THERE IS ANOTHER WAY
Welcome to Genius-Powered Leadership
I help leaders like you discover something transformative:
there's a type of work that actually energizes you.
And when you redesign your life around it, burnout doesn't just
become manageable, it becomes impossible.
This isn't about doing less. It's about doing what fuels you.
Not another recovery plan. A complete redesign for how you
lead, connect, and create.
From Exhausted to Energized
Clarity on what's actually draining you (and why it's not your fault)
Discover your unique Working Genius—the two types of work that fuel you and the two that deplete you. Finally understand why some tasks feel effortless while others feel impossible.
Courage to redesign your work, relationships, and leadership
Learn how to have the conversations that shift your daily reality. Set genius-based boundaries without guilt. Delegate with confidence. Lead from your authentic strengths.
Freedom to live energized instead of exhausted
Build an 80/20 genius-powered life where burnout becomes optional. End your workdays more energized than when you started. Love Monday mornings again.

When I signed up for this class, I was completely new to Working Genius. It has been incredibly eye opening in helping me understand both my genius zones and the areas that feel more like frustration. It brought an awareness not only to my work life, but to my personal life as well. Sue does a wonderful job explaining the different genius types and, more importantly, providing actionable steps to help reframe and think through how to stay in your genius zone. Being part of the group calls was an added bonus. Hearing others share their experiences and learning how we all have areas where we naturally thrive — and areas that challenge us — was both encouraging and eye-opening. The biggest takeaway for me was realizing that overwhelm is often simply misalignment. I truly appreciated Sue’s examples, analogies, and the way she guided each of us toward understanding our own specific Working Genius in different areas of our life. I would highly recommend this course to anyone working on a team or self-employed as it can be applied to work and personal life.

When I unexpectedly found myself unemployed, I struggled to identify the right next step. Sue introduced me to Patrick Lencioni’s Working Genius, and taking the assessment helped me better understand the kind of work that energizes me. When I later received two strong job offers - each very attractive for different reasons, I used those insights to help guide my decision. I ultimately accepted a role where I feel confident I can feel fulfilled and do my best work.
— Kristie Starrett
Working with Sue and learning my Working Genius was a game changer for me. I had done other types of personality and strengths assessments before but none of them gave me the insight around my burnout and exhaustion that Sue did through Working Genius. I was able to let go of the "what's wrong with me" feeling around some parts of my life and switch to focusing on tasks that brought back my energy and most of all, my inspiration. I am so grateful.
