Female Leadership
& Career Coaching
INDIVIDUALS, GROUPS & TRAININGS
Welcome, I’m happy you’re here!
I'm Sarah and I accompany female professionals who are seeking change or moments of transition along their career path. Women, who are in leadership roles or making their way towards it: as employees or entrepreneurs.
Based in Amsterdam, I work in English and German, both in person and online. I’m particularly passionate about Female Leadership and empowering women who feel ready to take over the responsibility of their career and professional development.
If you’re navigating a career transition, questioning your next step, or wanting to grow into your leadership role, I offer a space to reflect, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence.
I offer coaching in group settings that invite shared learning, reflection, and exchange. A particular focus lies on Female Leadership & Empowerment, supporting women who want to grow, connect, and lead with more confidence.
I work with organizations that want to strengthen female professionals among their employees, developing leadership skills, and resilience. I support employees in stepping into new roles, developing within consisting ones and create spaces for reflection and meaningful development.
My approach
My coaching approach is collaborative and reflective. There are no pre-set answers, but a safe space for exploration, awareness, and progress. I believe that professional development is closely connected to personal growth - that is way I pay close attention to you as a person within your professional role. As my client you benefit from my leadership experience in the arts and media industry, my consulting expertise, and my knowledge of holistic disciplines. I integrate psychodynamic and systemic perspectives to help you uncover unconscious dynamics and patterns.
Based in Amsterdam, I work both on-site and online, with clients in the Netherlands and beyond. Can't wait to meet you!

About me
My professional background is in cultural management and the media industry – areas in which I have worked for over ten years in various institutions and companies. From agency work to state-run cultural institutions to public-sector structures, I have become familiar with a range of working environments throughout my career. With a leadership experience in digital communications, PR, marketing & sales, and event management, my career has taken me into the field of classical music, specifically the opera and concert industry. I know for myself what it means to navigate complex structures and leadership responsibility. During my work as a cultural manager, I have also increasingly engaged with holistic concepts of personal development in recent years. As a certified yoga and meditation teacher, I bring a holistic perspective to my coaching work, integrating belief work and subconscious processes into the development journey. This approach strengthens the connection between body, mind, and soul, supporting a sustainable success mindset and mental well-being. It provides the foundation and tools needed to grow into conscious, resilient leadership. When desired, I help my clients identify and release mental blocks using targeted techniques, enabling them to fully realize their potential. Because when we are grounded and internally strong, professional challenges can be navigated effectively - and in a healthy way. I live with my partner and son in Hamburg and Amsterdam. I offer coaching sessions in person and online.
“What stood out to me most is how truly tailor-made her approach was, not just to my overall situation, but even within each individual session. She adjusted the exercises, the pace, and the focus to exactly what I needed in that moment. Because of that, I made a huge amount of progress in a very short period of time and was able to make important decisions much earlier than I otherwise would have. Overall, I reached my goals faster, with more clarity and confidence and that’s largely thanks to her intuitive, personalized style. Sarah is truly exceptional at what she does."

Client
"Working with Sarah helped me on a much deeper level than I initially expected. While, with her support, I did achieve my original goal of an early promotion, the true value for me lay in her holistic approach. Her perspective that personal patterns and professional behavior are inseparably connected opened up a space for reflection far beyond traditional career topics. With great clarity, empathy, and well-chosen methods, Sarah helped me bring to light themes I had not previously been aware of. Especially on a personal level, there were unexpected and deeply valuable breakthroughs that continue to shape how I work today, make decisions, and relate to myself.I left the coaching with greater inner clarity, renewed motivation, and a strengthened trust in my own perception. Anyone seeking genuine, sustainable development will find in Sarah an exceptionally competent and impactful coach.

Client
"Sarah creates a calm and trusting atmosphere in which you immediately feel at ease and comfortable opening up. She listens with exceptional attention and not only remembers details but also recognizes connections across multiple sessions that you may not even be aware of yourself. Themes are further developed over the course of the sessions, which made the coaching truly tailored to me.
Whenever helpful, she brings in relevant examples, references, and exercises. We discussed and reflected on the results of these exercises together.
What was particularly valuable for me were the new perspectives she opened up — viewpoints from which I would never have considered certain situations before. Since the coaching, I consciously apply these new angles in a wide range of (work-related) situations, which has made the coaching experience deeply sustainable for me."
Martha F.
Client
"The coaching sessions with Sarah was a truly valuable step at a time when I was at a turning point in my career and seeking greater clarity about my next steps. With a high level of professional expertise, empathy, and—above all—structure, she supported me at a crucial stage in my career and throughout the application process. I found it particularly helpful that she made my individual strengths and resources visible and helped me develop realistic yet motivating next steps.
I left the coaching with greater self-confidence and a renewed perspective on my professional situation. Anyone looking to make a career change, reposition themselves professionally, or seek support during the application process is in excellent hands with Sarah."
Julia W.
Client
"Before the coaching, I struggled with the feeling of not being able to do justice to both my work and my family, and I was searching for a sustainable way to work part-time in the cultural sector. In a short period of time, the coaching helped me set clear boundaries and communicate them confidently. I now experience calmer work phases, greater balance in my everyday working life, and a positive impact on both myself and my family. Seeing such concrete change within just a few months has been deeply enriching and motivating. In the cultural sector, where commitment often exceeds one's own limits, this was a decisive step towards greater clarity and balance in my everyday working life."
Janina Z.
Client
"Sarah is a very caring professional. She is very good listener and give good attention to details that help me to reflect about not only my own limitation but mostly on my own values."
