For the past 25 years, I’ve been empowering women to create their dream lives and businesses from their inner wisdom. As an intuitive business strategy and expert in women's spiritual leadership, I offer smart, attuned guidance on leading from your highest Self, serving the world, and fulfilling your greatest potential.
I’m Sara Avant Stover.

Fun facts!
I started my first business in grade school– selling homemade chocolates.
I lived in Chiang Mai, Thailand for 9 years in my twenties. My time there changed my life and gave birth to the work I do today.
I took my first yoga class in 1996 while living in Vail, Colorado for the summer after my freshman year in college. A voice inside told me then that I was going to become a yoga teacher.
A former ballerina, I still love to dance
If I needed to pick one food to eat for the rest of my life, it would probably be Indian (dal, especially!)
I’ve traveled to 45 countries (many of them visited solo)
This voice is what I have come to know as my Self. And every woman has access to this.
Turns out, the very achievement-driven perfectionism that had defined me for years had also muffled the voice of inner wisdom I most needed to guide me through my most difficult challenges (and biggest opportunities for growth).
IN FACT, AS MY QUEST FOR EXTERNAL SUCCESS LED ME TO DEEPER WISDOM AND HEALING, I REALIZED I WAS AT WAR WITH MYSELF.
As a recovering overachiever, I learned the hard way that all the productivity systems and perfectionism that seemed to serve me so well in my early years, as I “people-pleased” my way through elite schooling, weren’t the skills I needed to move through my biggest growth periods later in life.
My work lands at the intersection between spirituality, business, entrepreneurship, and feminism. Grounded in intuitively-inspired action plans, I help women fulfill their potential, so they can become who they truly are– in business and in life.
I draw from more than 20 years of practical experience as an intuitive, devoted psycho-spiritual practitioner and business owner myself, while also guiding women back to their inner wisdom through feminine spiritual practices, Internal Family Systems, and a whole lot of love (and guts).
I help women create businesses and lives that reflect their true Selves.
Hello! I’m Sara.
Because we need each other. And we can’t do this alone.
To do this, I offer you the intimate details of my own path — the triumphant, the not-so-pretty moments, and everything in between — to inspire and invoke your own truth.
ABOVE ALL, I’VE DEVOTED MY LIFE TO GUIDING WOMEN BACK TO THE PROFOUND WISDOM WITHIN, IN BOTH THEIR PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL LIVES.
After graduating Phi Beta Kappa and summa cum laude from Columbia University's all-women's Barnard College, I had a health scare in my early twenties. Upon my diagnosis, I let everything go to heal and find myself. I moved to Thailand (turns out: my soul’s home) and spent ten years there, on a healing and spiritual odyssey throughout Asia. I returned convinced that each woman has, within her, the wisdom that will save her.
Over the past 25 years, I’ve used the very method I teach to heal from a whole host of traumas and challenges, which I write about in-depth in my books.
I'm grateful that my business and I live and work on the unceded traditional territory of the Arapahoe, Cheyenne, and Mountain Ute.
I weave the evidence-based, psychotherapeutic healing model, Internal Family Systems, into everything I offer. It’s changed everything for me, and I’ve witnessed the deep transformation it’s created for my clients, too.
