With over a decade at tech giants like Microsoft and Google, Sally transitioned to a full-time career in Emotional & Positive Intelligence Coaching in Feb 2024 after 4 years of side hustling. 

Today, she supports kind hearts with intense lives and helps individuals move away from a chronically overwhelming rhythm. Sally draws on her extensive training in Behavioral Science and her degree in Management.

In this episode:

  • Sally shares her journey from working at Microsoft and Google to becoming an emotional intelligence coach.
  • She explains how the constant connectivity and information overload with modern technology led to her feeling misaligned, overwhelmed and burnt out.
  • Sally talks about how becoming a mother made her realize the importance of slowing down, pausing and managing emotions.
  • Sally emphasizes the importance of pausing, setting boundaries and recognizing the intensity of demands in our lives.
  • She gives advice on the need to pause and reassess the number of requests we receive to avoid burnout.
  •  Sally discusses how highly sensitive or empathetic individuals are more deeply affected by intense environments. 
  • She reassures that setting boundaries and pausing can help us create a more balanced and fulfilling life.
  • Her final words: However intense life gets, pause, breathe, and then you'll know how to focus on what matters.
