Success Stories at My Sunrise Phoenix
“Sarah helped me set up a budget, set goals, and flip the script in my mind. We explored beliefs that held me back from reaching my goals.”
Why Mary Ann chose coaching: “Accountability and support is very helpful in making positive changes.”
Mary Ann B.
“I clicked with Sarah right away and felt she was someone I could trust as a coach. I preferred a female coach and wanted to get started right away. I knew that I could afford her fees if I squeezed my finances. I also was so fed up with my financial position that I felt I needed guidance immediately and someone to coach me on a monthly basis and help me through my challenges.”
What she enjoyed about coaching: “I enjoyed getting ideas on how to change my situation as well as the analogies that pertained to my situation (like the bamboo analogy).”
“I enjoyed having someone to listen to me and not judge me. At times, I was waiting for Sarah to tell me that since I hadn't found clients yet and finances seemed to be drying up, that my best bet was to go find a job quickly and lay my freelancing to the side...but instead she supported and encouraged my decision the whole way through. She cheered me on and validated me as I have been learning to tune in to (and trust) my own intuition and inner knowing of what path I wanted to take.”
“I liked that Sarah pointed me toward resources and books that turned out to be very helpful.”
“Sarah has been an amazing coach who has helped me to press through challenges and reframe how I think about life's hardships and rejections. She's always encouraging and doesn't judge me on the days I bounce back to old poor mindset beliefs. She gives me the space to feel those feelings and helps me to get back on track without making me feel embarrassed for the mental relapse. She was my first financial coach, and I'm so thankful I chose her. I highly recommend her.”

“I really liked how everything followed the baby steps, but focused on my situation and the type of pace I needed to be on. There wasn't anything forced on me which was nice, and it left me with a sense of I can get through my debt pay off as long as I had the tools or someone to reach out to in the time I was confused on something.”
“After the initial meeting I knew I could be comfortable talking to Sarah about anything money related, and once I came home from deployment I knew I would need someone to help me with the transition from Army to regular life.”
“Sarah's approach to getting to know you, and the interaction with no judgment is why I would recommend her to family and friends. Very knowledgeable, and will clarify things until you understand them.”

“My husband and I needed a financial coach that was completely outside of all of our usual circles. We work in a job that has a very tight knit circle so the outside perspective that Sarah provided has been very welcomed and much needed. She is well worth her fees. She's always on time for our meetings and is very professional but also especially approachable.”

“Sarah, you created a really safe and shame-free space for me to be completely open about my credit card debt and that has helped me so much in feeling less alone on my debt payoff journey. I've walked away from my classes and individual session with you feeling more prepared with actionable, manageable steps to help me continue building momentum to pay off my debt. I feel confident that I can get this debt behind me!”
“Sarah, you offered a very personalized approach to helping me figure out the best way to begin budgeting consciously and making a dent in my credit card debt. I feel like I now have a handle on what I need to do to begin getting out of debt and to no longer feel so stuck.”
“Sarah has been such a key part of the momentum I have started building to get out of credit card debt. For a few years now, I have been feeling so stuck — making progress with paying off debt and then building that debt back up again. I finally realized I needed help and some direction from someone who had been in a similar situation. Sarah has given me concrete, manageable starter steps that have really helped me begin digging myself out of debt without looking back. She has helped me shift my mindset so that I'm more cognizant of my spending and so that I truly believe in myself and my ability to pay off my debt. She also has been so helpful in advising me on how to avoid missteps in my debt payoff journey. I now feel more equipped than I ever have to get out of debt. I know it's going to be a long process, but I'm 100% committed. Most of all, Sarah has created a safe and shame-free space for me to talk openly about my debt. That was perhaps the biggest help of all because it allowed me to let go of some of my own shame and begin to take action rather than continuing to dwell on how much I have to pay off. I'd recommend anyone else trying to get out of debt turn to Sarah for her fantastic advice.”
