Claiming midlife rage as a portal of power, potency and revolutionary change.
Hi, I’m Sarah. Woman, lover, mother, creator, coach and rage alchemist.
My rage journey began in childhood, which was ideal in many ways, and not in others. However, my pervasive sense throughout it was never feeling ‘good’ enough
In the eyes of authority figures, good meant being polite, doing what I was told, and not showing any big emotions. Big emotions were met with slaps, glares and shaming. So, I soon learnt how to smile, say the right things, and morph into being the ‘good girl’.
My teens, 20’s and 30’s were dedicated to numbing. Food was my primary agent of choice and a welcome avoidance to feeling any uncomfortable emotions that would threaten to undermine my ‘good girl’ mask.
Then in my late 30’s my children arrived…and when my eldest reached 2, his very typical toddler behaviour started to trigger the sh*t out of me.
Whenever he pushed the boundaries ‘too far’, a red hot rage would surge through my body erupting in verbal explosions of blaming and shaming. Turbulent emotions mixed with harmful words, which would frighten us both. In those moments I would lose myself, and then come out the other side wracked with guilt and intense self-loathing.
I couldn’t name it back then, but these eruptions were my rage child shouting, “I was never allowed to do that! What right do you have to be yourself?”
After a particularly heightened experience I knew I needed help, and my healing journey (which also forged my path to becoming an Embodiment Coach and Somatic Practitioner) began
Now as a midlife woman, I rage about many things, but I’m no longer held hostage by it. I’ve developed capacity to be with it, embody its textures and sensations, hear what it wants me to know, and take action from that place of truth.
This journey has forged a deep passion for helping other women experience the awakening and freedom that rage alchemy brings.
To champion women as they discover that rage – when engaged with compassionately – can be their greatest teacher. A teacher that can help them to be bolder, braver, wiser and more enlivened by the rich experiences of life.
My mission as a rage alchemist is to support women to:
My qualifications include an Internationally Accredited Feminine Embodiment Coaching Certification, Integrative Somatic Parts Work Certification and an Embodied Conflict Resolution Certification. My wisdom and experience come from years of working with women who are ready to face their fiery emotions with courage, curiosity and a desire for a life that is expansive, alive, courageous and aligned with their truth.
