💛 About Susan

I’m so glad you landed on this page, because I want you to know something important: you can rise, even after everything falls apart.

I’ve weathered some of life’s fiercest storms—breast cancer (twice), chemo, radiation, double mastectomy, loss of my hair and my sense of identity, divorce, betrayal, deep grief and overwhelm in raising a child struggling with addiction and suicidal ideation, and the heartbreaking loss of my sister and my mom.

There were moments I didn’t think I’d make it… and moments I was afraid I would.

But here I am—still standing, still healing, and more passionate than ever about helping other women restore their soul, rediscover joy, freedom, and find meaning, even in the aftermath of pain.

I’m a Certified Grief Counselor, Transformation Coach, Enneagram Facilitator, Forgiving Forward Coach, Art Therapy Practitioner, and Stress Management Specialist—but more than any title, I’m someone who gets it.

I’ve been through the fire. And now, I walk alongside women who are ready to rise from the ashes—with purpose, peace, and renewed passion.

If you’re seeking real talk, faith-based wisdom, deep healing, and a safe space for your messy middle, you’re in the right place. This is your space to breathe again—to reclaim peace, become lighter, and bloom into a life that’s vibrant, joyful, and deeply fulfilling.

At Triumphant Together, we believe healing is possible, hope is real, and no one should face life’s struggles alone.

🌿 About Heartwell Workshops

Healing through art and imagery has played a pivotal role in my own healing, leading me to create Heartwell Workshops. Our workshops are designed to help you release what weighs you down and awaken what’s hopeful within. Come as you are—leave lighter, centered, and renewed.

During this two-hour gentle and restorative experience, participants are invited into meaningful reflection while exploring color, texture, and simple art processes. You don’t need any artistic skill—only a willingness to rest, explore, and be open to God’s healing nearness.

As you create, you’re guided to release what weighs heavy on your heart and make room for what’s hopeful and life-giving. Many leave feeling lighter, centered, and deeply connected.

This is a beautiful experience for:

  • Small groups

  • Church teams

  • Staff retreats

  • Women’s ministries

  • Leadership gatherings

  • Friends seeking intentional connection

If your group is ready for a restorative, meaningful shared experience…
