WING-WOMAN FOR BOLD REINVENTION

Igniting inspiration and empowering cool women with brilliant ambition to be, do, and have exactly what they want. In business. In life. In lingerie.

Strategy. Style. Success

Begin your Reinvention

Are you fantasising about all the things you want to achieve and how incredible realising your vision will feel; but just can’t see how it’s ever going to happen? Let’s talk.

As a smart woman with aspirations for days, there’s no way you should be settling for anything less than brilliance.

When you know deep-down you’re the kind of woman who aspires to be more…, do more…, have more…, I’m here to transform your thoughts into actions, and your dreams into reality, by crafting bespoke strategies, applying personalised insights, and sharing decades of experience to unlock your true potential.

With three career pivots, two decades of delivering unique client experiences in luxurious stores, a multi-award-winning lingerie boutique, a quantum-leap-tour, and enough motivation to power a rocket to Mars; my mission is to spark the inspiration that sets real transformation in motion* and empower women to express their individuality. (In the fitting room, in the boardroom, and beyond.)
Want to elevate your business to the next level? I’ve got the road-map to make that happen.
Want to reinvigorate life and align reality with your greatest vision? I’ll help you realise your wildest dreams with ease.
Want to feel elegant, exciting, confident, and sexy in show-stopping lingerie? I’ll source a selection of highly recommended styles that are a pleasure to wear.
As your personal reinventress I’ll empower you to get clear on what’s most important, expand your vision beyond what you ever believed was possible, and guide you to success step-by-step.
Less leaving it to chance. More progress, success, and sexiness!
*And you were wondering how a lingerie expert paired personal styling with business strategy! 😉

With an ability to make overcoming any challenge feel effortless (classic Taurus – intuitive and methodical); a track record for staying true to the vision and bringing the boldest dreams to life (a highly successful luxury boutique; solo-trips to Italy, Ibiza, LA, a five-month quantum-leap tour of Australia…); and a courageous left-of-mid-life career-pivot, I know it’s the daily commitment to growth, not just giant leaps, that lead to real transformation.
You can be more…, do more…, have more…
And I’m here to transform your thoughts into actions, and your dreams into reality.

I’ve known Sarah for over a decade since she ran her hugely successful, award-winning retail business, bringing innovation and a new approach to customer attention. ...Working with well established & respected brands she's always displayed terrific business acumen, bringing her unique talents to the service of her customers and the brands she worked with, helping them to grow their profiles. She always creates new opportunities in a competitive marketplace and would be a highly desirable business mentor or partner. I admire her determination and unique slant on the business.

Pamela

Quite simply there is no-one doing what Sarah does - describing herself as a lingerie stylist doesn’t do her justice. She has extensive experience of the lingerie and luxury market, a deep knowledge of her products and a sincere appreciation of women’s psychology in the fitting room, evidenced by the many many long-term relationships she's developed with her clients. Her personal shopping experience is second-to-none. A very special retail expert.

Vicky

Sarah provides such excellent service. She just finds me the most perfect set every time and I feel like a million dollars. She really does go beyond.

Tracey

Having such a good road-map helped me survive and grow, and has enabled me to continually invest in myself with training and buy into new lines to keep my customers engaged. I can’t think of a better blessing for a start-up business than having you by their side.
