The need to punish and the constant obsessing is gone
Suzie, There is a small chart I copied into my journal off of your website at the beginning of this dark journey. It contains 3 stages. I can't tell you how many times I have looked at that chart asking myself when I would get to stage 3- Learning and Acceptance? It seemed like I would never truly get there. In an odd twist of fate it was my trip to CA that gave me the final push. The first week, of my two week trip proved to be unpleasant and challenging at best. I wrestled my ego what seemed like minute by minute. It was mentally exhausting. And it was inside of one of the most impulsive things I have ever done that I found peace. Faced with having lived in CA for 10 years and never taking the opportunity to go see the Golden Gate Bridge, I made the decision to go at 5:00 pm Saturday night. As I made it to my destination and I stood on a hill top staring over the Bay area with the Golden Gate Bridge in my foresight (a life long dream of mine), I embraced that moment and felt so courageous...
I was in tears today
Thank you so much Suzie... for everything. I was in tears today, but your articles and coaching sessions on ending the affair really help me. I appreciate the help more than words can express. Thank you!
We have been able to make some very meaningful progress in our recovery
I would like you to know that Suzie's website, blog and coaching sessions have been so very helpful for me and my husband. I so appreciate her outlook and I/we have been able to make some very meaningful progress in our recovery.
Thank you so much for your amazing coaching session on Monday
Dear Suzie, Thank you so much for your amazing coaching session on Monday. I will yelp you and put a positive review on your website. You are one in a million. He is now moving back in, he told me he loved me (hadn't for months) and that everybody makes mistakes and that he will get over this. Oh thanks Suzie, you saved my marriage.
I don’t think there would be any hope left for my relationship if I hadn’t discovered you
Dear Suzie, First of all, I want to thank you for your amazingness! I don't think there would be any hope left for my relationship if I hadn't discovered you and your brilliant online coaching programs. And I am speaking from a lot of experience with majorly traumatic episodes in my life. Through all of those experiences I have researched and read profusely about the matters I was dealing with and psychological and spiritual approaches to dealing with them. This latest trauma of betrayal has been no different, and you are clearly THE expert in my view. Your voice, your language, your vision, your understanding, your compassion, even your Caribbean accent, all work together to form the perfect guidance for all parties involved in the affair. So thank you with all my heart.
We are still together, and madly in love once again!
Hi Suzie! You may not remember us, but we (Jack and Nora) were the cattle ranching couple from Colorado. We purchased your Marriage Rehab and did a session with you about a year ago. We are still together, and madly in love once again! If it is possible, we would love to briefly Skype with you sometime to say THANK YOU "in person" (but we don't want to take up any of your valuable time from other couples who need you). If not, we want to say you are incredible (!) and you helped us to get back in touch with our authentic selves so we could get our marriage back on track. Thank you, thank you, thank you. God bless!
I just ended an affair with a married man
Thank you for this. I just ended an affair with a married man who I really at a point believed loved me and told me he was going to leave his marriage. But when it came to times I needed real results, he said he can't give me answers at this time. So I knew I had to leave. It lasted 7 months. But I before that, we were friends for over 10 years and it hurts. I ended it a few days ago and I was looking for support of course. This is one of the best things I've read. So I just want to say thank you.
We are doing great since our 3-day weekend intensive with you
Suzie Hi! Just a note to tell you that we are doing great since our 3-day weekend intensive with you. Mark has now much more "awareness" in all fields of his life: Me, Kids, Work and it is a real miracle to see him acting in a new way. Thank you! As for me, I am feeling safer and I am starting finally to relax and enjoy the renewed energy. Words can't tell you what a blessing you were/are to our lives. God Bless you. Missing you tons!
