Sara Sweat, MA – Founder & CEO, Mindshift Advisors
I’ve spent the past 25 years in business – early stage startups, huge national corporations, & everything in between. And, I kept seeing the same scenarios play out time & time again. Smart, capable leaders were hitting a wall with their performance & their great ideas were failing. They were stuck — and no one was telling them why.
They had the credentials. The revenue. The team.
But under the surface, they were wrestling with questions they couldn’t out-strategize:
- Why is growth stalling even though we’re doing “everything right”?
- Why is my team disengaged when the culture looks great on paper?
- Why do I feel like I’m pushing a boulder uphill every day?
The common denominator?
Human psychology.
The silent driver behind every strategic misfire, toxic pattern, stalled team, or flatlined revenue stream isn’t usually the strategy — it’s what’s happening under the hood. Mindsets. Identity. Beliefs. Behavior. Alignment.
And, that’s where I live.
When most of my colleagues were going back to school to get their MBA, I completed a Masters in Counseling. Understanding the human element of performance, how to inspire, motivate, and create the conditions for success has given me a unique perspective that turned out to be a huge advantage in leadership.
I was able to build lasting teams, collaborate with clients and internal stakeholders on innovation, all while attaining triple digit growth – sustainably.
The Mindshift Advisors Approach
I’ve leveraged all I’ve learned to approach performance coaching and business consulting differently. At Mindshift Advisors, we don’t just optimize operations or leadership.
We dig into the psychology of how you, your team, and your business actually function — and then we align your strategy around that.
Our approach is brutally honest, refreshingly human, and deeply results-driven.
Because business problems are rarely just business problems. They’re people problems in disguise.
Whether it’s a client attrition issue that’s really about leadership style…
A stagnant growth phase rooted in subconscious risk aversion… Or poor operational performance that’s really caused by lack of clarity and cohesion…
We know how to spot the pattern, name it, and shift it.
We Work Best With…
- Founders, CEOs, and executives who are emotionally intelligent but stuck in intellectual overdrive
- Teams that have the talent but lack alignment or engagement
- Businesses that have plateaued and can’t figure out why
If that’s you — we should talk.
Let’s Get Real
This isn’t therapy dressed up as consulting.
And it’s not fluffy culture work that stops at “values exercises.”
It’s deep, strategic, psychological insight that drives real business results — from retention to revenue to leadership clarity. We convert human capital into hypergrowth.
If you’re tired of surface-level advice and ready to actually shift to something that matters…📅 Book a consult. Let’s talk about what’s really going on — and what’s possible on the other side of it.
