BE HEARD IN YOUR HERD!

Do you hear and trust your inner voice? Have you unlocked the courage and wisdom already inside you?  

Why not? 

If you are feeling stuck, lacking in communication fluency, or struggling to lead yourself or others with confidence, I'm so glad you're here! I've been where you are right now. I know it's hard. But, you are not alone, and you don't have to navigate this by yourself.  

Welcome!

My name is Susanna Massie Thomas.

I’m the founder of The Heard Leader, a Certified Mindset and Leadership Coach, and a lifelong horsewoman. I help women professionals who feel stuck, or unheard to reconnect with their gut, discover their authentic voice, and develop grounded leadership skills from the inside out so they gain the recognition they deserve, and achieve the results they want —  without burning out, losing themselves, or feeling like they have to push harder to be seen.

Blending my background in the Fortune 500 arena as well as in the non-profit world, along with my life- long experience with horses, I approach these challenges in two different but complementary ways:

 

  • I offer personalized virtual mindset and leadership coaching where we delineate your goals and develop the insight, focus, and forward momentum you need so that you are comfortable speaking up, standing out and creating change.

​​

  • I lead experiential group workshops and retreats where horses serve as dynamic partners in self-awareness, growth, and leadership development, creating transformative. non-mounted learning experiences that stay with you long after the session ends.​

Whether we're working directly with horses or applying what horses can teach figuratively, you'll get the space to slow down, hear yourself think, find your voice, so you can start showing up in a way that's congruent and authentic.​

Whichever way, choose the path that fits you—virtual one-on-one coaching or immersive in-person workshops and retreats with horses and become a heard leader of yourself and your own life. 

At the Heard Leader you can:

1.

Take leadership of your personal/professional life.​

2.

Learn to be heard.​

3.

​Embrace your true self.​

4.

Share that with the world.

 

 Surviving and thriving in a herd is all about operating as a unit to promote optimal living for the whole. When we interact with horses we get a visceral experience of how we are showing up, and what it takes to be heard and accepted by the herd, insights that help us with our human herd.

Why Horses?

Horses are mirrors in which you can see yourself as others see you.

As Eleanor Roosevelt said, "the way to begin is to begin!"

"Intuitive. Empathetic. Creative. Solutions-oriented. This describes Susanna Thomas in a nutshell. She graciously holds space, intently listens, and masterfully mines the insights required to help you remove any barrier you face. Each session I had with her enabled me to move forward in meaningful and powerful ways."
