Sara Arnstein, M.A., Founder

Educational and Career Services Consultant

At Ready to Launch Consulting, I believe every student and young adult deserves the tools, confidence, and support to thrive as they navigate academic and career decisions, from high school through post secondary and into early career.

My own academic journey began at the University of Western Ontario, where I developed a strong foundation in psychology. I later earned a Master’s degree in Industrial and Organizational Psychology from New York University (NYU), deepening my expertise in human development, coaching, and performance.

Before founding this practice, I spent more than two decades in professional services, holding senior leadership roles at Deloitte and EY. There, I specialized in coaching, mentoring, and leadership development—helping individuals from young professionals to executives identify their strengths, build resilience, and thrive in high-pressure environments.

I chose to bring this experience into the education space because I am passionate about supporting students through important life transitions. My approach is holistic, combining guidance on academic and career pathways, with a focus on building confidence and readiness.

I work with high school students and families navigating post secondary decisions, as well as with university students and graduates who are seeking clarity on their direction and next steps. Through this work, I help clients move forward with greater confidence, purpose, and a clear plan.
