Design What's Next

When women honor where they've been and step into who they're becoming the world shifts.

I help women in transition uncover clarity, confidence, and purpose. Through life design and brand clarity coaching, we explore what’s next for you — sometimes through coaching alone, sometimes through brand clarity, and often through a brand that reflects who you are now and invites the right people in.

You don’t have to navigate this season on your own. Together, we’ll uncover
what matters most now and shape a next chapter that feels true to you.

Hi, I'm Sue Forrest, a Life Design Coach & a Brand Designer for Women in Transition.

I help you honor where you’ve been, uncover what’s quietly calling you forward, and design the life or brand you’re meant for—with clarity and intention.

Clarity about who you are now, what matters most, and how you want to show up changes everything. With that alignment, your presence becomes magnetic—whether in life, at work, or through a brand that reflects you fully.

Whether you’re navigating a transition, craving confidence, or sensing that something is missing in your brand or life, my role is to help you uncover what feels deeply authentic and aligned. When clarity comes first, everything else begins to take shape.

"Moving forward is about honoring every part of your story—pain, strength, doubt, and wisdom—and allowing it to shape who you're becoming."
