Meet Sara Corckran

Sara Corckran is a mindset coach, speaker, and author of Grit and Grace: How to Find Clarity and Optimism in Overwhelming Situations.

Sara isn’t a “sage on the stage” kind of speaker. She tells stories — often her favorites — that invite people to see themselves with new eyes. Her presentations are interactive, sensory, and deeply human, with audiences moving, reflecting, and connecting with one another. She loves using simple props — a children’s book, something from nature, or an everyday object — to spark curiosity and bring her message to life.

Drawing from her lived experience as a breast cancer survivor, caregiver, and lifelong learner, Sara helps people navigate life with clarity, resilience, and grace. Her talks blend storytelling, practical tools, and genuine connection, leaving audiences feeling validated, inspired, and hopeful... ready to bring more presence and compassion into their own lives.

Signature Topics

  • Resilience isn’t about pushing through—it’s about learning to soften, recalibrate, and return to yourself. This talk offers practical tools to quiet rumination, regulate your nervous system, and meet each day with steadiness and self-compassion.

  • When life pulls you in every direction, your body and inner voice can guide you home. This talk helps you listen sooner, ease self-judgment, and rebuild confidence from a grounded, authentic place.

"Known for her warmth, insight, and authenticity, Sara brings a powerful presence to every stage-creating space for vulnerability, hope, inspiration and transformation."
