SB Rawz (she/her) is a coach for people who sense that the work of positive world change – whatever that means to each individual – starts inside, in the messy inner humanness, and with one’s relationship with themself. In her 11 years of coaching, this has looked like everything from exploring strategies to cope with procrastination to co-creating pathways down which folks find more of themselves, and more to appreciate (even love) about themselves. Along the way, clients have made career changes, started or grown businesses, and improved Relationships with folks in all their various circles. SB (or you can call her Rawz, if you prefer) is a lifelong tinkerer; among her current projects are the substack death + stuff, weekly silent gatherings called Grief Nooks, her interactive zines at Humaning, and whatever she happens to make from her seasonal farm share.
