Susan Samakow lives in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. She is a Certified Executive and Life Coach, Trainer and Facilitator. Susan is principal of Susan Samakow Coaching, LLC. where she works with individuals and businesses, pulling together her vast experience in career and life transitions, leadership and career development, and working with business and personal relationships. Ms. Samakow coaches people to give them the clarity and focus they need to move forward, make decisions, as well as to lead more satisfying and fulfilling lives. At the foundation of all of Susan’s coaching is ‘Positive Self Talk’, our inner dialogue, our thoughts. She believes our ‘self talk’ and values guide us, thus, what we say and what we think greatly matters as it influences us in making decisions and judgments. It is therefore very important that our self talk be positive. Susan teaches eight strategies that she developed to help people shift from negative self talk, clutter, to positive self talk. This has proven to be very effective.
