Alcohol-free.

Meet Sarah

Sarah Connelly Tapped In Founder

Hello, I'm Sarah,

I help people find joy and freedom in an alcohol-free life-style.

I am a certified Master Grey Area Drinking and Mindset coach, Yoga teacher and mindfulness instructor. In the last 14 years I have built a business, raised 2 young boys, lost both my parents and navigated life in Australia as a proud and happy non-drinker since October 2019.

For many years I functioned as a 'successful' business owner, parent and wife. I didn't identify as an "alcoholic" but I knew my drinking habit was getting out of control and it had started getting in the way of me living in a way I was proud of. I didn't like how much I was drinking and when I started to hide it from friends and family I knew I needed to take action and get back in control.

In 2019 I quit drinking after an interesting and life-changing experience in a two-week rehab program. This experience inspired me to re-train and to seek alternative support options for people like me. People not ‘bad enough’ for rehab or cut out for AA.

Testimonials

Sarah is truly AMAZING!

I have worked with her over the past months and she has lead me to incredible insights about myself and my world.  She has an incredible way to make you feel comfortable and accepted.  Her warm voice and laughter made me feel happy and made the learning process fun! Each time I was with her I learned more about myself and was able to reach deep inside to pull out the nuggets of Gold which have lead me to personal growth for a lifetime.

I was delighted to mentor Sarah and have since invited her to join my P90 program as a coach.

Sarah brings a variety of valuable skills to the team, incorporating both mindset and mindfulness techniques which are integral to the unique and powerful coaching we offer in the P90 program.

I was coached by Sarah for 3 months and came away with so much more knowledge and confidence than I can relate. Sarah coaches with a very positive, fun and science based method that encompasses our life as a whole. She is very passionate about being alcohol free and that enthusiasm rubs off. I can’t thank Sarah enough for what I’ve learnt off her and would recommend her coaching to anyone.

Sarah is an amazing listener that observes every detail focusing on what is important to you as an individual.

Working with her has provided me with many ideas and thought provoking moments that have allowed me to stop, reassess and make changes to my personal life .

Sarah has a vast range of knowledge and skills that can be applied to many different individuals.   I would highly recommend her to anyone that is seeking balance, life purpose, drive and to reignite passion and zest for life.

I came to Sarah when I was ready to make fundamental changes to my life. I was stuck in a rut and had become too dependent upon alcohol. I knew I wanted to make changes but wasn’t sure how to go about it. With Sarah’s support and encouragement I felt ready to make changes and I actually felt excited to be taking the plunge!  I found every session uplifting, reassuring and invigorating.  Sarah has the experience, the knowledge and the tools to help, I couldn’t have done it without her. Today I feel so much more energised, more in control and more fulfilled.

Working with Sarah has been the most joyful and inspiring experience. She has an innate and highly intuitive way of honing in on the root of a problem or challenge, and does so with the utmost empathy, compassion and kindness. We have not only worked through some obstacles that I had thought unworkable, but the progress has been both enlightening and inspiring. I would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for an extremely qualified and effective coach.

 “Sarah joined us at a wrap-up event where the team got to test a selection of alcohol-free drinks. They were very surprised at the quality and appreciative of the business considering their needs. Sarah gave an excellent presentation, sharing some of her own story and assisting the team in understanding that choosing AF is absolutely normal in our society and something that should be supported in any environment.”
