What if the breakthrough you’ve been waiting for… is already in motion—and the only thing missing is you living like it’s real?In this episode of Go, Get a Life, we’re talking about faith that moves.

That gets the room ready before the door even opens.We’ll unpack what it means to live “as if”—to shift from waiting on a sign to becoming the sign. Because faith isn’t passive. It’s alignment.

Welcome to the very first episode of Go Get a Life. I’m Sarah Scheller—former ER nurse gone rogue into your trusted money and mindset coach—and I’m kicking things off by sharing the deeply personal moment that sparked this entire journey.It happened on a quiet night, sitting alone in my apartment after another soul-sucking ER shift. My life had completely unraveled. I had just walked away from a broken marriage, I was running on empty, and I felt like a stranger in my own skin. And then I muttered—half-laughing, half-crying—“Sarah, go get a life.”It was meant to be sarcastic, but something about those words hit differently. They were raw, bold, and honest. And in that moment, they became more than a joke—they became my dare to start over.In this episode, I take you back to that moment and share what it taught me about waking up, rebuilding from rock bottom, and reclaiming a life that actually feels like mine. If you’ve ever felt stuck in survival mode or like life knocked the wind out of you, you’re not alone. And you are not too far gone.Here’s what I cover in this episode:The breakdown that became my breakthroughWhy “Go Get a Life” became my rally cryWhat this show is all about (and what it’s not)A glimpse of what you can expect from future episodes: real stories, raw truth, mindset tools, faith-filled encouragement, and soul-deep supportThis isn’t a highlight reel—it’s a safe space for healing, reinvention, and messy, beautiful growth. I created this show for those who are ready to stop settling, start dreaming again, and take one honest step toward the life they were created for.Connect with SarahFollow along on InstagramBecome a part of the Facebook GroupCheck out the My Sunrise Phoenix WebsiteSchedule a Chit Chat
