Susan provided structure and inspiration throughout this project. Her constructive feedback helped me to complete my chapter. She is a joy to work with. - Wendy Juergens

Thank you, Susan, for wanting my story to be in your book. I have to say

that you made what was difficult for me much more manageable. Because of your love and support, I gratefully wrote my chapter from abuse to healing

with Infinite Love.

I don't believe I would have continued writing this chapter if it wasn't for you. The way you supported me and all of us was indeed a blessing. Thank you for helping me share my story because I want everyone to know we can all heal.

I would highly recommend you speaking with Susan if you are at all thinking of writing a book or a chapter in a book. She is an Amazing Gift to know as a friend, Colleague, Coach and Inspiration! - Joanne Sapers

Susan is a compassionate and passionate leader. She stepped carefully through the process of writing and publishing: assembling our group, establishing a safe space for sharing, and helping us to bond with each other, to write, to learn, to process our emotions, to edit our stories and bios, and ultimately to celebrate the publication and share the good news with the world that we have produced a valuable resource for others who are grieving. Thank you, Susan. Well done! Barbara Barry
