HELLO WGM! πŸ‘‹

Name: Sarah

Very excited to be here β€” and full transparency, I’m pretty new to Slack (I know - I've lived under a rock until now), so please forgive me if I fumble around a bit while I get my bearings πŸ˜…

πŸ“Location: Santa Barbara (recently relocated from LA)

πŸ’ΌCurrent Role: I run a boutique recruitment agency, HELLO Recruitment, where I partner with wellness and better-for-you brands as they grow their teams. I genuinely love conversations around people, culture, and mindfulness in the workplace. I also have a bit of a reputation for making thoughtful connections whether it be for investment, partnerships, etc when I see alignment β€” it’s kind of my favorite thing!

🎯Hobbies: Time with my dog Gordon, yoga and movement, long walks in nature, and reading anything I can get my hands on about the brain and the human energy field.

πŸ’¬Some Topics I’m Interested in Connecting About: Culture, mindfulness in the workplace, and humanizing the team building process.

🀝How I Can Help WGM: Happy to be a sounding board, make introductions when helpful, and support members as they think through team growth or people-related challenges. I’m very much here as a resource and collaborator.

✨How WGM Can Help Me: Community is a big theme I’m bringing with me into 2026, and I’m really looking forward to getting to know more people in this space that has been a huge part of my life since I was young.

πŸ’ͺExtra: If you’re ever in Santa Barbara (or LA β€” I’m down there often), I love meeting IRL. Always up for a coffee or a walk β˜•πŸŒΏ

So happy to be here β€” excited to connect with you all ✨
