When the Mask Slips… What Comes Next?

When the Mask Slips… What Comes Next?

There’s something about July that cracked people open.

Every conversation I had, on stage, in coaching, in life… carried the same thread:

We’re all a little tired of pretending.

Of holding it all together.

Of wearing the mask.

That’s why July’s UnMasked series hit so deep.

Real Talk with Real Leaders

Each guest showed up with a level of honesty that’s rare in professional spaces:

• Mauricio Patino flew in and got vulnerable with me LIVE about redefining identity in leadership. 🎙️Listen in here.
  
• Ashley Brooke James shared what it means to find your truth in a world that demands performance. 🎙️Listen in here.
  
• Samantha T. Marie reminded us that healing isn’t a straight line. 🎙️Listen in here.
  
• Eli Walker gave us some amazing metaphors about lives and our bodies you need to hear!. 🎙️Listen in here.
  
  

These weren’t just inspiring conversations. They were invitations.
To get still. To listen inward. To lead differently.

And that energy poured into the Aligned Masterclass too.

We Didn’t Just Talk About Alignment, We Felt It

During the Masterclass, I guided amazing leaders through a powerful somatic experience.
We opened each of the body’s energy centers through breath and somatic movement.

Together, we stood up.
We moved.
We breathed.
And we felt the shift.

The feedback was overwhelming:
“I really needed this today.”
“I got chills during several moments.”
“Can you please record this?!”

The truth is, this wasn’t a performance.
It was a reset.

So What Comes Next?

I’ve been quietly working on a new resource that brings that clarity home:
It’s a short, potent 10-minute video practice called:

💫 The Energy Center Reset
A guided somatic experience to open all seven energy centers, designed to restore calm, clarity, and alignment in body and mind. (And it only takes about 10 minutes!) 

You’ll be able to access it anytime you need to drop back into truth.
(And yes, I’m expanding the Energy Audit to include a full audio walkthrough too!)

More details soon, stay close.

And One More Thing…

I just got word that I was a recipient of the  2025 Smart Speaker Award.

It’s an honor. But more than that, it’s a full-circle moment.

Because for years, I wore my own masks. I polished the outside while hiding the chaos within.
And now I get to stand on stages, in rooms and Zooms, and help others drop the act.

To bring real clarity, soul-led strategy, and nervous system safety to the way we lead.

If you’re looking for a speaker who can do exactly that for your audience

✨ Book me to speak

Because we don’t need more noise.
We need more truth.

Here’s to the masks we’ve dropped, and the ones we’ll never pick back up.

With love,
Sarah
