In this special solo episode, Susan shares behind-the-scenes lessons from her appearance on The Oprah Podcast. Discover how years of preparation and purpose can lead to extraordinary opportunities, how to steward visibility with integrity, and how to turn gratitude into growth.

This isn’t just an episode about a big media moment, it’s a heartfelt reflection on what it means to stay consistent, stay true to your mission, and trust that the right people will find your work when the time is right. Consider this your reminder that you don’t chase moments like this - you build toward them one intentional step, one thoughtful piece of content, and one act of service at a time.

Here’s what else you’ll hear in this episode:

• How consistent, clear messaging reaches the right person at the right moment when you stay committed to your work.


• The intentional preparation and mindset Susan used to show up professionally and honor the platform and community she represents.


• A simple shift that turns nerves into gratitude, presence, and grounded confidence in high-visibility moments.


• Insights from meeting Oprah and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and the reminder that true greatness is humble, steady, and rooted in service.


• The real “Oprah Effect”:  expanding impact, deepening connection, and inspiring others through meaningful visibility.
