Life Coaching
Rise from Chaos
What do you dearly want in life? Less angst, more control over life, a lighter self, a clearer sense of purpose? Go from just surviving to excited and confident?
The pandemic had me thinking, if not now, when? I was itching to have more impact, to use all of my talents. Connect2Self was reborn — it’s been daunting and elating. I am asked to evolve every day and am grateful for it.
How about you?
Slow down and check in within. As someone who had overcome loss, health, relationship, and career challenges, I know what chaos is like.
Nurturing a positive relationship with ourselves makes everything easier.
Your heart and soul know what you need. Our role is to discern the message.
We create an ongoing alliance where you are in the driver’s seat. You are seen, asked empowering questions, and become accountable for stepping toward your goal. We have aha’s. We find ways to reinforce neural pathways for new beliefs and actions.
The hero emerges. Choice and freedom become possible.

Client Feedback
Sue is a gifted coach who listens deeply. What started as a career-focused coaching relationship to help me reset my objectives became an opportunity to reconnect with my whole self. Having worked with other coaches that sometimes latched onto a comment, leading our session down an unsatisfying rabbit hole, I found Sue’s wholistic approach, thoughtful preparation, and insightful observation the right balance of professional and intensely personal. This resulted in sessions that may not have covered what I wanted to discuss and ended up being what I needed to discuss (and hear and feel). Along the journey, Sue was a stalwart guide there to:
- remind me how far my journey had progressed when I felt like I was standing still;
- guide me back when so many aspects of life were pulling In different directions, and
- celebrate when I reached my desired “destination”.
If you are looking for a coach that understands both what’s needed to succeed in the boardroom and in life, I cannot recommend Sue more wholeheartedly.
Carol, VP, Fortune 500 Healthcare Firm, NY
Sue was able to focus me from a wild frenetic dreamer to a happily single-minded person, taking the thousand projects I’d told her I want to do and getting me to narrow down my summer to the actual doing of a dream book project! Her positivity along with her efforts to help simplify my thinking about what I might want made me more relaxed and happy with myself and therefore with my relationships than I’ve been in a long while, maybe ever. I was actually able to set a specific goal and achieve it, and therefore to see how necessary it is to break my desires for my life into smaller, do-able chunks. So grateful.
Stephanie Thompson, Writer/Sound Healer/Emotional Tuner, Sacred Bloom Tribe, Brooklyn, NY
When I first started working with Sue, more than anything, I felt lost. I felt overwhelmed by the challenge of putting together a puzzle without knowing what image I was trying to form. I knew I had all the pieces, and yet I felt silly. I thought Sue would wave a wand and reveal a simple solution. Instead, Sue’s marvelous coaching not only reminded me of why I love to solve puzzles in the first place, but also helped me discover that not knowing what the end result will look like is the magic. Skillful, thoughtful, and brilliant.

I had a quarter life crisis right before my 25th birthday. I spent so much time pleasing people and ignoring my feelings that I had no idea who I was anymore or what I wanted to achieve in life. I reached out to Sue because we both went to Wellesley College. Her coaching re-energized my spirit. We have worked through many topics together (e.g. exploring my cultural roots as an Asian American woman, career paths, and developing deeper, more meaningful relationships). I feel so incredibly blessed to have met Sue and highly recommend working with her.
Irina C, Educational Coach, Boston, MA
When I began working with Sue, I wanted to have a breakthrough with my stress-related condition and become more productive. Sue’s intuitive approach has been on target regarding how I am experiencing things, and she has given me several tools for dealing with my angst. Visualization is one such tool; drawing as a form of release is another. Sue’s unique background positions her to help clients in a way no other professional can. Sue cares deeply about each of her clients and calls upon her incredible talents to enrich the lives of all.
