stories for business
No matter what platform or medium you are using to share your business story, you must first uncover which pivotal moments in your business truly demonstrate and define your brand for your audience.
We can help you uncover the right stories to share, to build relationships with your intended audience.
Once you’ve uncovered the right stories, we can help you share them in front of an audience through one-to-one public speaking coaching.
“I cannot tell you how much I appreciate you! You’ve been my rock in preparation for my presentation. Thank you for believing in me, empowering me, and always being resourceful. You bring out the BEST in people around you.”

storytelling for leaders
The most powerful leaders are those who can effectively share their vision through stories. Whether in front of a large audience, or just a few key people, a personal story will engage your audience and bring them along into your vision and goals.
Rediscovering the stories that shaped how you see the world and your role in it is the key to demonstrating your values and vision, and building advocates that choose to follow, rather than employees who must.
Communication coaching using storytelling as a foundation
How you tell your stories matters. When you uncover the stories that are impacting your success, you open all kinds of opportunities. Those stories that are limiting you are your internal messages about them. Let's figure out what to share, how to share it, and why it's important to share it. We can work together using a variety of online platforms including FaceTime, Skype, and Google+ Hangout, as well as via plain old telephone conversations.
Stories are the fastest way to build relationships. When you can share a powerful, personal story, you establish intimacy with you audience quickly and effectively.
Relationships are the key to life satisfaction and happiness, and communication is the key to building relationships. Sharing the right story at the right time helps you demonstrate your values and motivation, creating a shared vision for the future.

“Sarah Elkins is my writing coach. Through a process of casual conversation and penetrating questions, Sarah will open up your head, heart, and guts. She is sometimes simply uncanny in what she hears and in what she suggests.

I heartily recommend making Sarah your writing coach.”
