Opening a business can be scary and overwhelming. You don't have to do it alone!

I started Defined Success to coach entrepreneurs and attorneys in opening and running their own business and defining their own success.

Leadership, people, and systems, it's just that easy.


Hi, I’m Sarah!

I started my law practice (thus my own business) directly out of law school. I wanted to set-up my business in way that was very different than other firms. Several of my mentors (and any one else that want to give advice) told me it wouldn't work and opening a business fresh out of law school was a terrible idea. Not to mention, starting in a small town with a specialized practice is IMPOSSIBLE!

9 years later, Sarah's Law Firm has grown to 4 locations, 3 associate attorneys and 7 awesome team members. Oh yeah and I had 3 babies during that time!

I defined my own success, I made many mistakes along the way and learned from each one. I have a passion for sharing what I have learned with others and helping them develop their dream career as well as surround themselves with a rockstar team.

Leadership, people, and systems, it's just that easy.

"When you find you need a conversation with someone who will lift your spirits and open your eyes to unleash your potential, go to Sarah."

Sarah Ostahowski is one of those rare individuals who has the capacity to see opportunities in environments where others see barriers. As a former student under my supervision in a law school clinic to an accomplished practitioner, I regularly lean upon to share her wisdom and hard-earned experience with my students. 

Sarah never fails to amaze me and leave those who hear her speak amazed as well. When you want advice that is straightforward and unclouded with technical jargon, go to Sarah. When you want practical advice that will move the ball forward couched in clarity of thought, go to Sarah. When you find you need a conversation with someone who will lift your spirits and open your eyes to unleash your potential, go to Sarah. Every time she speaks, I learn and so can you. Follow her on social media and take the time to read and information she offers to share with you and you will find a path to success.
