A Glimpse Into My Journey

I’m Suyanne, or Sue for short. I’m an intuitive energy healer devoted to compassion and creating safe spaces for people to reconnect with themselves. My roots blend Native Brazilian, African, and European heritage, though I like to think of myself simply as a human living on Earth.

If you're curious about how my life unfolded to bring me here, I invite you to read the full story below.

The Child Who Could Feel

From a young age, I sensed what others couldn’t see. I remember doing things that other kids didn’t — like praying over massage oils before gently rubbing them into my father’s back, or placing my hands on his head to soothe his chronic pain. I didn’t know it then, but I was already practicing intuitive healing.

My spirituality wasn’t something I was taught — it was something I felt. It pulsed through me like something ancient and familiar. But it also made me feel different. Misunderstood. At times, I thought it would be easier to let it go, to silence that part of me and just try to fit in.

I grew up in a family that wasn’t religious. Still, I was curious. I explored many different spiritual paths — Christianity, Spiritism, even esoteric philosophies — but I never felt truly drawn to any of them. The one place that consistently felt like home was a Buddhist temple near my house. It was the most peaceful place I knew. I remember the quiet. The softness. The stillness. Something in me recognized it as sacred.

That quiet knowing never fully left me — even when I tried to forget it.

A Heart for Justice, A System That Hurts

At 17, with the belief that I could help build a fairer world, I chose to study Law. I wanted to protect those without a voice, to reduce the inequality that hurt me so deeply to witness.

But as the years went by, reality hit hard. Despite my dedication, I came to see that the system was deeply broken — and so was my heart. The very laws I hoped would bring justice seemed to serve only those already in power.

During that time, I also experienced one of the greatest heartbreaks of my life: I lost someone I loved to suicide. The guilt and grief were unbearable. How could I believe I was meant to help others… if I couldn’t help the person who sat beside me every day?

I nearly gave up on my degree, on my path, on myself. But that’s when I began therapy. And it saved me (quite literally). To this day, it’s one of the things I recommend to everyone I meet: therapy changed my life.

I managed to graduate in 2016, but I was crushed — emotionally, spiritually, and mentally exhausted. I needed a change. So I decided to go on a trip to the U.S., hoping to find something… or maybe, to find myself.

A New Life, A New Path

When I arrived in the U.S., I wasn’t sure what I was looking for, but life opened a door. I joined a tech company and, not long after, became a team leader. I loved supporting my team and watching people grow — not just professionally, but personally. That part truly lit me up.

Later, I moved into strategy, hoping to make an even bigger impact. I was proud of the work I was doing, and one of my biggest accomplishments was going back to school to earn my first certification from Harvard Business School.

In 2018, I became vegan, and it marked a deeply meaningful shift in my life. I began to reflect not just on what I was eating, but on how I was living. I started asking myself how I could contribute to more peace and love in the world, beginning with the small choices I made each day. Consuming animals and supporting that industry no longer felt aligned with my values of compassion, care, and the desire to ease suffering. Choosing a plant-based lifestyle became a quiet act of love — a way to live in greater harmony with what I believe in.

I started investing and quickly made a significant amount of money. At the time, it felt like a reward for years of hard work. But by 2022, I had lost almost everything I had gained. That experience humbled me and forced me to reflect.

On the surface, things still looked successful. But inside, I was waking up. The life I had built no longer felt aligned. That quiet voice I had ignored for years began speaking louder and more clearly.

Losing that money was painful, but it cracked me open in a way that success never could. I had gained and lost, but the things that truly mattered — my health, my family, and the connection I had with the people I loved — remained the same. It was a quiet awakening. I began to see that no amount of external gain could replace the peace that comes from living in alignment. What I was really searching for wasn’t wealth. It was meaning, presence, and a deeper sense of purpose.

Devoting Myself to Healing

The calling grew stronger with each passing day. By early 2023, I could no longer ignore it. I made the decision to leave corporate life and follow what I had always known deep inside — that I was here to help others heal, grow, and reconnect with their inner light.

In January 2023, I began offering mentoring, coaching, and energy healing.I didn’t feel fully ready. I doubted myself often. But something in me knew this was the path. To ground myself more deeply in both knowledge and confidence, I enrolled in a master’s program in Neuroscience and Behavior. It brought together the science and the soul.

Soon after, I felt a pull to seek wisdom beyond the classroom, in the world itself. I began traveling to places that carried ancient energy and sacred teachings. I explored temples in Egypt, prayed in Bali, retreated in a monastery in Thailand, and explored medicinal plants in Brazil. From the lush landscapes of the Philippines to the peaceful lands of New Zealand, I let the earth teach me what no book could.

Each place left a mark on me. Each experience softened and strengthened me. And every step along the way reminded me of a truth I had always known but often forgotten: Healing is not about becoming someone new. It’s about remembering who we truly are.

Where I Am Now

After nearly two years of traveling, I chose Hawaii as a place to pause and root. For six months, I've been calling this sacred land home. Here, I deepened my connection to native wisdom, attuned myself to the rhythms of nature, and discovered a deeper peace that only stillness and presence can bring.

It was here that I redefined what I truly want to offer the world: A gentle, soul-led approach to healing, grounded in intuition, neuroscience, and deep presence.

My sessions are not about fixing. They’re about remembering. They’re a space for authenticity, clarity, softness, and for returning to what is real and true within you.

You don’t need to be fixed. You need to be seen, held, and supported as you come home to yourself.
