What is an Elementum Certified Coach?

Elementum Coaching Institute is a world-class, integrative coach training program designed for those who want to create real, lasting impact. Founded by four industry leaders with decades of experience, Elementum blends the most effective tools from somatic work, trauma-informed coaching, emotional intelligence, and relationship dynamics into one powerful certification. This isn’t about surface-level strategies — it’s about developing coaches who lead with integrity, adaptability, and depth. Every Elementum graduate has been through a rigorous, embodied training process that requires them to apply the work to their own life first. The result? Confident, capable coaches who know how to meet clients where they are and guide them through meaningful, sustainable change.

Change starts the moment you fully commit to something new.

It is never too late to let go of past stories, the ones that are keeping you trapped in a pattern that exhausts you.

By embracing new ways of experiencing life, a new way of being emerges that was not possible before. Redefine your relationship to self and by extension others, from the inside out. Why? So you can lead the life you wanted or desire but do not know how to embrace.

Plant the seed of radical self-leadership and love today, so it can grow tomorrow.

Here lies freedom. Your future self is already celebrating.

I see you. I have been you.
I support you.

I see you.
I have been you.
I support you.

Does this sound familiar?
 

→ You often feel alone and unappreciated.

→ Exhaustion is your constant companion.

→ It seems like you've tried everything with no results.

→ The term "self-care" has lost its meaning.

→ Resentment simmers beneath the surface.

→ Your hard work goes unnoticed, and you crave recognition.

→ Your life revolves around others, leaving no time for yourself.

→ You find yourself envious of others, longing for their success.

Experience the profound safety that I create around you, to be in full expression of all of your light and shadows. I lead with boldness and passion for your vision.

Together we will navigate, charting the path you have always desired.

I'm Sarah. I was the mother/wife that did it all.

And still felt like it was never enough!

In 2018, my family of 4 moved to Croatia onto a sailboat, to live my then husband’s lifelong dream of sailing the world. It was the culmination of over a decade of entrepreneurship. Despite my attempt to be authentic in my blog, I don’t think I ever really shared how hard those 4 years really were personally. 

Externally, things looked perfect. I was pretending I was okay. I had more freedom than most people can ever dream of, but in reality I was struggling from external pressures. I felt like a victim. Bitterness and resentment infused my life and put in jeopardy the family, future and relationships that I had worked so hard to build. I wanted to blame everyone around me, but the truth was the only person responsible for my life was me. I had been neglecting my own needs for the sake of others, and it was costing me and them, more than I wanted to pay.

External joy cannot ever heal what is unresolved on the inside.

I had spent decades trying to fix everything—while still putting myself last. I believed that because my life wasn’t a train wreck, I was healed from my old stories. That they no longer shaped my present. I couldn’t have been more wrong.

It was 3am, anchored in the pristine waters of Sardinia, when I grieved—fully, inconsolably—the weight of what I had the potential to lose, and the time I had lost avoiding the truth. A grief that brings you to your knees, beyond words or tissues, heavy as an elephant on your chest. My body ached with sorrow. Every part of my life—health, relationships, career, finances, and mental wellbeing—felt under siege.

The next day, I got up and pretended it was all okay. I played with the kids, made plans with friends, and took this beautiful photo. But something had shifted. I knew I needed help to process what I’d convinced myself was in the past.

That trip marked the turning point. I began the slow, deliberate work of facing the shadows I had long outrun. I sat with the pain and started investing in leading and supporting myself from the inside out.

On that journey back to wellbeing and daily joy, I became a Certified Elementum Coach. The training gave me a powerful skill set to guide others from trauma to joy. Every offering I create is built on the pillars of self-leadership that have transformed my own life.

In the last six years, I’ve sailed across oceans, moved across the country, started a new career, and cherished every moment of raising teenagers. I’ve healed a relationship with a parent, inviting new laughter and connection—while becoming estranged from another, and knowing that can be okay. I’ve lost a sibling, and navigated the painful, liberating end of a 20-year relationship. I’ve found my voice, learned boundaries, defined life on my own terms, learned to trust myself at the deepest level—and so much more than words can hold. I am still here, still learning and finding new areas to grow into. 

This work is deeply transformative. I’ve become the kind of woman of grit and grace whose energy speaks before she does. For that I am ever grateful.
