True Source:

Every concept in this book grew out of what I’ve experienced, applied, dismantled or evolved from what I’ve learned from other people.

I was lucky to be thrown into the world of personal development for my own life-altering experience in a program called SuperCamp¹ at age 15. At 16, I was teaching teachers in my school how they could do it better, at 16 being coached by masters on how to facilitate transformative experiences for others, at 22, teaching others how to teach and facilitate, and by 28 co-authored my first book on it. I was jokingly referred to as the poster kid for this work as it seemed that I grew up in it. I’ve been teaching the concepts in this book in some form for over twenty years.

While I’m creating new distinctions and tools all the time, much of what I teach, captured in this book, is work that’s become part of who I am over decades of teaching and coaching it. Some of these concepts have been in the self-development world for years and I’m giving them new distinctions and application to your world as a leader here. Some are evolutions of concepts I co-created or learned with other master coaches.

While I’ve noted sources and experts for many concepts throughout the book, the following masters have had such indelible impact in my development and thinking that I still hear their voices in my head and my work every day, years later. Their influence is woven throughout this book, and if you don’t have their work on your shelf and in your practice, seek it out. They include (in alphabetical order, since they’re impossible to rank):

Linda Brown

Bobbi Deporter

Eric Jensen

Mark Reardon

Blair Singer

Maggie Weiss

To every one of you, thank you for your ruthless support, coaching, impact, collaboration and most of all- your shared commitment to what’s possible in the world.

Power whoosh of love and immeasurable gratitude, Sarah
