On behalf of the Planning Committee, I would like to thank you for presenting at Dartmouth Nursing Grand Rounds – How to Balance Work and Family by Knowing and Articulating Your Needs, Setting Boundaries, and Prioritizing Self-Care. It was truly a pleasure to have you present three sessions to our staff.

Susan,
Thank you for your presentation to our Chamber Series on Wellness this week. You did a wonderful job, and the recording is uploaded to YouTube: https://youtu.be/7qYPJW2SN7Y.
A virtual presentation with little opportunity for interaction is always more difficult for any speaker, but you made it incredibly engaging and interesting. Many participants especially enjoyed the balance wheel of life priorities. After your workshop, I found myself still thinking about that wheel and adjustments I need to make in my own life. You always inspire great self-reflection coupled with practical, actionable steps. I learned so much! I will highly recommend your presentations to all organizations looking to support their employees.
Thanks again for sharing in our series, Susan.

Our Management Team at the Manchester City Library hired Susan to help us in balancing our work duties with self-care. Her insight and experience assisted us by encouraging open discussion at our sessions regarding how we were feeling and how we could realign ourselves to stop the burnout. We found our sessions to be very interactive, professional and useful. It helped our team to further bond together as we learned about the various stresses in our lives which could impact our work relationships. We learned how to prioritize the various aspects of our lives to better support one another and our teams at work. We would highly recommend working with Susan!
Take care,
Denise

Dear Susan,
Thank you so much for speaking to our virtual Rotary Group today. I heard from several people who truly enjoyed it. It was eye opening and a good reminder that no matter the status of your relationship there are always new things to learn. This is especially important given the stresses of the pandemic. I love in person, but I think this is a good alternative for where we are right now. Thanks, again.

Susan McKeown and her husband, Patrick, are wonderful presenters who get rave reviews from the engaged couples to whom they have spoken on communications, finances, and issues related to married life. We are proud of the many talks they shared with engaged couples and were blessed to have them as presenters with our program for over thirty years.
Susan wrote a book entitled Beyond the First Dance--A Guide for Couples to Think Beyond their Wedding Day and will soon release her second book, Beyond the Tango, A Guide to a Thriving Marriage While Juggling Careers, Kids, and Chaos. We are happy for her and excited to offer this information as she expands her speaking events with audiences promoting healthy relationships, strengthening marriages, and preventing divorce. She can be contacted at 603-668-4859 or through her website at Beyondthefirstdance.com.
