Breakthrough

by Sadie Sharp

What do you do when the perfect, successful life you have spent years crafting, all of a sudden feels like a prison of your own making? From the outside looking in, Sadie Sharp was an ordinary woman, doing extraordinary things. Self-employed at 24, starting multiple companies, sitting on boards and coaching CEOs. She was confident, courageous, and cruising the roller-coaster of success. On the inside, however, Sadie felt trapped and out of control. Success became a stressor, exceptional became an expectation, and achievement became an addiction. Then a series of harrowing events resulted in the young woman who had the world at her feet ending up on her ass. This is the story of how, against the odds, Sadie harnessed her hard-learned lifelong lessons to embrace adversity and use it as the catalytic pain she needed to take a hard look at who she really was, what she really wanted, and what she was really prepared to do to break free from the life she no longer wanted. The breakdown was the best thing that ever happened to Sadie. The breakdown was her breakthrough. “I loved it so much I read it in one go!” (Siobhan McNulty) “Holy shit, it’s fantastic! I love the lessons!” (Jacqueline Rogerson) “Sadie has an incredible way with words. Her humour and sassywriting style drag you in… not only am I seriously impressed, but I’m hooked!” (Rachel Morgan)
