About Sue

“I believe we are all pilgrims each on our own journey to find the way. ” Sue Kenney

After being suddenly downsized from her corporate telecom career, Sue Kenney left the comfort of her world to embark on a pilgrimage journey on the Camino de Santiago de Compostela in Spain. She walked 780 kilometers and went alone in the winter.  On this journey she gained a sense of clarity about her purpose in life. When she returned home she began telling stories and now lives her life from a perspective that the Camino is a metaphor for a life journey. By using her voice to inspire others, Sue presents a unique perspective to creativity, simplfying life and leadership based on her extensive background in the corporate telecom industry, as a world master’s rower and blended with her profound life-altering experiences as a pilgrim.

Sue encourages principled leadership values in all of the work she does. This includes; leadership from a place of love, compassion, truth and integrity. Through her writing, life coaching, and workshops, Sue teaches and challenges us to live a life with purpose and how to create  that which we truly desire.

Your Camino: Sue leads groups on the Camino path, providing coaching and support before the journey, during the walk and on the return home.

Sue shares stories from the journey on the Camino and her experiences as a world class competitive master’s rower, Sue imparts personal experiential knowledge, offering valuable life lessons together with pragmatic elements for an entertaining and inspiring event that supports a taylored message. 

As a workshop designer and  life coach, she gracefully integrates the lessons of the Camino with her corporate and athletic expertise, offering skills and tools that can easily be integrated into daily life.
