Epic Cultures.
Epic Lives.
SHRM-SCP · SPHR · CERTIFIED WELLNESS COACH
25 years in HR, a few awards, and plenty of lessons learned the hard way. I mentor the next generation of HR pros to build workplaces people actually love. Eight straight Best & Brightest wins, a 2024 HR Unite! TA Trailblazer Award, and two MISHRM Lifetime Achievement nominations later, I'm here to share what actually works.
And women can't pour from an empty cup, which is exactly how Happy Healthy & Rich™ was born. I thrive on helping women figure out all the things - physical and mental health, career, and everything in between.

Meet Suzanne
It's been a journey.
I've been the HR department of one, the Director in the room, and the person who had to deliver the hard news.
Over my 25+ years leading HR and People, I've built HR functions from scratch, led a team through massive growth and a painful rightsizing, kept retention rates high, created candidate experiences that impress, and helped my company win Best and Brightest eight years running.
Along the way I learned two things. Great culture isn't a perk. It's a strategy.
... and women can't pour from an empty cup, which is exactly how Happy Healthy & Rich™ was born.
