• The reality of running your own agency—and what brought her back to team life
• Creative link-building ideas, PR campaigns, and modern internal linking strategy
• Why client psychology and communication is often the real SEO challenge
• Her advice for hiring, interviewing, and spotting true SEO talent
• Launching the SEO SAS Podcast: niche gaps, audience building, and keeping it fun
• Making SEO more accessible, educational, and less boring (spoiler: she’s succeeding)
Sarah brings humor, insight, and a ton of transparency around what it takes to thrive in SEO, manage client expectations, and show up authentically—whether on calls or behind the mic.
