Hi, I'm Sarah Doody, founder of the Career Strategy Lab
Many people ask me how I to got to where I am today and why I sold everything, bought a one way ticket, left my life in Manhattan and moved to Salt Lake City. The answer is simple, I wanted to live the ski life.
Although I love what I do, life is more than work, and I want to empower other people to create careers that let them live their dream lives.
People who’ve worked with me been hired at companies including Blue Origin, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Wells Fargo, and more. On average, they get hired in 3.5 months and increase their salaries by 40%.
I’d love to work with you and help you create a career and life that’s fulfilling, empowering, and let’s you do work that excites you and have more adventures that bring you joy.
