I’ve been told I’m the antidote to toxic-positivity…
I’m good with that.

About Sarah

  • Individuality and finding your own path.

  • Fresh fruit. All kinds.

  • Places you can hear the breeze, see the sky, and catch a beautiful sunrise.

  • Deep conversations and meaningful connections.

  • Double denim. Always and forever.

I’m totally into:

  • Doing what everyone else does because it’s “cool.”

  • Cheese. Especially melted.

  • Loud, huge, urban cities. (Even though I was born and raised in NYC!)

  • Small talk and surface level interactions.

  • The Jeffrey Campbell Lita shoes I bought in 2011.

And avoid…

My Word: Curated (As of 4/24)

My Self-Love Battlecry: When I live Curated, I am intentional with what takes my time, my energy, and my space. All things are selected carefully to elevate my lived experience and help me feel more joyful, aligned, and healthy.

How I’m using my current Self-Love To Do List: COMING SOON!

My Story

Ten years ago, I had a bursting-at-the-seams closet full of trashed clothes with the tags still on and a phone full of surface-level texts from guys I didn’t actually care about—just trying to fill the void. I looked like I had it all together. Spoiler alert: I didn’t.

Here’s the truth: I was deeply co-dependent. I outsourced my sense of self to everyone but me. I chased approval like it was oxygen. And underneath all that, my (very overweight) body was in crisis. I couldn’t walk a single city block without stopping in pain. I couldn’t stand at my kitchen sink long enough to do the dishes—my back screamed, my knees buckled. The circumference of my life was shrinking by the day. And there I was, performing the role of “Sarah” in a life-script I had let everyone else write.

Fast forward to today. Spoiler alert #2: I still don’t have it all together. (And if someone says they do? I’ll bet an imaginary dollar they’re lying.)

But what I do have is a hell of a lot more meaningful.

I have a value system built around what truly matters to me. I know who I am. I understand the coping mechanisms I used (and abused), and I’ve learned how to face them head-on—without shame. I trust myself now. I’ve done the soul work. I’ve sat in the discomfort. I stopped numbing out. And I’ve built a life that feels honest—not just presentable.

My closet is organized.
My relationship to intimacy has completely transformed.
And I’ve slowly lost over 120 pounds (and counting) by healing my relationship with food and learning how to move in ways that support me.

I’m older now, yes. But I’m also a realer, stronger, and more grounded than I’ve ever been. A more honest version of myself. And honestly? I wouldn’t trade that for anything.

Now, I help other women do the same. 

When it comes to work, I’ve “called” the Bellagio fountains on cue. I’ve helped bambi-eyed, rookie male “entertainer” pick out his first c*cksock. I turned a failing plus-size clothing brand into a profitable and financially robust business. But the work I’m proudest of? Helping plus-size women learn to value themselves—just a little more.

As a plus-size woman, I’ve often been the biggest body in the room. For most of my life, I didn’t think much of it—until 2016.

I was in constant physical pain, emotionally stuck, and desperate for something to change. I searched everywhere for inspiration—for someone who looked like me. Someone who wanted to feel better in her body, but even more than that… just wanted to be fcking happy.*

I couldn’t find her. So I became the person I needed to see. 

That’s when I started sharing my journey publicly—not as a coach, guru, or influencer, but as a human being telling the truth. Through every chapter—body image, food, toxic relationships—I’ve led with radical vulnerability.

Here’s what I know now:

It doesn’t matter how much you weigh, how old you are, or how many “mistakes”  you think you’ve made. If you’re here, you can create change.

We don’t heal through shame or punishment.
We heal through honesty, compassion, and a whole lot of soul work.
We heal by getting really good at being really uncomfortable.
It’s not easy. But it is possible.

I’m not a fitness influencer. I’m not here to preach body positivity or downward-dog my way into enlightenment.
I’m a storyteller. And the story I tell is my own. I tell it so that maybe you’ll feel less alone uncovering yours.

You deserve a life that feels good from the inside out.
Fueled by truth.
Anchored in self-love.
And unapologetically yours.

I don’t care how old you are or what you weigh. I don’t care about the sh*t you did in your past when you were just trying to feel more loved. What I care about, is you feeling hope that your life can change, and being empowered to take action.

My passion is making it accessible for you to come to the table of your personal growth. I’m not a therapist, your answer, or your “solution.” Rather, you can consider me your guide, standing alongside you and helping to make intimidating things feel a little less scary.

01

The ability to grow and improve belongs to everybody. We are never too old, too heavy, or too “broken” to create a life that brings us joy from the inside out.

Three things I believe…

02

The wellness and personal growth industry has a serious inclusivity problem. Let’s fix that. Self-development isn’t reserved for slender, young, conventionally “pretty” people. It’s for all of us.

03

The only path to real, lasting change is through self-love. You can chase quick fixes, but true transformation only happens when you dig deep and walk through your own hard sh*t—with compassion, not punishment.
