💌 I really didn't expect this starting out

Hi friend,

May today bring with it....Dreaminess.

The kind of dreaminess where you stare out the window, daydream wistfully, and fully indulge in your creative, creative imagination.

✨✨✨✨✨✨ ✨✨✨✨✨✨ ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

I’ve hit some unexpected milestones in my business and they're not what you think.

Not revenue targets.
Not # of followers.
Not the kind that lands you on a “30 Under 30” (ahem 40) list.

I’m talking about the ones that make you pause and think:
“Wait…this is my life now?”

Like:

🔥 Got ​roasted on Reddit​ for my website (and surviving, mind you!)
🗺️ Coached senior women in tech across a whopping 7 countries.
😭 Teared up on a call with a woman who finally set her boundaries with her coworkers and got her life back. We were both SO DAMN PROUD.
💔 Received over 24 rejections last year and made it out alive (heh).
🎁 Gifted holiday swag from a client’s company (coziest hoodie ever 💯).
🎉 Opened applications for the 6th (count em, 6!) cohort of ​
AuthenTech

None of these were on the "roadmap."

But oh my god, am I lucky to have experienced them.

They remind me that good things can show up in unexpected packages.

And it's up to me to really take it in and savor it as a gift.

If you’re building something of your own and/or trying something new—especially if it feels slow or uncertain, you've got this. I swear.

What’s one unexpected win you’ve had lately?
(Hit reply. I'll read and respond!)

❤️ Rooting for you,
Sarah

P.S. A lot of these moments started inside AuthenTech—my group program for senior women in tech designing careers that feel energizing and aligned. And applications for the next cohort, starting April 21st are open!

Curious what that could look like for you?

Start With Hello is a weeklyish newsletter of quips, tips + proven strategies specifically designed for women in tech who are ready to feel more like the energized and damn cool person they were 5 years ago.

It’s written by Sarah, a coach, founder, and Sushi Go aficionado. I offer 1:1 coaching and a very special group program called AuthenTech. If you’re curious, I’ve got you - book a snack-sized curiosity chat.

Please forward this to a friend if they’d find it interesting AND have a jazzy, spectacular kind of day⚡️
