"IT WAS CLEAR TO ME THAT SUE IS A RISING STAR! SHE HAD THE AUDIENCE IN THE PALM OF HER HAND WITH CAPTIVATING STORIES OF EMPOWERMENT AND TRANSFORMATION, AND REALLY CONNECTED WELL WITH THE AUDIENCE."
- Jay (Lake Harriet Spiritual Community)
| WELLNESS KEYNOTES |
Sue arrived home on Thursday April 30th, 2015 around 8pm to her husband leaving as she entered the door. He informed her he'd be staying over at his dad's home that evening, which had happened more frequently lately due to his dad's shoulder surgery a few weeks prior. At 9-months pregnant, tired from working all day, Sue said goodnight and headed upstairs to check on her older son and draw a bath. As she looked around, Sue realized that her husband had moved his stuff out of their home while she was at work that day. In this moment, denial and shock hit. And hard! What had started as a typical argument earlier that morning became a transition point in Sue's life within seconds. Soon, Sue would begin the next chapter of her life which she calls the Epic Chapter of Caterpillar Soup. Within a snap of a finger, Sue was a single mom of a non-verbal autistic 5 year old son, a newborn due any day, beginning a 3-month unpaid maternity leave, left on an empty bank account, and filing for divorce. What Sue did not understand fully is that our unconscious thoughts are the brushstrokes on our canvas of life, and she had painted this scenario all on her own (unconsciously for 4 years).
Sue had been diagnosed with a "Bad Case of the Hungry Little Caterpillar", which she realized was an epidemic in our society. After decades of external consumption of temporary fixes and happiness, Sue learned the "cure" to this epidemic. She is ready to share her wisdom and lessons in an entertaining, educational, and humorous manner.
Sue combines over a decades worth of training and experience as a Licensed Psychologist in various mental health clinics and her own Private Psychotherapy Practice since 2005, with her personal journey, to help the audience understand how to create profound and lasting changes in their lives within months vs. decades of psychotherapy. Having learned mind-body-spirit healing modalities, Sue realized we are capable of healing even the deepest traumas we face as a collective.
This Keynote will tell an honest, authentic, humorous, and inspiration tale of Sue and others who understand that the "struggle is real" until the transformation into your TRUE POTENTIAL is your NEW REAL! The audience will not only be entertained, but also feel mesmerized by Sue's authenticity and inspired to take action in addressing their own well-being, transformation, and reconnect with their own deepest knowing of who they truly are.
Audiences who have enjoyed this speech have included mental health conferences, retreats, & spiritual communities & groups. It would also be a great fit for College Campuses, Trauma focused groups/topics, and any setting that would like to better understand how to use mind-body-spirit modalities to heal more quickly and efficiently (so you can create the life of your dreams).
Your audience will walk away remembering:

Your audience will walk away remembering:
- Your past does not define who you are today, unless you allow it to
- We are capable of healing even the most traumatic life experiences and illnesses
- The world is our mirror (so is our body and mind)
- We all receive intuitive guidance, the difference is who listens and acts
- All answers to life's questions lie within
- CAUTION: When you LEAN IN, expect MIRACLES!
When Sue was 12 years old, she bumped into her brother as she navigated upstairs and he downstairs. He noticed she was leaving the bathroom, and stated "I am surprised you didn't break the toilet, fat ass". Standing face to face, she muttered the best 12 year old comeback she could form: "takes one to know one". Then quickly moving past him, Sue retreated to her bedroom. This was her sanctuary. And she cried. She had learned long ago, it was better to be vulnerable alone than around her family.
The truth was, Sue had belief systems deeply ingrained in her subconscious and unconscious long ago. Years of physical abuse, emotional abuse, and sexual abuse - Sue lacked self worth, a sense of self or identity, and had no clue what self love was. Sue was born into a family that handed down shame, abuse, and unresolved trauma like it was going out of style. It was a family heirloom from one generation to the next. Unlike gems or riches, this type of heirloom was unwanted. At the end of the day, hurt people, hurt people. But, Sue was determined to stop the cycle of abuse, one way or another. Her life fell apart along the way as the old cracked, molted, and fell to the ground. Journeying from shame to proclaimed self love: one step at a time.
This keynote will tell an honest, authentic, at times raw and uncomfortable - and other times slightly silly combination of stories of Sue and others who understand the deep importance of shifting Shame-based Belief Systems. When we aspire to make our children's future better, we need to begin by looking inward at what we are telling our children on what to believe as they watch, interact, and witness what we believe about the world. When we change ourselves, we change the course of generations to come. How powerful is that?
