest like my parents did in the 90's (as depicted in the 2015 film, Everest).
While I’ve done a little bit of mountaineering (Kilimanjaro in 2011 and Everest Base Camp in 2007) what most people don’t know is that my late dad was also an entrepreneur. I feel most connected to him through our shared love of entrepreneurship and attempting the impossible in all areas of life.
Ready to do something impossible together?

Why I Started Offering a Money-Back Guarantee
Why I started offering a Money-Back Guarantee with my coaching.
Firstly, it raised my own game.
I had to ask myself, how good would I have to be at getting people any result they want, in order to feel confident giving a money-back guarantee?
I have to give a transformation so powerful that people would never need to ask for one. I’m constantly holding myself accountable to getting people results.
Secondly, I realized something so damn important.
The time my clients waste struggling to get the result they want all by themselves can NEVER be given back. Money can be given back. But time can’t.
And if someone can get the result they want with me 10x faster and 10x better than if they did it on their own, I owe it to them to provide that.
So by offering a money-back guarantee, I’m offering people the chance to get their time-back BEFORE they lose it – with zero financial risk involved.
Achieving their impossible dream now versus achieving it in 10 years – what better value can I really give?
These two reasons make it SO easy for me to offer a money-back guarantee.
It means the real risk they're taking is NOT working with me.
Whatever result you want, I’ve got your back. Book a consult here.
Saying No is Saying Yes to Something Else
This week I’ve had a bunch of YESES.
Yes, I want to book a float in a sensory deprivation tank = No, I don’t want this shoulder pain anymore.
Yes, 3 new clients want to work with me = No, I won’t use that time for something else.
Yes, I’m buying that new jumpsuit just because it speaks to me = No, I won’t use that money for something else.
But it has also included a bunch of NOES.
No, I don’t want to do the photoshoot I booked anymore = Yes, I want to reduce my stress levels.
No, someone on my team doesn’t want to stay = Yes, I want to take over their work for a while.
No, I don’t want to be part of that community any longer = Yes, I want to surround myself with positive people.
Every yes is a no. Every no is a yes.
Everything I Have Learned in the Past Two Weeks
The last two weeks have brought me 3 new clients, 2 new YouTube videos, several new friends, and a LOT of progress.
I feel a monumental shift happening.
I wrote this list for myself privately, just to make sure I won’t forget anything I’ve learned, but it just feels too good not to share.
Deciding that everything I desire is HERE. It’s not even “coming” or “on it’s way". It’s here. I just have to wait to see it. Like when you work for your employer, and you know they are going to pay you. The money is HERE. It exists. It belongs to you by law. Now I just have to wait to see it. Same with any goal. Do the work & it is already yours.
Choosing to live in the breakthrough. Small or big. And then sharing my breakthroughs for others to benefit from too. Because that’s where I get the most benefit from others – when they share their biggest breakthroughs.
Showing up in the right energy makes a much bigger impact on myself and others than purely just showing up. I’m learning to align with the right energy before I show up every day.
Deciding that I am ready right now. I don’t need anything else to change. I have everything I need to achieve my goals, right in this moment. So get to work!
Saying “no” only when I LOVE my reasons for saying no. Saying “yes” only when I LOVE my reasons for saying yes. If I don’t love my reasons, question my decisions.
Choosing to be detached from NEEDING my goals to happen. Sometimes my brain turns the feeling of deeply desiring something into the idea that I NEED it. It’s not true. I don’t NEED anything to happen. So now that I no longer need them to happen, I can step back and breathe, and take action from a detached place.
Slowing things down a LOT. Not trying to do all the things all the time. The world will go on if I don’t post on Instagram for a few weeks.
Deciding that I have the magic pill already. I’m guilty of trying to find a magic pill that will fix all my problems. So what if I just decided that the thing I have IS the magic pill? The book I’m reading, the movie I’m watching, the coach I’m working with, the program I joined. If I truly believed I had the magic pill in my possession, how would I show up differently?
What recent breakthroughs of your own would you add to this list?
Our Brains Need Toddler Supervision
Our brains are like toddlers. They need supervision and direction. They’ll do what they’re told but sometimes not without kicking and screaming. We have to learn to manage our brain like it’s a toddler. Know that it won’t always behave, and learn to love it anyway. Tomorrow will be better.
Being Future Me
This week, I've been sitting in the fear of whether or not to book a photoshoot.
