It's officially REAL! 📦📚❤️ After years of writing, rewriting, and wondering if this day would come, I'm finally holding my memoir, I CHOSE TO BE HERE, in my hands. Surreal doesn't begin to cover it. 🥹 AuthorSarahLopez.com #OneAnthemPress #IndieAuthor #Unboxing

What a wonderful morning with the North Marin Breakfast Club! Special thanks to Dean Moser, someone I've admired for years. He and Michele have always been in my corner, and I'm so grateful for them both. Interested in having me speak? authorsarahlopez.com

I used to measure how well I handled stress by how little anyone noticed. Now I’m learning to ask for help before I’m overwhelmed. What helps you when stress starts piling up? #NationalStressAwarenessDay

Ever set a boundary and found yourself on trial? 🙃 I've been practicing the Gray Rock Method because not every argument deserves my participation. I'm not a mental health professional, just someone learning to protect my peace. 💜 For support: TheHotline.org

I used to get paid to scare people. And I was REALLY good at it. 👻 For two seasons, I worked at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom's Fright Fest, where I jumped out of a coffin, hid behind mirrors, and scared the living daylights out of unsuspecting guests. Happy Halloween! 🎃

🚨 Not everything is a crisis. Not every complaint is a catastrophe. Not every problem is an emergency. Good leadership means knowing what's urgent, what's important, and what's simply inconvenient. When everything is a crisis, nothing is. #CrisisCommunications #Leadership

📰 Hot off the press! If you're in the area, pick up a copy of today's @vjotimesherald and turn to the front page of Arts & Entertainment for a feature on my childhood. A heartfelt thank you to journalist Aline Valiente for sharing my story so thoughtfully! ❤️

Can we normalize a few things, please? 😂 Somewhere along the way, we decided that perfectly reasonable things needed explanations, apologies, or permission. I'm here to respectfully disagree. What would YOU add to the list? 👇 #ThingsWeShouldNormalize #UnpopularOpinions

Some of the most dangerous words in a meeting? “We’ve always done it this way.” Familiar doesn’t always mean effective. Just because something worked yesterday doesn’t mean it’s the best approach today. Progress starts when someone asks, “But why?” #Leadership

I'M ON BILLBOARDS ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA! 🤯🎉 From selling $2 candy bars outside grocery stores to seeing my memoir advertised on billboards. Life is WILD! 😂❤️ My memoir, I CHOSE TO BE HERE, has officially hit the streets, and I couldn't be more excited!

Sonoma County once celebrated my dad as Foster Parent of the Year. Later, he had seven kids selling candy under false pretenses, starting in Santa Rosa. We brought in over $250,000. I was one of those kids. Now I've written a memoir. @NorthBayNews, there's a story here. 😉

Hey @KTVU! 👋 What does $250,000 in candy sales, seven kids, and one con artist have to do with a Bay Area girl who grew up to become a crisis communications director? Quite a bit, actually. 😉 My memoir just came out, and I'm putting up a billboard in your area. Let's talk!

🎉 NAPA VALLEY, WE'RE CELEBRATING! AND YOU'RE INVITED! ❤️ Join me on Saturday, January 23, 2027, for an afternoon of storytelling and celebration at the Napa Valley College Performing Arts Center Tickets are now on sale, be sure to reserve your seat! 🎟️ bit.ly/Jan23Celebration
