COMPLIMENTS
"I've loved working with Susan Lucci! She's especially helpful if you want to think about your career as a part of your larger sense of self. She brings a grounded spiritual perspective and practical tools.
I felt like I could bring my whole self to the discussion."
Libbey, community leader
"In Circle, we help each other BECOME who we want to BE!" Maggie
"Your space was welcoming us with all of our senses: warmth, comfort, fragrance, and sound. It was always a pleasure to walk in and be greeted by you. I really enjoyed the handouts and homework. To me that part added a lot, and I would really encourage people to do at least one little thing if possible in-between sessions. You had a beautiful balance of preparation and a plan but also going with the flow of the moment. Your feedback to people when they spoke was always warm and encouraging while challenging us with a new twist or thought when possible. Thank you!" Sanna
"Sue has a clear communication style and is an excellent listener! Working with her both 1:1 and in Circle, I find her encouraging, flexible, and willing to share so many creative ideas, which are helpful and eye opening One of her many gifts is helping to guide us into heart/soul space, She is a natural leader and someone who pulls goodness and purpose out of those around her. Sue, please keep doing what you do. The world needs you, and I appreciate you!" Mary Lisa
"My life is better because of this ongoing conversation on a deeper level." Laura
"Being in Circle with Susan is very valuable.... she helps me stop and think... forces me to consider what matters most ....This is the other conversation I want to keep going on in my life." Ana
"I've experienced Susan's work in a number of different ways: as writer, as a leader and co-creator of the Purpose Movement, as a Purpose Guide and as a group facilitator. Susan shines most in the Global Purpose Leaders Well of Wisdom calls she facilitates.
I love the space she creates, firmly but gently moving us into a deeper place where we become more connected to our own purpose as well as the collective soul of the group. What I love most about the Circles she leads is the way she handles breakdown: with zero reactivity, offering her calm, generative presence, guiding us back to the agreements of the group and the process we're in. This creates the safety to make mistakes and take risks because we know she is there to hold the center. I highly recommend Susan as a group facilitator, soul guide and Circle tender."

"Where can you go to have deep conversations, explore thought-provoking ideas and questions with like-minded women in a safe environment? CIRCLE. Being able to gain clarity around how I think, feel and what I believe, while connecting with other women, was the greatest gift I received from participating in a Circle."

"There's no other place I get this type of conversation! It's always new, different and enlightening!
Circle is as necessary for me as breathing!" Maureen, devoted circle member & community activist
"Sue is a leader who naturally pulls goodness and purpose out of those around you. You are an excellent listener and an encouraging guide filled with helpful ideas. You guided me to my heart/soul space during each session, which is a gift you possess. Thank you for this amazing time together, and please keep doing what you do.
The world needs you, and I appreciate you!"

"I love being in a space where anything is possible!" Sara, age 9
“Thank you for being a seeker and for the level of energy and beauty you bring to the work. Thank you for all the beautiful handouts and hours and hours you spend preparing for each Circle.
I love being in the sacred space of your home. I know evolutionary change is being seeded. I am privileged to participate. Susan has aligned herself with the life-force energy of the Universe. Go find your Destiny. Become a seeker. Join a Circle.
I love Susan and you will, too."
Ann, age 65, longtime Circler
"When I saw your Cultivating Circles course online, it was like an answer to a divine calling!
The course is fabulous; I really got a lot out of it!" Rhonda, Sacramento CA
"Susan's workshop was perfect for my daughter! She guided her through a process of thinking about what she wanted from the next four years and from her life beyond that. She gave her space and time to prompt her thinking and writing. If my daughter hadn't taken that time, she would have sat for hours trying to find the perfect thing to write about. Susan's process led her to write her essay in a relatively short amount of time.
Much of what Susan did was to allay the anxiety and fears associated with the pressure put on the students. She affirmed the best in them and made sure that they knew that they had to dig deep to find out who they are, what they want and how to best express themselves. Susan could not have been more supportive; she made the whole process positive and as stress-less as possible. I can't say enough about the whole experience!" Karen, school social worker and mother of three
“You made this stressful process so much easier!!! I absolutely recommend your services. This whole process is so stressful but you make it much more manageable. You are so available; your help and feedback always exceeded my expectations. I will be sure to tell every Junior I know that when they start this college process,
they should reach out to you.” Sam (18)
“Thank you so much for the help and honestly, this is really fun for me to develop a piece of writing and really shake off the coal around it to make it a true gem. I didn't think I would enjoy it this much! One really needs an incredible support team when applying to college. I feel as though I got that from you. Mrs. Lucci is a rockstar!” Kayla (18)
“I would recommend you to anyone. While we worked together you helped us think in a more sophisticated manner. I was a good writer, but you helped me broaden my view and see so many avenues I could take to tell my story. You also helped me with many grammar issues that neither myself, nor spell check were able to catch.
You change lives with your work. You are gifted at what you do.
You have helped me and my Link friends become better writers.
Now we are on our way to top universities across the country. You have the patience to do great things with students. Thank you!” Jordan (18)
"Thank you for a great job last night. It sounds like some really good conversations and expressions of interest in following-up with various projects took place. I really appreciate your ability to handle last minute adjustments and even changing our design at the last minute.
I think we made good choices and you implemented them beautifully! "

"I owe so much of the peace of mind needed to get through the coursework this past year to you and our Circle. Thanks!" Emily (35)
"I joined one of Susan’s first circles years ago. The topics on which our circle have focused have morphed over the years, but the core group of women have remained remarkably constant. For me, our Circle provides a safe space to share insights and challenges that we face each day as we try to live more centered, meaningful lives. Having such a group of like-minded, strong and interesting women has been a consistent source of inspiration for me. As our Circle leader, Susan provides highly relevant information from a wide variety of sources that I simply would never have the time to ferret out on my own. It’s a time I carve out for myself to nurture my spiritual side and enjoy dialogue at a deeper level than most daily chitchat allows. It provides a place for renewal and support. I always leave our circle feeling energized."

"I love the dynamic of Circle...being with people unlike me,
in different places in life. It shifts my perspective." Anne
"Six years ago, amidst a very busy schedule raising three small children, I stumbled up an invitation to join a local Circle. Never having heard of one or read about one, I signed up. The topic interested me wholeheartedly: "Creating Civic Consciousness". The conversations created within those two hours every other week were like none other I was having anywhere in my life. The depth, quality, and meaning of those conversations with a gifted facilitator are still enriching to me today and spur me on to think of great possibilities. Six years later, I continue to be involved in Circles because I always leave Circle feeling energetic, full of hope, and best of all--changed for the better!" MS
"I find that my Circle experience has helped me grow stronger, take risks, and provides a supportive place where I can articulate new strengths. Gathering with like-minded women, opening our hearts, and sharing our dreams together in Circle, has opened me up in many ways. I was able to apologize to a previous employer and soon thereafter I received a new job offer to return to work with the same company. I have been able to take my new strengths into challenging situations and grow in ways I never dreamed!"