I've been wanting one for my brand for ages, but the last one I did was a. freaking. disaster.
When I got the photos back I cried.
They were so different from the beautiful photos on the photographer's Instagram that I actually googled him to see if he was a scam, just uploading other people's images, pretending they were his.
Turns out he was legit, he just didn't put in much effort into my shoot
I was super gutted.
It put me off wanting to invest in myself again.
But I wish I had. I wish I’d gotten straight back up on the horse.
I should have booked a new shoot immediately.
I was taking action from my current self. The one who was scared it would turn out badly again. So I didn’t.
But the only way to get from A to B is to BE the person at B right now.
This is what I'm working on every single day with my mindset: taking action from what my future, more successful self would do.
So today I bit the bullet I and paid for the shoot. Even though I’m scared. Because future me would do it.
And I want to be her SO bad.
Start making decisions from your future self, and one day you’ll wake up and realize you have everything you ever wanted.
And Both
What if it wasn’t either/or?
What if it was and/both?
What if you could have financial security AND take a leap with your dream?
What if you could have a boyfriend AND go out with the girls on the weekend?
What if you could have your career AND stay at home with the kids?
It’s and/both. It always is. We just have to open ourselves up to possiblity.
A Snippet From My Journal
Today I thought I would share something from my journal with you, since I’ve been journaling a TON recently and there is so much good content in there. Usually people keep their journals private, but can you imagine if we could read the journals of people we are inspired by, like Oprah, Michael Jordan or Steve Jobs?
I bet there are people out there who would do ANYTHING to read their actual thoughts.
Here’s a collection of my thoughts from the past few days. I hope they inspire you to journal your own thoughts.
How to Overcome Your Own Excuses
The last few days I’ve been working on an exercise that’s been really helping me overcome my own mind drama and excuses.
Here’s how it works:
Write out what you want at the top of a page.
Write out every single excuse your brain gives you about why you don’t already have it.
Next to every excuse, write a solution to overcome it.
Go and execute those solutions as soon as possible. Before your brain has a chance to come up with more excuses.
Simple. So. damn. effective.
These are the excuses my brain has made for why I’m not where I want to be yet with all my goals:
I don’t have professional enough photography
I haven’t learned keyword research on YouTube
I’m not “successful enough” for people to publish anything about me
My Instagram feed isn’t pretty enough
I’m not a practiced speaker
I don’t have enough followers
Yes, for real, that is the BS my brain comes up with.
It’s so embarrassing to write it down because I can see how UNIMPORTANT it all is to achieving my goals.
And yet, they still bother me.
So here is my solution:
I can either:
a) Do the thing I think I need to do just to get it off my mind
OR
b) Decide to never ever worry about it again for all eternity
Here is what I’ve decided to do:
Just get the photography done (I just posted in an NZ Facebook asking for a photographer)
Buy the YouTube course I’ve been procrastinating buying (just got on the email list for when it next opens)
Decide that I AM successful enough already, and send my content to publishers now (Tuesday I will write something to send!)
Literally never ever worry about my Instagram feed ever again for all eternity because it doesn't matter
Practice speaking and watch presentation videos on YouTube (This Thursday I will begin working on this).
Serve the audience I DO have because they are amazing (Keep showing up every day with value)
I've decided I will never. ever. let excuses stop me.
Beliefs That Made Me Money This Month
The beliefs that I have been choosing to think every single day:
I already have everything I need RIGHT NOW to make my money goals happen.
I don't need new clothes or a nicer house.
I don't need more followers.
I don't need a better website.
I don't need to buy anything else.
I don't even need to wait until I've learned anything new.
I'm ready.
Every morning I've been waking up and saying:
TODAY IS THE DAY!
How to Close the Gap Between Where You Are Now And Where You Want to Be
There’s only one way to get to where you want to go – and that’s to act like you’re already there.
If you are constantly TRYING to get somewhere, you won’t get there. Because you’ll always be taking action from a ‘trying’ mindset.
The key is to BE the person you need to be, already, right now.
What does she think?
What does she believe?
How does she act?
What does she say?
Who does she spend time with?
What does she do?
What action does she take?
How does she walk?
How does she talk?
What are her boundaries?
How does she handle negativity?
What is her mindset?
These aren’t just questions, these are journaling affirmations.
These are thoughts I ask myself every single day.
Each day, my main priority is to BE the person that I need to be.
The key is to then ACT on the answers.
