Benefits of choosing to work with Empowered Mind, Body & Breath

Heal the Unseen Wounds

It’s time to honor your emotions and shed the heavy weight of the past that you’ve been silently carrying around, like a stubborn backpack filled with rocks. I’ll provide a safe space for you to release the pain that’s been buried deep within, allowing you to finally breathe and feel free. If you find yourself comparing your current self to the vibrant person you were in your 20s, feeling like you’ve lost something along the way, know that you’re not alone.

Making changes can feel overwhelming, but together, we’ll confront those unseen wounds and transform them into powerful stepping stones for your growth. Healing should be a journey of empowerment and self-discovery, not a frustrating puzzle that leaves you feeling lost. Let’s embark on this path together, where you can reclaim your strength and embrace the lightness of being truly yourself once again.

What deep-seated wounds from your past are still echoing in your heart, preventing you from embracing the vibrant life you deserve?

Navigating Perimenopause

The burden of confusion and overwhelm during perimenopause can feel like an anchor weighing you down. Hot flashes, mood swings, and the sense that your body is no longer your own can leave you questioning your worth. You may find yourself frustrated that the same diet and exercise routines that worked in your 20s and 30s no longer produce the same results. But it's important to remember that this is not a reflection of your willpower or discipline—it's simply a natural consequence of the hormonal changes your body is experiencing.

It's time to reclaim your narrative and embrace this new chapter with self-compassion. By acknowledging these struggles and allowing yourself to heal, you can pave the way for a future filled with empowerment. Together, we'll confront the emotional turmoil and societal pressures that often accompany this phase of life, transforming feelings of inadequacy into a powerful journey of self-acceptance.


What fears and insecurities are you holding onto that prevent you from fully embracing the powerful woman you are becoming during this transformative phase of perimenopause?

Rediscover Your Inner Light

In a world consumed by the beauty industry and social media pressures, it's easy to feel inadequate. Curated images and unattainable standards make you question your worth and how you measure up. But it's time to uncover the radiance that's been dimmed by toxic comparisons.

Through personalized coaching, I'll help you peel back the layers of self-doubt and societal exp. You are not defined by numbers or filters; your beauty is unique and irreplaceable.

You’ll learn to embrace your authentic self and celebrate what makes you truly special, and transform the shadows of comparison into a fierce glow of self-acceptance. You deserve to shine unapologetically and reclaim the beauty that is uniquely yours—because the world needs your light now more than ever.

What comparisons are you making that dim your inner light, and how would your life transform if you chose to celebrate your unique beauty instead of measuring yourself against others?

Transform from Within

This isn’t just about weight loss; it’s about liberating yourself from the exhausting cycle of fad diets and quick fixes that promise instant results but only leave you feeling defeated and disheartened. These superficial solutions often mask deeper issues, leaving your mind and spirit unhealed. True transformation requires a holistic approach that nurtures your mind, nourishes your body, and ignites your soul.

Imagine breaking free from the relentless pressure to conform to unrealistic standards and instead embracing a journey that honors your unique story. It’s time to confront the emotional wounds that have driven you to seek quick fixes and replace them with lasting change that empowers you to thrive. Together, we’ll dive deep into the root causes of your struggles, fostering genuine healing that allows you to cultivate a vibrant, balanced life. You deserve a transformation that resonates from within, one that celebrates your authentic self and lights the way to a brighter future.

What deep-seated beliefs about your worth and body have led you to chase quick fixes, and how would your life change if you chose to embrace a holistic transformation that nurtures your mind, body, and spirit?

After 25 years in health, fitness, and wellness, I’ve discovered a passion for problem-solving that’s all about calling out the daily BS we face.
 
The diet, beauty, and pharmaceutical industries thrive on our insecurities, steering us away from our bodies’ natural wisdom. In this fast-paced world, we’re pushed to hustle and compete, all while our well-being takes a backseat.
 
We weren’t taught healthy coping mechanisms; instead, we hide behind the “I’m Fine” mask, feeling guilt and shame for our habits. We numb those feelings with a drink to unwind or turn to food to fill the void. Meanwhile, we ignore the simple things that actually heal us—like quality sleep, sunshine, and nourishing our bodies and minds.
 
This leads us to live in bodies we don’t recognize, constantly battling aches and pains, obsessing over diets, and trying to be the strong one for our families. The invisible weight we carry can crack that ‘perfect’ facade, and eventually, we break down.
 
It’s time to unveil the pain we’ve been hiding for the sake of our well-being. If we’re running on empty, we can’t give our best to those we love. I’ve been there—I was a high-functioning depressive for decades. Taking off my mask, identifying my triggers, and fighting for a better life helped me reclaim my power from depression.
 
High-functioning depression isn’t a weakness; it’s a silent struggle. The exhaustion, isolation, and guilt are real, and acknowledging them is the first step toward reclaiming your life. I’m not a doctor, and I won’t pretend to be one. My mission is to equip you with the tools to reconnect with the basics needed to thrive and remind you that you’re not alone on this journey.

What My Clients Are Saying

- Caren J.

"I have never worked with a coach before. I was blown away by Susie's attention to detail and how very clearly she explained how my body was responding. She knew exactly what I was experiencing before I even told her."

- Teresa R.

“Where did you come from and why didn't I meet you 10 years ago?? You are disrupting the system in a GOOD way! I have learned so much about my body working with you and cannot thank you enough for helping me FINALLY loving my body - inside and out!!"

- Gracie B.

“Your passion, knowledge, and enthusiasm for what you teach shows! I love your no BS approach and that you tell it like it is - you speak the truth! You didn't just help me lose weight, you gave me hope for the future and our kids. Thank you!”

- Sarah H.

“Sleep issues? I don't have any, I sleep just fine - or so I thought anyway. Turns out I was just in denial! With the small and super easy changes you suggested, I have more energy, feel amazing in my body, and actually know what quality sleep is now!”

- Bethany D.

“I always said 'I tried everything and nothing worked', but I guess that wasn't true. I never thought I had a problem with alcohol until I took it away. Revealing it was what had been stalling my progress - with my weight and my mindset.”

- Michelle S.

“Girl, you blow my mind! At first I was mad, not at you, but at how much we are being lied to! It's no wonder It's no wonder women are so frustrated with dieting. What you say makes so much sense and what you teach actually works!”

- Marie D.

“I struggled forever to get results on my own. I was always jumping to the next thing. Who knew NOT dieting was my answer?! I've been able to lose 30 lbs. and keep it off for over a year!”


- Melissa R.

“I always thought it was food and workouts that made a person "healthy". Working with you I learned how sleep (or lack of in my case) and my stress was not allowing my to make progress."
