“I was blown away by how much valuable information Sara packed into the hour. She shared so many tips and insights that I had not come across before.  Reaching out to experts for business guidance can be intimidating and stressful, especially as a new business owner who can sometimes waver between burnout and relaxed gratitude.  Aside from the valuable practical information she provided, I very much enjoyed working with Sara due to her professional demeanor.”
