Unlocking the Mystery of Relationships

I must be a late bloomer because I certainly haven't taken a linear path to the life I live today.

The course I've chosen has had many twists, turns, and detours, and has sometimes been a painful and tiring journey. Yet it's led me to a career and a lifestyle that serves me and others in ways that are exciting, energizing, and life changing.

The bulk of my career was spent as a teacher, school administrator, and facilitator of events. While these experiences built an important foundation for my work now, my experience as a single, independent woman looking for love was always at the top of my priority list. I was married and divorced twice before I was 30, and have experienced a variety of long and short-term relationships. I've tried dating online, offline, and blind dates that were set up by well-intentioned friends…all the while, unable to find the love I craved.

My turning point came when I decided to retire from the field of public education to embark upon a new type of education that combines concrete research and self-discovery to unlock the "mystery of relationships."

Today, my social life is full, rewarding, and in sync with all the other aspects of my life. My creativity flourishes, my friendships expand, and yes, I am dating again! I enjoy listening to live music, dancing, creating art, appreciating wine and microbrews, exploring the natural beauty of Oregon, meeting new people and of course, building a successful business that helps others; most importantly, I still get to teach and help people develop to their fullest potential!

I am graduate of the Relationship Coaching Institute, the world's first and largest international relationship coach training organization. I've also completed training with the Matchmaking Institute located in New York City.

After being married for most of my adult life, finding myself single was a big shock. The idea of dating and where to start was daunting to say the least. My first attempts with on line dating had me pulling my profile down in fear. When I contacted Susan, all I knew was that I was just clueless about dating. With Susan's wisdom, guidance and help in learning the program and principals of Conscious dating, I began to date and had more opportunities for growth than I would have imagined. Susan's one on one support had me dating like I knew what I was doing, and her assistance with my profile had wonderful responses especially for someone dating from a rural area. Susan even at one point contacted and found appropriate men online for me to communicate with and also didn't hesitate to tell me the ones to run from! I've recently met a wonderful and amazing man and we're exploring the possibility of a long term relationship. I can't recommend Susan enough. She's a smart, fun and funny coach, an intuitive match maker and life assessor and….. as a result of working with her, I'm also very honored to be able to call her my friend.

Sincerely, Nancy Farran, Medford, Or.