The End of the Affair was a God-send
The End of the Affair was a God-send! It was VERY helpful. Love the Quiet 10 program. It's helping me sleep better. I felt the way the program was outlined was helpful for me in that it started off identifying the emotional affair and how damaging and disruptive it still is even though it is in the mind. Also, realizing how I was vulnerable to this. I thought also the steps to overcome this were awesome too - especially kicking this person out of my mind and raising the rent! I am going to review the program a few more times. I have ALOT of inner work to do. I have been friends with this man in my life for 25 years! The last year it did cross the line. Thanks so much for you help!
I will definitely book some more coaching with her
It was a great session I had with Suzie, more than exceeded my expectations and was of great help. Thank you very much for organizing this and I will definitely book some more coaching with her.
The sessions helped tremendously to better manage the negative thoughts
Good Morning, Thank you so much for this, I can't remember the last time someone did something as nice as this for me. I'm so lost, with the aftermath of this. I wish I had someone without judgment to talk to. I don't have any friends I feel comfortable enough to talk with about what happened... only family, and they are biased to my situation and frankly tired of hearing about it. They either want me to move on or forgive! That simple. I needed help in forgiving and moving forward to save my relationship. I was completely upside down on my way of thinking. Suzie's sessions on forgiveness and healing have helped tremendously - to better manage the negative thoughts that run through my head. Warmest Regards! "Change your thoughts and you change your world. " ~Norman Vincent Peale
We look forward to completing the all the healing and forgiving sessions
Working with Suzie was a blessing
Please let Suzie know that her session with me was nothing short of amazing and comforting. Despite this small set back, I am still grounded and moving forward. She is truly a blessing and I feel fortunate to have had the professional services she provides. Thank you so much!
Today, my heart is full of forgiveness.
Suzie, This experience has been life-altering. You have given me a new perspective and have framed this even in a way that I was unable to do on my own. I woke again at 4:00 am (but) the first words that came to mind were... "Today, my heart is full of forgiveness." I love that man so much and I know that he is worth fighting for. Thank you for your wisdom, talent, charm, empathy & humor.
You are what we are most Thankful for
Hi Suzie, We wish you and yours a beautiful Thanksgiving and Christmas Season! We are Thankful for you helping people like us ... who 'walked into ... pure hell ... and are trying to find our way back to the 'real love and respect' we had for each other. We are making progress... I know we still do love each other. I hope our love can handle all this necessary 'shaking off the dirt' that spit upon us, during his 'affairs-escape-rides'. And so many other affairs I am certain he has had and will not yet or ever admit - Thank you Suzie, for being available to help us find our way back to some sort of peace of mind. You are what we are most Thankful for. Your passion to help others is a gift we all will take with us and be grateful for....no matter what the outcome is. Thank you so much!
He looooved the Skype couples session
Suzie, You were amazing yesterday in focusing on his charisma awareness! He looooved the Skype couple's session. You are such an inspiration! I love you dearest Suzie 😉 Mmmwah!
I woke to the best morning I have had in well over a year
Suzie, Thank you, thank you, thank you. I woke to the best morning I have had in well over a year. We have done such amazing work over the last 2 days. I can't wait for day 3. Your insight, knowledge and personality, along with your tools you have provided me, have shortened a very difficult journey. Thank you for the bonus... a new perspective in dealing with my relationship with my daughter.
Repairing Trust and Inspiring Honesty seems to be the missing brick
Thank you for the swift reply. The 4 sessions I have listened to so far are very helpful indeed. I have read other materials about marriage, but these sessions are by far the best: the advice given is specific, practical and the relief seems to be immediate (although not yet permanent). Sometimes it feels like Suzie is talking directly to me (us). I was just looking at Repairing Trust and Inspiring Honesty. It seems to be the missing brick we need right now to rebuild our relationship. Keep up the excellent work you do, you are truly life savers.
