A Little About Me
It's been a journey!
I am a dual certified (SHRM-SCP and SPHR) Human Resources/People Leader, Marketing and Business Strategist for women online, and GLP-1 friendly IAWP Certified Wellness Coach/AADP certified Holistic Health Practitioner. I am also a fierce supporter of women and children and an autoimmune educator + advocate.
My focus is supporting, coaching, and creating programs for women, people-focused organizations, and online businesses so they can positively impact their own lives and those of others.

HR and People Strategy
During my time in HR, I have launched and led multiple initiatives to enrich and improve company culture and the employee experience.
I've been honored with nominations for the MISHRM Human Resources Lifetime Achievement Award in both 2024 and 2025, the HR Unite! Inspire Award, and the 2024 HR Unite! TA Trailblazer Award (which I won!).
Business and Marketing Strategy
In my time as an online strategist, I've helped thousands of women gain confidence, establish clarity in their businesses, get visible and drive audience growth, create simple strategies and automation to grow their businesses, crush their tech challenges, and start making sales.
I've had my hands in business nearly my entire life starting when I was a kid selling my creations in my neighborhood. My business Bliss Candles was a Featured Seller on Etsy, featured in the book “How to Make Money on Etsy,” and a community favorite - and also a trailblazer in online marketing for small business.
My work has been published and featured in the Huffington Post, Medium, Thrive Global, the Amazing Women of Influence Summit, and on my beloved podcasts.
When I'm not loving on my business and dropping HR gems, I'm obsessing over my patio, plants, technology, dogs, friends, music and anything light pink.
I can't wait to see how I can help you!

Suzanne was fabulous! I can’t believe how much she helped me even with just the first phone call. She listens to what you say, asks the right questions to make you think and then has excellent suggestions. She was able to guide me to a smarter marketing approach in just minutes. Great ideas were in front of me the whole time but I couldn't see them until she pointed them out.

I did a coaching call with Suzanne today on visibility and it was WOWZERS so good. Like really, y'all. It was value bomb after value bomb. Definitely worth 10x what Suzanne is charging!

I worked with Suzanne for several months And was so happy working with her. She is so energetic and has so many good ideas that it’s an absolute pleasure working with her. She always has some good insight and ways to help you further your business as well as motivating you to get done what needs to be done. She is also helped me with my mindset, with Goals and how to drill down my ideal client. I have loved working with Suzanne and would highly recommend her.
"I worked with Suzanne Proksa because I needed to change my mindset about my business to get visible. Suzanne helped me by motivating me to try something new and different. She steered me toward where my people were. The result was that I stepped out of my comfort zone and started a YouTube Channel! This allowed me to reach so many more people and do something that I never thought I would do. One thing that I liked was Suzanne's no-nonsense approach to working with her clients. She will let you know what your business needs with solutions that you never thought were available. I found the experience amazing and just the shift that I needed in my business. I would recommend Suzanne Proksa to people who need help with motivation and mindset to get your business to where it deserves to be."
