Personal Details

Bio

Sara Deacon, known as The Adulting Coach, is an international speaker and communication consultant. She has been described as "an inspiration," "a ray of sunshine," and "intuitive and personable."

By day, Sara elevates workplace environments by fostering self awareness and self leadership in individuals and groups, guiding them through making positive changes in both their personal and professional interactions. Her expertise in the drama triangle and conflict resolution helps organizations address immediate challenges and strengthen long-term dynamics.

By night, she channels her energy into martial arts, using her own training to inspire confidence in others through her commitment to authenticity, discipline and integrity.

Bringing humor and fresh perspectives from her experience working with teens and young adults, she understands that the main differences between work drama and high school drama involve the amounts of coffee, memes and eyerolls. When it comes to getting people together for a common goal, personalities will clash, assumptions will be made and drama will arise. Sara helps to transform these challenges into opportunities to create harmonious and productive organizations.

Anyone can read a script.
Hire Sara to read the room.

As Master of Ceremonies, Sara arrives to your event early and thoroughly prepared. She spends the weeks leading up to your conference or event researching and communicating with your speakers and event coordinators to get a sense of your program, your audience and your brand so that on the day of your event, you can be present, connect and enjoy the experience you worked so hard to create!

During your event, Sara is adept at reading the room, directing the flow of speakers and facilitating audience engagement with her high energy and emphasis on fun. She is flexible to in-the-moment feedback or requests and naturally highlights key takeaways from each speaker in order to provide continuity throughout the whole event.

She is in command from the stage without overpowering the hosts or individual speakers, directing the audience with authority, humility and respect for each individual. From multi-day conferences to non-profit fund

Drama Detox: Elevate Your Interactions

In her signature talk, "Drama Detox: Elevate Your Interactions," Sara enlightens, entertains and equips audiences with practical ways to transform conflict into cohesion. Eliminate misunderstandings, increase morale, improve productivity and reduce turnover before it affects your bottom line.

Your audience will learn:
* What’s wrong with drama
* What is (and isn’t) drama
* The three roles people play in the drama triangle and why
* How to get other people (and yourself) to avoid drama and get out of it faster when it can’t be avoided

Your audience will leave inspired to challenge their own roles, prepared to hold each other accountable and armed with simple and effective strategies to turn down the drama around them.

PLUS, Sara will invite you to take the 21-Day Drama Detox Challenge as a way to put your learning into action and continue to improve communication in your professional and personal relationships!
