What Clients Say

“[Sterrin] is not the consultant who shows up with a polished presentation and then disappears. She rolls up her sleeves and gets into the trenches with you. You’ll find her right there in donor meetings, staff training sessions, and those messy, vulnerable conversations about organizational culture that most advisors avoid.

“What strikes people most is how she gives everything she has to each engagement. She’s developed this ‘player-coach’ approach because she genuinely can’t separate herself from the outcomes. If your fundraising isn’t transforming, if your team isn’t growing, if your culture isn’t becoming more inclusive—she takes that personally. You can see it in how she stays late working through strategy, how she remembers details about individual team members weeks later, how she’ll push back on you when she knows you’re settling for less than your potential.”

What Clients Say

“Sterrin provided our team of fundraising professionals with an invitation to explore beyond our fundraising goals and event procedures.  Rather, she had us look inward and assess how we bring our passion and purpose to our everyday work. It helped us think about how we can transform how we feel about our work, as well as maximize our relationship-building process with our constituents.”

What Clients Say

“Sterrin doesn’t push cookie-cutter strategies—she dives deep into your unique organizational DNA to craft fundraising solutions that actually fit who you are. Through her player-coach method, she builds authentic donor relationships and transforms your culture from the inside out, not through generic best practices. You get a partner who understands that sustainable growth comes from being genuinely yourself, just elevated.”

What Clients Say

“[Sterrin] was with us from the beginning when we were just a dream to bring joy to terminally ill children—now we’re in 18 hospitals nationwide, and we did it by staying true to who we are. She didn’t try to make us into someone else’s success story; instead, she helped us scale authentically, growing inside our own skin while never losing the heart that makes Little Wishes special. What started as a small wish-granting organization became a national movement because she understood that our greatest strength wasn’t copying others—it was becoming the fullest version of ourselves.

What Clients Say

“She’s chosen the hardest path possible, trying to change organizational culture while also delivering revenue results. Anyone who’s worked with her knows she could easily focus on just one or the other and have a much simpler life. Instead, she insists on tackling both simultaneously because that’s what creates lasting transformation. The You Belong Here philosophy isn’t just something she teaches; it’s how she shows up. She brings her whole self to every relationship, every challenge, every setback. When she says ‘leaving it all on the field,’ she means it literally. There’s nothing held in reserve, no safety net of ‘Well, I told them what to do.’ She’s all in, every time.”
