Susan Saller is a passionate writer, speaker, small business operator, people connector, teacher, coach, podcaster, and host of the SMALL STEPS BIG WINS™ Podcast. She possesses a genuine commitment to instilling belief, courage, and antifragile confidence that is woven into everything that she does.
​
Sue’s journey from a life of control and complacency to one of self-love, freedom, and acceptance was not easy. Motivated by her own past struggles and encouraged by her coach, Austin Linney, her book was written to inspire others that transformation is within reach for anyone willing to take the first step. Her experiences have given her a profound understanding of the importance of taking risks, embracing discomfort, and celebrating one’s accomplishments, all of which she shares with her readers in a compassionate and relatable way. Her dedication to continuous learning, coupled with her unwavering passion for empowering others, continues to drive her forward on her mission to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those she encounters.

Throughout her diverse career, Sue has worn many hats. From parenting three amazing kids into adulthood, to teaching math at the middle school and high school level, to becoming a financial advisor for several years, to running a small business, every challenge is embraced with enthusiasm and commitment. Being a jack of all trades has served her well for the path of life that the universe has sent her. She now resides in Davenport, Iowa living the life she has created.
​
So much occurred over the course of 30 years – many trials, many sacrifices, many lost opportunities. But her story of self-discovery and overcoming challenges reveals that’s never too late to change the trajectory of one’s life. No matter what hurdle or trial you face, you CAN overcome anything.
