Ireland's Career Change Coach -what comes next?
A Coach and Facilitator who helps you make sense of change, reconnect with your strengths, and create the next chapter of your working life with confidence and purpose. For individuals and teams navigating transition.
Hi, I'm Sarah, a Career Change Coach and Team Facilitator based in Ireland. If you're wondering whether to change careers, feeling stuck in a role that no longer fits, or leading a team through change, you're in the right place.
As an ACC ICF-accredited Coach and certified DiSC Facilitator, I design experiences that build clarity, connection and confidence - for individuals and organisations across Ireland and beyond.
You’re in the right place if…
You feel stuck, restless, or unsure what’s next in your career. Successful on paper, but disconnected from your work. Is this it?
You lead or support others through change and want deeper, more human conversations
You’re returning to work after parental leave and things don’t fit the way they used to
“Sarah was incredible to work with. I was always struck by how effective our sessions were. We discovered things I never even thought I would. She gave such great tools and perspective that I’ll value through the rest of my career.”
Tali, Advertising in Calgary
Your career isn’t broken: the story just needs revisiting
Most people don’t need fixing. They need space to think, language for what they’re feeling, and support to reconnect with who they are now, not who they were ten years ago. That’s where story comes in. I help people step back, make sense of change, and move forward with clarity without pretending transitions are neat or linear.
"Sarah helped me to open so many doors inside my mind, becoming more aware of my potential, my skills, and being able to communicate all of these in a story that can catch everyone's attention. Super professional and a pleasure to talk to, as a coach and as a friend. Great listener and a fantastic coach!" Francesco, Galway
Frequently Asked Questions
-
A career change coach helps you get clarity on what you actually want from your working life, not only your next job title. Together, we explore your strengths, values, and what's been holding you back, so you can take confident, informed steps toward a career that fits who you are now. Think of it as creating space to think, with someone who asks the questions you haven't thought to ask yourself.
-
What a question! If you're feeling restless, disconnected, or keep quietly asking "is this it?", those are signals worth paying attention to. You don't need to have a plan, a new career in mind, or even certainty that you want to leave. That’s where coaching comes in. Most people come to me before they have the answers and that's the right time to start.

Yes team facilitation is one of the two core things I do. As a certified DiSC Facilitator based in Ireland, I work with organisations on team connection, ways of working, and strategy. Whether it's a team away day/offsite, a leadership workshop, or an ongoing programme, the goal is always the same: helping people work better together with more awareness and less friction.
-
Both. I work with coaching clients and teams right across Ireland in person and fully remote. If you're not based in Ireland, that's no barrier either; I've worked with clients in the UK, US, Canada, mainland Europe and beyond. Geography doesn't limit a good conversation or connection. Let’s discover your next chapter.
Hello! I’m Sarah Lennon
Founder of Story Coach, a Facilitator and Executive Career Change Coach. Certified with DiSC as a Facilitator, an ACC Coach with the ICF and a committed ‘learn-it-all’, the common theme throughout my career to-date is that of connection. Connecting people to their stories, their potential and their curiosities. From this, what I’ve seen and experienced is that bold new chapters are created. A joy and a privilege.
After more than 15 years across HR + Communication roles in Tech, Media and the Nonprofit sectors, in 2020 - a month before the pandemic swept the world, I jumped ship into this beautiful business. It has been a rollercoaster but one I’m so glad I jumped on (90% of the time).
Creating a space for people to own their stories - warts ‘n all, is where I thrive. Certified with Mischief Makers, Tara Mohr’s Playing Big Facilitator Training and Wiley’s DiSC Facilitator Programme, I bring a blend of science, data-backed approaches and a spark of magical impact to workshops and team connection days with organisations who are committed to supporting their employees to thrive, lead and inspire.
As an ACC ICF Coach, I’ve worked with hundreds of individuals who are focused on career change. Over 700 hours and counting - both 1:1 and with groups. Supporting people to take courageous and bold steps in their careers is where I thrive.
A core belief of mine is that people deserve to thrive in their careers. If we’re working more than 90,000 hours across our lifetime - it has to mean something to us right? Your career is only one part of your life story, but an important one.
Are we connected on social? Let’s do it!
