Sarala Life — Life in Chapters: Careers, Canines, Cabernet & Courage

A life well-poured: work, wine, and everything in between.

Hi, I’m Sarala — a lawyer, storyteller, and unapologetic lover of good wine, good dogs, and good conversation. After years navigating boardrooms, deals, and governance across the Caribbean, I’ve learned that life — like leadership — is best lived in chapters. Some are bold and ambitious. Some are quiet and healing. And most are best shared over a glass of wine and a wagging tail nearby. This space is where I write about it all — the beautiful, messy balance of careers, canines, and cabernet. From reflections on purpose and courage to lessons from leadership, love, and dog walks, these are the stories that shape who I am — and, maybe, who we’re all becoming. Pull up a chair (or pour a glass) and stay awhile. Here’s to life in chapters — imperfect, authentic, and deeply human.

In My Ears, In My Feels

What podcasts are you listening to?

Podcasts have become such an outlet for me — they’ve taken me through some rough patches, kept me company on long walks, and honestly just filled the silence in the best way. While they haven’t quite reached my level of obsession with books, they definitely hold their own.

For fun and full bad-ass energy, Life’s a Joke with Christina Kirkman is my current favorite — light, real, and unapologetically funny. The Mel Robbins Podcast has seen me through everything from career pivots to emotional treks (literally), and House of Maher can be hit or miss, but Ilona? A beast in the best way.

I also sprinkle in Call Her Daddy when I need boldness, Girls Bathroom for the sisterhood feel, and Aware & Aggravated when I’m in a take-no-prisoners mood. Coming Up for Air hit hard during my “bitch against the world” era.

My picks change with my mood — but that’s the beauty of it. There’s a podcast for every version of me. I would say much like I wait for a Nora Roberts In the Death Series to drop, currently I do look forward to my Thursday Life’s a Joke pod to take me through the afternoon.

    Oh wow! Thanks for this. I do listen to Mel every now and again. At first I get her b/c I just saw an alcoholic. The way her lips look. Then I blogged and said that and someone checked and me and told me she was once an alcoholic and I was like okay. So, I’ve read her book, Let Them, and now I listen to her every so often. I’ll some of the others out too.
