Meet Susie
Founder, CEO and Life Transition Coach
Have you ever felt like your own dreams and desires have taken a backseat to making everyone else happy? I know that feeling all too well—because that’s been my story, too. Growing up, I was taught to be seen but not heard.
As I stepped into adulthood, I carried that lesson with me, constantly prioritizing others while stealing only small moments to do something for myself. I spent 30 years in the corporate world as a legal administrative assistant, pouring my heart and energy into a career I hoped would bring me fulfillment. But deep down, I knew the truth—I never once said, “I love my job,” or felt like I had a true purpose.
Outside of work, life was just as demanding. I was the primary caregiver for my parents, and the guilt of wanting to carve out a life of my own was overwhelming. I can’t even count how many times I said, “That’s it, I’m cutting the apron strings!” But instead, I found myself stuck—angry, depressed, along with being trapped in a one-sided relationship that I clung to, thinking that something was better than nothing. Looking back, I realize it was a mix of blind love and plain old fear of letting go.
Countless mornings, I woke up with dread in my heart and tears in my eyes, knowing something had to change. Self-help books weren’t enough to pull me out of the rut, so I made the decision to invest in myself. A weeklong personal growth course became the spark I needed to light a fire within me.
It wasn’t an overnight transformation, but I began to rebuild my foundation—my values, morals, and self-worth. Yet, I couldn’t figure out why I still felt stuck in my career and disconnected from my true calling. That’s when I took a leap of faith. In 2014, I left the corporate world behind after 30 years and pursued my passion for coaching.
I became certified and started helping others, but doubts and fears crept in. At that time I quickly gave into those fears and gave up, convinced that my struggle with "sales" and "networking" meant I wasn’t cut out for this and returned to a j-o-b.
Then came COVID-19. A scary time for many, but for me, it became a blessing in disguise. My father’s health began to decline, and I knew I had to care for him full-time. I was fortunate to be packaged out of my job, giving me the chance to dedicate those precious years to him. It wasn’t easy, but the memories we made were priceless.
While caring for dad, and close to his end, I knew one day I would have to return to work or do something that allowed me the lifestyle I longed for; I didn’t know what, I just knew I didn't belong in the corporate atmosphere. Scrolling social media one day, I stumbled upon a free seminar with Bob Proctor. Throughout the seminar I was reminded of my love for holding space for those in need and supporting them the best I could. I was returning home to my true calling. And here I am!
My journey is why I’m passionate about helping other women to reclaim their lives. Because no matter how far you’ve strayed from your dreams, it’s never too late to rediscover them and step boldly into the life you were meant to live.
