Shift, Shed & Shine . . . Strive, Thrive & Happily Arrive in Times of Change

In our world, too many people are living a current reality that is drastically different from the life they desire. We are running at breakneck speeds-too often, out of balance. We are expected to do more with less and have more tasks to complete than we have hours in the day. How do you help your team get OFF the treadmill, calm the chaos and greet change from a position of strength and positivity? It all starts with a SHIFT.

Based on her upcoming book, SHIFT, SHED, & SHINE . . . Your Go-To Guide for Resilience in Times of Change, Susan shares the strategies and mental shifts necessary to get "UNSTUCK" from those habits and thought processes that sabotage success. With humor, heart, and tremendous passion, Susan helps audience members to create the clarity and vision that will allow them to move more swiftly and confidently in the direction of their dreams.

Give your team the tools they need to shine in their position and in their lives.
