Leadership coaching for the creative at heart

When quiet friction gets too loud to ignore

You’re motivated by growth and guided by curiosity around what could be. But as you’ve moved up, your instincts are harder to hear. Fear, stress, and reactivity have become more frequent visitors. The friction builds, and you realize you’re no longer defining success on your own terms.

While every story is different, there are often three inflection points where quiet friction becomes impossible to ignore.

⊖ When the bar gets higher

Recently promoted, bigger team, new challenges. The terrain has changed and you haven’t yet found your footing. Your go-to leadership style needs a reboot. It’s time to let go of old habits and grow new skills so you can hit your stride.

⊖ When urgency becomes a way of life

The expectations have piled up. The calendar is overflowing. You’re running at full speed, but it’s never enough. You’d love some clarity on what’s important, the space to plan your next step, and the peace that comes with that.

⊖ When the path forward blurs

On paper, everything makes sense, but something in you has shifted. You’re asking deeper questions now — about where your energy goes, what matters most, and what kind of work actually feels worth it. It feels increasingly important to be on a path that feels aligned with who you’re becoming. 

You don’t have to choose.

Hi, I’m Sara Kremer. I’m an executive coach and design leader. Over the years, I’ve coached many creative leaders who don’t resonate with a typical corporate playbook. They feel caught in the tension between who they are and what their role asks of them. Between hustle and burnout. Between head and heart.

Through my work, I’ve come to see leadership differently — not as a series of tradeoffs, but as an act of expansion.

My approach is about helping you carve out space to gain clarity in who you are, see your situation from a different altitude, and create goals that inspire you.
