Create a Life of Alignment, Purpose and Joy: Personal Coaching with Susan Dunlop
Empowerment Through Coaching
A 6-month coaching program designed for individuals whose lives have been touched by childhood trauma. Susan works with survivors, unharmed siblings, parents, children, and intimate partners. She knows from personal experience the profound ripple effect trauma has on our most cherished relationships. The impact may begin during the time of harm and manifest in coping mechanisms and unhealthy behaviours that linger long after they are needed. Susan understands, does not judge, and sees all clients as capable of creating a life lived on their own terms.
Reconnecting with Your Inner Creator
In our fast-paced world, many of us live in a constant state of low-level anxiety, and the ‘victim’ mindset becomes our default. While this mindset may serve us during challenging moments, it isn’t sustainable for everyday living. Anyone who survived childhood trauma knows the feeling of this mindset well. The fight, flight, freeze or appease response was over-active, particularly in families where the abuse was from within the home.
The beautiful truth is that we can reconnect with our inner creator mindset, allowing us to start anew and grow stronger together, modelling healthy change for ourselves and future generations.
This program is shaped by Susan’s insights gained from more than twenty years of exploring best practices, investing in her team’s growth as the leader of an award-winning healthcare organisation, and her passion for personal and professional development.
Supporting that passion, she also invested in years of study, gaining certifications as a trauma-informed coach, a professional coach recognised by the International Coaching Federation and an NLP practitioner and hypnotherapist. All of these professional certifications ensure a high standard is met in all she delivers throughout each consultancy with clients as both a coach and program facilitator.
With Susan as your guide, you will deepen your self-awareness and explore your values, passions, and aspirations, helping to cultivate a life that resonates and is you living authentically and joyfully.
This program supports healing, guiding you to make conscious choices that co-create a better life and a better world.
By embracing your innate creator mindset, you will transform yourself. That is what begins a ripple effect of positive change to address the ongoing mini and macro traumas of life.
If you’re ready to rediscover your inner strength and embrace the possibilities that lie ahead, this program is for you.
The ‘Creator’ mindset, as introduced by David Emerald in The Power of TED*® (*The Empowerment Dynamic), has revolutionised the way individuals break free from reactive drama and embrace personal empowerment. As the co-founder of The Center for The Empowerment Dynamic, David’s work has provided a framework for individuals and organisations to transform how they think, relate, and take action. Susan became Australia’s first certified facilitator in this work in 2021.
At Blue Borage, we use the TED*® and the 3 Vital Questions® frameworks to help clients discover and nurture their inner Creator and focus on what they do want rather than on what they don’t want. Whether navigating personal challenges or organisational hurdles, the principles of Creator, Challenger, and Coach offer a powerful, universal language for positive change. You will begin to experience the shift within yourself early in your coaching journey as you apply these principles to align your mindset and actions with your deepest aspirations.

Testimonials
Susan’s coaching program stimulated profound, purposeful and rapid change for me.
Her multi-faceted approach combines deep coaching, Q&A, introspection and creativity, and Susan adapted it to my specific circumstances and needs. Grounded in a deep exploration of values, gifts, purpose and dreams, Susan’s coaching has provided me with clarity and has set me on a path of intentional, expansive and directional growth. I began the program with low self-confidence and much doubt after some major life challenges. On completion, I feel content, confident and driven to live my passions, goals and life in my unique way. Thank you, Susan, for taking so much time and care with my coaching. I have grown so much.
