In this week’s episode of Inside The Mind, Jen & Allie sit down with the one and only Sue Deans — Corporate Innovator, Women’s Empowerment Coach, NLP Master Practitioner, and all round conscious human.
After walking away from a 25-year marriage in 2019, Sue’s journey of self-discovery cracked her wide open, and she hasn’t looked back. From the boardroom to the heart space, Sue shares what it truly means to reclaim your power, lead from within, and stop living by other people’s definitions of success, strength, and femininity.
In this powerful conversation, Sue takes us through her transformation using NLP, EFT, and Time Line Therapy® — and what happens when a woman stops striving and starts remembering who she really is.
If you’ve ever felt like there’s more to life than ticking boxes and holding it all together, this episode is for you.

Ask yourself: Am I leading from my head, or my heart?

“Control is fear wearing a mask.”
“The world will reflect back exactly who we are being.”
“Nothing is happening TO us. We are creating everything — moment by moment, thought by thought.”
Takeaways:
Freedom begins when we stop living by someone else’s version of womanhood.
Emotional intelligence isn’t about control — it’s about presence and compassion.
You can rewire your story at any time — it’s never too late to return to yourself.
A woman in her heart is unstoppable. She’s soft, strong, and deeply in tune with who she is.
