Susan's Book
What's Your Mountain?
Your Trail Map to Clarity and Confidence
A practical trail map for anyone facing their own mountain — whether it's a career pivot, a personal setback, the need for more clarity or sense of direction in achieving a personal goal or lifelong striving for a specific purpose. Drawing on her lessons learned along her Appalachian Trail journey combined with years of corporate leadership, Susan offers an inspired, step-by-step guide for others to have more clarity and confidence when the path ahead feels uncertain or blocked by a huge mountain.
"We strove to be 'empowered women, empowering women' encouraging women to not only be active but to also support causes and help others. We were successful, due to the amazing support, kindness, encouragement and donations from others. "
Big Goal + Big Hike = Big Lessons
