Helping You Grow Your Lactation Practice with Purpose
Build a Thriving Private Practice with Guidance from Sarah Schooler, MSN, RN, IBCLC
Starting a private lactation practice can feel overwhelming — especially when you’re balancing family life and the desire to make a real impact. Sarah Schooler, founder of Thrive Lactation Center, understands that journey firsthand. As a busy single mom of three boys, Sarah built Thrive from serving a single location in Estero, Florida, into a rapidly growing multi-location lactation practice serving families across Florida and Georgia — all while keeping family and life balance at the center of her success.
Through her 1:1 business coaching for lactation consultants, Sarah helps IBCLCs create the foundations for a sustainable, profitable, and fulfilling private practice. Her coaching is designed for those who want to grow with purpose — building a business that thrives without sacrificing family or sanity.
