Hi there! I’m Sara, a career coach with some perhaps unconventional, some might say radical perspectives on work. This is a space for real and honest conversation about finding fulfillment in your career, specifically all the ins and outs of making a career change toward work that you actually want to do. And even if you don’t know what you want to do, or feel like you have no clue, that’s ok. We’ll talk about that too.
Join me to inspire your own journey of living your most authentic, free and fully expressed life. Yes, we’re gonna talk about work, but also life! Because it’s all connected, loves. We’re gonna get existential, spiritual and deeply reflective about what’s really going on inside. What we’re really talking about is how you want to spend your time here. And you get to create anything you want.
Is it messy? 100% Yes. Making changes to find alignment is deeply emotional and personal and brings up all your fears and conditioning. But if we move through it all, on the other side, we get to be fully here in the world as ourselves!
If what I’m talking about resonates with what you’re moving through in your own life and you would like some support, I offer one-on-one coaching sessions. You can learn more at syoungwang.com

Being Willing To Hear What We Want Through The Fear with Brita Dawn
I sit down again with my bestie Brita Dawn to unpack some of the ways we avoid acknowledging or acting on our desires for change in our work. There’s so much fear. Fear of getting “wrong” and discovering the change it not what you really want, fear of changing your self-narrative or identity, fear of what others might think if you have a nonlinear resume, fear of asking for what you want and getting a ‘No’, and fear not knowing how you’re going to get what you want so you do a fuzzy check out and avoid looking at your desires all together! The truth is we’re human beings, we’re dynamic. We’re always in flux and in transition. So, how can we find the willingness to meet ourselves and our changing desires/wants?

You Get To Be Where You Are
Maybe we can let life unfold, maybe we don’t have to try so hard, or at all…if we’re willing to let go of control.

The Mental Tracking Hijacking Your Life And What It Means to Let It Go To Discover Your True Self
Have you noticed how much of your day is directed by thoughts referencing external directives on what you should be doing? In this episode I unpack this mental tracker, explore the process of letting it go, and discuss how your true self and aligned life is discovered only when we move from the energy that’s coming through us, not the mental tracker.

When A New Job Is Not What You Expected
In this episode I tackle a topic that maybe isn’t talked about so much…when a new job just isn’t working out.

When Chronic Illness Throws Your World Upside Down
Are you experiencing a chronic illness or even just a bad case of burnout that’s making your current work unsustainable? I get it. And the deep challenges. Illness is life taking you from the game and putting you on the sidelines. But in that are some silver linings. In this episode, I share my experience of developing chronic lyme disease, how I work with others with illness/burnout, and some different (hopefully helpful!) perspectives on what you may be going through.
