The Beginning....
Outline Your Legacy Session
We collaborate in real-time to assemble your rich expertise or captivating life story into a book outline that serves as your plan for the journey ahead. You “brain dump” all of your abstract, big-picture ideas during the session and together, we begin to shape them into a solid framework, find a coherent narrative of themes and sketch out possible chapters. Right before your eyes, we take raw ideas and transform them into a strong, focused, and exciting foundation for your book that you can put into play immediately.
What You Get:
- 45-minute Zoom private coaching session with a writing expert
- Written version of your outline
- A clear vision for your real-life book!
Value: $250

Build Your Legacy Session
We build on the foundation we laid in the Outline Your Legacy Workshop. We bring out the nuances of the book, and may discuss elements of storytelling, character development (for memoirs), or how to present complex ideas engagingly (for subject matter experts). We talk through potential obstacles you may face and I give you strategies for overcoming them.
What You Get:
- 2-hour Zoom private coaching session with a writing expert
- Mindset and accountability coaching
- Detailed Table of Contents

Testimonials
Hi There!
I’m Sarah
I’m a writer and editor with over 25 years of experience and have helped my clients secure over $30 Million in deals and opportunities.
My Back Story
I landed a work study job in the Writing Center at DePaul University in Chicago helping other students write, and everything fell into place. Writing and editing became my vocation. I fell in love with process of teaching, editing, and most importantly—helping people heal and embrace their own authentic voice. Nothing brings me more joy than watching the pride and joy that emerges in someone when their ideas shine on paper just as brightly as they do in their head. Being able to help someone else fully express their genius is transformational. Guiding someone in harnessing their own brilliance through words—there’s nothing like it!
