Finding Joy in the Busyness of Life With Susan Amato-Henderson
from Personal Development Trailblazers Podcast · host Digital Trailblazers
Welcome to the Personal Development Trailblazers Podcast! In today’s episode, we're talking about how to find joy when life feels busy, overwhelming, and nonstop.Dr. Susan Amato-Henderson retired in 2023 from her first career with over 25 years of experience as a Psychology faculty member at an institution of higher education. She holds a Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology. She loved mentoring students, so opted to pursue certification as a life coach upon retirement. She has now been coaching for 2+ years, and is loving every minute of it! Very generally, her mission is to assist clients in finding their true joy! Susie states “I was close to 50 when I finally found my true joy in life, and life now is unbelievably different from my “pre-joy” life!” As she looks back, it is with clarity that she recognizes that people often don’t know what they are missing, or that they have never experienced. As she reports, “My normal was normal, I never questioned it until things fell apart!” Therefore, her coaching goal is to let clients know that a joyful life is theirs to have with some hard work and resiliency skills!Susie guides individuals toward personal and professional success. As the Founder of Sisuzy Coaching, she specializes in career transitions, mindset shifts, and adaptive capacity. Adaptive capacity is a relatively new term used in this context, and is, essentially, one step beyond the notion of resilience. Adaptive capacity is the ability to transcend adversity and emerge stronger than before, whereas resiliency is getting through the challenges unscathed. Life demands resilience, the ability to survive even the most negative experiences, but those who adapt based upon those experiences have the upper edge. This is what she hopes to share with clients, the ability to persevere and adapt. To achieve this goal, she infuses mindfulness skills throughout most of her coaching experiences, as learning how to effectively regulate emotions and anxiety is a skill that, unfortunately, is often missing in people.
