CREDENTIALS
Certified Adult Chair® Coach
Adult Chair® Certified Coach | Winter Park, Florida
Sara Stansberry is a certified Adult Chair life coach and mentor who works with women navigating the kind of life transitions that force you to rebuild from the ground up — divorce, empty nest, career reinvention, addiction recovery, or simply the realization that you've been living someone else's life.
Sara's coaching draws on her Adult Chair certification along with specialized training in Addiction and Recovery (Harvard Medical School/MIT) and Suicide Prevention, giving her clients a foundation that's both trauma-informed and deeply practical. Her core specialties include family-of-origin and inner child work, codependency and boundary-setting, self-worth and financial recovery, and helping clients separate who they actually are from the roles and coping patterns they inherited.
What sets Sara apart is that she's lived the rebuild herself — divorce, sobriety, business failure, and starting over financially — and she coaches from that lived experience rather than theory alone. Her style is direct, warm, and unafraid of hard conversations. Clients describe her as someone who "has done her own work," which allows her to hold space for theirs.
If you're ready to stop performing a version of your life and start building one that's actually yours, Sara can help you get there.
Beyond one-on-one coaching, Sara is the creator of How to Blow Up Your Life — a brand, podcast, and forthcoming book (Greenleaf Book Group, Feb. 2027) exploring how creative destruction clears the way for the life you actually want.
