Sue Bowles is a survivor turned thriver as an award-winning author, speaker, and Master Certified Life Coach. Having done the hard work of healing from a childhood rape, an eating disorder, other sexual assaults, and twice considering suicide, Sue now defines the effect the life-altering events have on her. The events no longer define Sue; she defines them. “You only have to be a step ahead to help the person behind you” is the bedrock to the value Sue brings. She founded My Step Ahead and is the “Chief Instigator” behind the Dare to Believe Movement, whose purpose is to nurture others to ‘dare to believe that you matter,’ knowing that nothing changes until that bedrock belief is solidified. Whether speaking on a podcast, a stage, or one-on-one, Sue’s enthusiasm is contagious, shining the light of hope wherever the listener needs. She is a sought-after Master Life Coach and Speaker, having appeared on over 100 podcasts in only 2 years. Sue’s award-winning first book, “This Much I Know…The Space Between” is available on Amazon and Kindle. Sue is also a co-author in the international anthology “Breaking the Silence: Voices of Survivors” released January, 2024. Sue’s most rewarding time in life was serving her parents in their later years, having lost both of them two years apart. The impact of that time continues to influence her life, challenging Sue to keep their legacy alive through the things she learned from them.
