Susie Schumacher Life Coaching

Your Work Speaks for Itself.
Or Does It?


Helping professionals understand why they're being overlooked when they know they're qualified.

let's talk career strategy→

As a retired HR Manager with more than 20 years in public-sector HR, I've seen qualified employees get passed over repeatedly for promotions and career opportunities.

Not because they lacked experience.

Because they didn't know how to communicate their value.



You've Put In The Work.


You've Built The

Experience.


Why Didn't You Get the

 Job?

Throughout my career in  HR, I witnessed the impact work has on people's lives.

I saw the disappointment of being passed over for opportunities. I saw what happened when people stayed too long in jobs that no longer fit.

I could only give so much guidance in my role as HR Manager.

Today, I help professionals better understand their value, clarify what they want, and pursue opportunities with intention.

Because meaningful work matters—to the individual, the organization, and the people they serve.

Coaching to find work that fits—and stand out in applications and interviews.

Hi, I’m Susie.

In that time, I’ve faced numerous high-stress, high-stakes situations, both with executives and the staff I manage. Sue has guided me through my own triggers and responses, helping me develop the awareness to ‘read the room’ and get to the heart of complex issues. She’s also been instrumental in helping me prioritize what truly matters, coaching me through difficult conversations with confidence and clarity. Most importantly, Sue always ensures that my personal core values serve as the foundation for my decision-making. Her deep, insightful guidance has been invaluable in my professional and personal growth."
