Sara is a former client, a fellow entrepreneur, and a real-life friend of mine, and this conversation was so special because we got to talk through her journey of leaving education, creating trust in herself, stepping out of her comfort zone, and doing the hard thing. As a copywriter and the owner of What Sara Said, Sara Gillis helps female creative business owners, especially photographers, and solopreneurs, stand out through words. After teaching writing for nearly a decade, Sara left education to help business owners serve up a hefty dose of personality in their brand messaging. Sara loves her life with her husband, Jordan, their two hockey-obsessed sons, Lionel and Quincy, and their two Doodles.
Here’s what we talked about in this episode:
- Why she left education and the challenges that came with it.
- How she built self-trust + intuition despite the fear in front of her.
- Stripping back all the layers and figuring out who you are at the core.
- How she's cultivating worthiness through continually choosing herself.
- The posture she takes when fear comes up.
- And more!
