5: Stepping out in Faith with Health Coach Susan McDaniel
09/19/18 • 47 min
Interview with Susan McDaniel, High Energy Health Coach
Susan McDaniel mentors and coaches busy, driven women who want to “ditch diets” for good and start a lasting journey to a healthy, more energetic, fully-lived life. As a wife, mom of two children, and former corporate executive turned business owner, she completely understands the challenges women face each day setting and meeting health goals for themselves and their family. .
Susan’s passion for wellness was sparked at an early age when her father had a cardiac arrest at 37 years old. She became passionate about health and helping others on their journey after seeing the amazing healing her father brought to his body through lifestyle modifications.
Susan left the full-time corporate world recently to pursue her passion of health coaching. This required a huge leap of faith. She still has fear but knows that God placed this passion in her heart and that she must pursue it! She also believes that God doesn’t plant a passion within us that he doesn’t want us to follow through!
Susan’s greatest desire is to help others live a full life. Susan says that taking the upgrade for her means taking steps to make sure you are not getting stuck in the daily grind. She encourages us to step back and refuse to settle for a life not fully lived!
Susan says that her non-negotiables are getting up early and having her quiet time, scripture reading, and affirmations. She also makes sure that she gets lots of rest and hydrates with water throughout the day.
Susan’s advice on following your passion is to pray about it, lean into the fear, and find someone already doing what you want to do and hone in on their skills. Borrow their belief until yours is strong enough. The thing that sets successful people apart is that they don’t give up, they fail over and over but continue to persevere.
You can join Susan and over 20 experts in her online webinar series called Ignite your Energy. The webinar series launches on September 18th, 2018. It is absolutely FREE and there are also free giveaways from each speaker. You can join here www.igniteyourenergyonline.com
