You don’t need to fix yourself.
You need a better ship. A ship that can hold you. Not just in your work, but outside of it. In life!
My work is where deep nervous system repair meets divine remembrance.
I help therapists, doctors, pastors, coaches, and soul-led professionals rebuild their inner vessel — so they can stop performing strength, and start sailing in divine alignment with who they were born to be.
Living from wholeness, truth, and love.
Trusting your True Self and Thriving in your Calling Beyond Societal Expectations.

Are you compromising your own energy, talents and dreams because your family really needs you?

Are you holding off what you KNOW you should be doing because there is always something more urgent with kids, projects, your spouse or ‘life’?
As a doctor, speaker, leader or coach or therapist, you’re deeply aware of your own limiting beliefs and patterns—and you’ve done the work.
You’ve been on a journey of growth and healing for years, and you have something truly valuable to offer your clients.
Yet, despite all your knowledge, skills, and dedication, there’s still a ceiling you can’t seem to break—whether it’s in your work, your practice, your energy, public speaking, or client breakthroughs. No matter how much mindset work, financial shifts, or sheer effort you put in, something keeps holding you back from doing the thing you feel called to do.
Clients drain your energy, work can feel like an uphill battle, and despite putting more into your work than ever, the system around you seems to resist the changes you know are necessary. And deep down, you wonder: Is it all really worth it?
The truth is, the barriers you face are rooted in deep-seated trauma and self-sabotage patterns formed in early childhood. And simply trying to ‘fix’ them won’t work—in fact, it often leads to more frustration and exhaustion.
It’s time to shift from effort to surrendering into who you were always meant to be deep down inside.
Discover how to work from a deeper, more sustainable place within yourself—one that allows your true self to emerge and thrive.
Clear the path for the impact your soul is calling you to make—and the transformation your clients are truly seeking.

WORK WITH SUZE
I have worked with trauma for the past 20 years and studied trauma from all angles. From the most severe obvious abuse to where clients had a ‘perfect childhood’ not realising their developmental trauma patterns underneath it.
I teach coaches, therapists, doctors and health practitioners. They recognise trauma and recognise that helping ALL of their clients (instead of a few) reach their fullest potential needs a deeper approach.
I help to shift both their level of working with trauma, their own lifes results and their business success.
The world is waiting for you!
ABOUT SUZE
My name is Suze. I started out as a shipbuilding engineer, feeling only safe in the hidden world of ships at sea. On shore I was suicidal and felt lost.
Until I decided to stop understanding life, and start allowing life to help me instead of fight everything I saw around me all the time.
What if you stop looking for the perfect strategy, doing everything on your own, willpower and all those tricks in search of results and just felt safe to trust your SOUL? I did it. And you can do it too.

REVIEWS
I helped countless people, with their dream, their business, and expressing who they really are in the world. Watch, listen and read what they say about my approach to coaching and trauma therapy.
“Nothing Makes Me Happier than seeing the Spark in someones eyes when they FEEL it.”
