“Ask Sarah” is a private monthly podcast for you to ask questions about business, life, parenting, or anything you’re curious about.

First, if you want to ask me about anything in my life or business, you’re welcome to ask and get the inside scoop about whatever you’d like. I’ll answer, within reason, but for the most part, I’m an open book. Happy to talk about sex, money, goals, psychology, therapy, life dreams—whatever you’d like to know about.

Second, if you’d like some attention and feedback on your own life, business, or challenge, send me a detailed note using this form and tell me about your current situation. I pick challenges each month to unpack, discuss, and lend my brain to. Yes, you can share your marketing strategy, your parenting or partnership challenges, or your hiring questions with me and I’ll take the time to think through it and give you my best feedback and insights.

This podcast is available in full for backers on Patreon or members of my mastermind. Find out more about each here:

This is a tricky question, and a lot depends state to state. I dig into the things you should know about corporate contracts, employment agreements, inventions and assignments agreements, and why getting a lawyer to look at your contracts is a really smart investment (and shouldn’t cost you more than a few hundred dollars).
