What people say about Sarah:
“Sarah has coached me through some tough decisions as well as helping me to find the balance between working full time and having toddler twins. I’ve always been so impressed with Sarah’s strategic but creative skills, across pretty much everything relating to marketing communications.”
— Mammy Maquire, Head of Social Media, Man Met University

"I knew that Sarah and the PPL sessions would be valuable but I didn’t realise quite how valuable. Oh my goodness she finds a way to get the root of anything that is holding you back from being your very best authentic self. So many techniques grounded in solid thinking, so many tips on how to keep moving forward towards those business goals; but also making sure we don’t lose sight of the every day and celebrating what we do bloody well already. I’ve loved these last few weeks and its value will stay with me for the rest of my working life and beyond. I’ve taken this time to invest in me and it’s been worth its weight in gold. Sarah is not only a great trainer, she’s a great person to be around."
- Clare Briscall, Owner, Clare Briscall Planning

"Sarah’s mentoring forced me to take just a short amount of time out for myself, to reflect during a very busy work period, and I am a healthier, happier person as a result. Sarah has a practical and very realistic attitude about what can be achieved and sets sensible small goals that do make a difference. She’s also easy to chat to, and we laughed a lot. I thoroughly recommend her training.”
— Fiona Steggles, Journalist, Lecturer, Media Trainer

Hello to all the brilliant women navigating the strange and wonderful world of midlife.

Especially the ones awake at 3am Googling all the symptoms, trying to establish whether they’ve got a mysterious illness, whether it’s menopause, stress, getting older or whether they’ve taken so many supplements they’re now rattling and they’re all colliding with each other. I mean, I’ve been necking magnesium like it’s the answer to all the schizzle and I still don’t sleep.

To the women who aren’t feeling particularly tip top and still get on the Peloton, walk the dog, do six loads of washing, sort out the food shop and generally fix the world’s problems before teatime.

Meanwhile, we’re also building careers, running businesses, leading teams, navigating change and wondering what we might be capable of if we had a little more room in our brains to think. A little wink of “what if” giving you the nod.

There are the parents to worry about, prescriptions to collect, kids and kidults to organise; not to mention doing all the thinking for every human that lives in your world.

And somewhere amongst all that, there’s a woman with her own ambitions, ideas, plans and a fair amount of fire in her belly.

I’m Sarah Knight. I’m 53, I’ve been running my own brilliant business for over 24 years and I’ve spent much of my working life coaching women, developing leaders and exploring how we navigate change, uncertainty and all the life stuff that comes with it.

I’m the founder of FoundHer Fire. I wanted to create the space, the network, the platform I would have loved to find myself in. Somewhere experienced women in business can connect, share peer intelligence, build their own self-leadership strategies, have a laugh, figure things out and build the scaffolding around them to crack on, on purpose.

So if you’re a woman who is building, leading, fixing, caring, questioning and wondering what the bloody hell is going on with her own body and mind.

When the pressure ramps up, what’s the first thing you stop doing?

For a lot of us, it’s talking to other people.

You cancel the coffee. Stop asking for input. Put off the call with someone who always helps you untangle things. Because frankly, you’ve got enough to do without adding another conversation to the bloody list.

So you put your head down and crack on.

I know this pattern well. I’ve spent over 24 years working in leadership, learning and behaviour change, and through my coaching and FoundHer Fire, I see how experienced, capable women respond when life, leadership and load collide.

And retreating can feel like a perfectly sensible way of protecting your capacity.

Except there’s a cost.

The very people who give you perspective, challenge your thinking, help you see another way forward or remind you that you don’t have to carry the whole bloody lot yourself are the people you’ve stopped making time for.

Your world gets smaller. And so do your resources.

It’s one of the reasons I created FoundHer Fire and why Resources are such an important part of my Human Scaffolding System.

We need access to other people’s thinking, experience and support, particularly when we’re navigating uncertainty and carrying responsibility.

So here’s something to notice this week.

When the pressure goes up, who do you stop talking to?

And what might change if you kept that connection open?

Because cracking on is something most of us have become spectacularly good at.

Cracking on, on purpose takes scaffolding. It takes your human scaffolding system. And it takes you to notice what’s happening.

You can be bloody brilliant at what you do and still want people beside you while you do it. Still need people beside you. In fact having the right people by your side is a game changer in your ability to crack on, on purpose.

In fact, I think the further you go, the more important that becomes.

FoundHer Fire has been built for experienced women in business. The founders, business owners, consultants, leaders and corporate escapers who have years of experience, plenty of ambition and absolutely no desire to figure out every next move on their own.

It is a room full of women who bring something to the table.

Experience. Perspective. Contacts. Questions. Ideas. Lived experience. The occasional “have you thought about it like this?” that completely changes what you do next.

Alongside that community sits coaching, expert support, professional and personal development and the practical application of Human Scaffolding, helping you build the systems around you that support how you work, lead and live.

And there are two ways into the room.

You can back yourself and join FoundHer Fire directly.

Or your organisation can back you through one of our corporate pathways.

For enterprise organisations, FoundHer Fire provides a ready-built external ecosystem for experienced female talent, extending development beyond individual programmes and interventions through ongoing coaching, peer intelligence, expert support and Human Scaffolding.

Same ecosystem. Same table. Different routes into the room.

Come and find out what happens when you have FoundHer Fire by your side.

FoundHer Fire is a business community for experienced women in business.
Women who have lived, navigated all the collisions, are navigating more collisions and are probably also rocking in a corner whilst running businesses, building businesses and leading in business.

There isn’t a business community like it. There isn’t a membership that combines cognitive diversity, peer intelligence, networking, group coaching and access to globally recognised thought leaders and experts.

This is the place you come, to join, to crack on, on purpose. Steeped in the reality with all the baked in wisdom, this is your space to unlock your potential, to show up on your terms and to meet a whole heap of brilliant, like-minded women who get it. Who still want to make an impact, build and occasionally say FFS out loud without any judgement and with all the understanding.

Together we are stronger. Together we rise. Strengthened by your human scaffolding system.

DM me FIRE for detail of how you can join in September and a cheeky special offer.
