About me
I'm Michelle Sarti, an enthusiastic advocate for living your absolute best life with intention and purpose.
How did I get here? Well, it wasn’t exactly a straight path. I grew up the youngest of six kids, constantly surrounded by lively conversation, passionate opinions and big expectations to go into the world and work hard. I'm a former attorney who never loved practicing law. I spent ten years on and off studying Counseling Psychology. I have many wild stories about service on school and non-profit boards that challenged me with everything from bear attacks to criminal embezzlement. And of course, like any mom, I have the parenting war stories that come from raising three now almost-adult children. Throw in the existential crises of surviving breast cancer, the pandemic, and 18 days hiking on the John Muir Trail, and, well, I gained clarity about a few important themes in my life:
Helping others is what I was meant to do
We are all striving to feel useful and live a life of meaning
Fear, combined with self limiting thoughts, perspectives and behaviors, is the death of dreams and moving forward
I’m now a dedicated Co-Active Coach and I excel at helping others move from a place of feeling restless, stuck or unclear to a place of inspiration and action. I have found profound happiness and purpose in Life and Executive coaching and know that you too, can find what you are seeking to change in your life.
When I’m not coaching clients, you can find me hiking and running on the trails of Marin or planning a crazy wilderness adventure.
