Hi, I’m Sarah K Peck.
I’m a writer, business owner, leadership coach, and parent based in New York City. Most of the time, I’m thriving *barely surviving* parenting, running a business, and the constant wheel of change that is life. I write about nearly all of it when I can get some alone time at the computer. Sometimes people find it funny.
I write and speak about leadership, parenting, gender, friendship, and culture — and managing a business amidst all that life throws our way. My writing and work have been featured in Harvard Business Review, The New York Times, Fast Company, Inc, Psychology Today, and more. I’ve spoken at Harvard, Penn, Berkeley, the University of Virginia, Quantic School of Business & Technology, Be On Deck, and at more conferences around the globe.
