You are here in this world to be yourself, to live a purposeful, joyful life.Welcome to this site! My name is Sarah and I am a life and career coach with over 20 years' experience working in private practice. I provide coaching services online across Australia and New Zealand, and face to face in Perth, Western Australia.
The fact that you are here reading this is no accident. It means you are looking for change. This is an exciting point for you to reach because it means that no matter what your current circumstances are, you are ready to commit to your own learning, development and growth. I approach my role as your coach as being a positive mirror for you, reflecting back to you who you are. Together we explore what is happening for you right now and how you are creating your life's experience. We clearly establish what you want, identify any limiting beliefs that might be causing roadblocks, and then plot the best way to go about achieving your goals. My Clients Here are some of the reasons clients want to work with me: |
They want real clarity about next steps in their life and career so they can feel more control and greater empowerment in their life.
I strongly subscribe to the notion that if you "give a person a fish you feed them for a day; but teach a person to fish and you feed them for a lifetime". I provide you with carefully tailored support, guidance to develop personal insight and skills development that will serve you well for the rest of your life. Deep inner work in our discussions, including a review of where you have come from, where you are and where you want to be, is combined if needed with new skills development (for example career management skills, leadership skills, communication skills, how to influence etc). Our conversations are a dialogue we move through together in which you experience ever deepening states of awareness. This builds confidence and self belief. Practical action steps are identified and applied so you can express yourself with clarity and ease and achieve the changes you want to see in your life. Transformation At any point in your life change is available for you, whether to improve on where you are currently, or to make big shifts. Awareness is key. I would love to work with you. You can call me anytime, if I am busy please leave a message and I will call back soon after: Australia and New Zealand: +61 452 478 862 Best Wishes, Sarah |

About Sarah Newton-Palmer
What are you looking for?
This is the first question I ask my clients and it is usually not an easy question to answer. Often the issue presenting is not the real issue. A big part of my job as your coach is to help you identify what is really going on for you. That's because if anything is to change in your life something must first change within you. Our life experience, how we respond to it, is very much dependent on what we are thinking and believing. Until we become conscious of the patterns that drive our actions, those patterns, and not you, are in control.
I know this from first hand experience. My own life and work has evolved through several iterations as I have learned, made lots of mistakes and gradually become more conscious. From ballet dancer to fulltime mother to leadership development specialist to life coach and grandmother, I have gradually found out that I am driven by a love of ideas, like truth and integrity expressed in a myriad of ways in ordinary everyday life; the beauty of treading a meaningful path, helping others, having fun, not just for self but to serve the world. So far it has been a colourful, often exciting and fulfilling journey with many peaks and troughs that have taught me courage, resilience and some wisdom. All this I hope for my clients. I love supporting clients to have a transformational coaching experience by achieving profound personal insights, establishing real enduring self belief, growing and developing a new or renewed appreciation for who they are, how they express themselves and what they contribute to this amazing world.
