SARAH JANZEN’S PRESS KIT & BIO
A direct voice on what it really takes
to leave corporate
Lived experience, specific frameworks, and honest numbers, not vague inspiration. For interviews, podcasts, speaking, and media comment.
SHORT BIO
Sarah Janzen is the founder of Her Big Leap, where she helps high-achieving women do something most people think is too risky: leave a six-figure corporate career and build a business that replaces it. After more than a decade in corporate leadership, Sarah left to build her own — and has spent nearly a decade since helping senior leaders and high achieving women turn their expertise into a business that gives them more income, more autonomy, and more impact than corporate ever did.
LONG BIO
Sarah Janzen is the founder of Her Big Leap, where she helps high-achieving women do something most people think is too risky: leave a six-figure corporate career and build a business that replaces it.
She spent more than a decade climbing the corporate ladder at Fortune 500 companies, where her work earned several sales and marketing awards, including a Global Marketing Award.
After two mergers and acquisitions, years of burnout and health issues, she left to build her own business. Her first venture collapsed a month before launch, and that failure became the foundation of the methodology she teaches today.
In the nearly ten years since, Sarah has helped hundreds of senior leaders and high-achieving women turn their expertise into businesses that give them more income, more autonomy, and more impact than corporate ever did. She is a certified Master Coach, because the mindset of entrepreneurship is just as important as the business strategy; she brings both.
Sarah lives with her husband Chris and their two young sons.