We would like to upgrade to Marriage Rehab
We would like to upgrade to Marriage Rehab. (please charge our card on file) I am just starting out with the Betrayed Partner recovery course and have only finished the First Aid session. I have also explored Suzie's goasksuzie.com website. Her message of hope and forgiveness for one's own growth, for the wellness of the self and of the family, and, if possible, also salvaging the marriage, is presented in a logical, realistic, and (in my estimation) comprehensive way. This is what lead me to purchase the Betrayed Partner bundle after reading much of what's available on her website. So much of what she says just somehow "rings true" for me and is insightful and logical. She seems to blend respect for the wonder of life with respect for and acknowledgement of the realities of the situations, emotions, etc that I find myself confronting at this time of extreme challenge in my life. She is clear about the things that she believes must be done, and leaves the rest open as the choice of the individual. This instills confidence and trust. I have recognized that forgiveness is central to my recovery from this experience, and have been looking for a...
I used to fly off the handle FIRST then calm down after
Suzie... Pat yourself on the back... I am not dependent on anyone and although lonely... Can happily survive on my own... This was never the case before coaching. I want Linda to be okay more than anything... I want her to want us and our family but I now know I can and will survive if we split up. I have looked after family, business, food, school, ironing, etc etc... Not perfect but work hard and can survive. I WANT Linda but don't NEED her... This is thanks to Suzie and my hard work (Alec takes some credit lol). That said... I love Linda... Never understood how much until all this so actually although the worst time of my life.... I know I am a survivor. I have more friends now I have coped and succeeded at being a dad. I support the wife without smothering. I listen... Not dictate. And as Linda said last night... I used to fly off the handle FIRST then calm down after... Now I think before action. Thanks Suzie... Don't worry... I also take credit... but just want you to know that you showed me how to do it. 1. Never violate free will...
Suzie’s teachings and warm approach is what has made the difference
I'm writing just to share that my husband and I have used many of Suzie's session from her Marriage Rehab online workshop, and have also been seeing a counselor regularly for nearly the past year. In addition to this, I have found an appetite for reading and listening to teachings of several great thinkers and spiritual teachers of our time. It is not in any way an overstatement to say that Suzie is without a doubt among them - she is so much more than a marriage coach, and I know that I have been blessed to have found her work right when I so desperately needed to hear, embrace and incorporate it into my internal life and my interactions with those around me. My family is much stronger and healthier for it, and I am grateful for a new start and newfound empowerment to make good and healthy choices, listen to and know and like myself better, to set boundaries, and to be gentler and stronger at the same time. Forgiveness has been a very hard process, and every time I feel myself letting go more, embracing that forgiveness more - knowing that self trust was the biggest element...
She’s the first person to break through the pain of my spouse’s affair
Is there a way to share this with Suzie? I just want to say THANK YOU. She's the first person to break through the pain of my spouse's affair. What he did hurt terribly. I started self-destructing and giving up hope. I hated him and his lover. She lived with us for a while after the tornado -and this affair started before that time. A part of me died to learn this was going on two years, during the time that I was completing my master's degree and helping people in disaster recovery full time. She acted like she was my "friend" and he brought her to live with us knowing they were already having an affair. Unbelievable. I sat in a cemetery two Saturdays ago thinking about life and death, and I parked near an angel statue and played Suzie's mp3 on forgiveness. I think I played it 5 times before it started to sink in. As I looked across from me, I saw a tree, with what appeared to be 2 broken hearts. In that moment, I realized that maybe my husband was deeply hurting to have turned to another woman and he's probably hurting now from the...
My husband and I have not experienced infidelity (yet)
I'd just like to say that my husband and I have not experienced infidelity (yet), but as I read Suzie's articles, I could see that our marriage could easily head in that direction if we do not make some changes. I was really drawn to the "infidelity proofing your marriage" concepts that Suzie speaks of. We are taking the approach of fixing things between us before it gets to infidelity because all of the factors that lead to infidelity (passiveness, boredom, feeling in prison, etc.) is already there. Thank you, again.
Without Suzie’s help, we would have gone our separate ways
To the others out there: What can I say? My life was in shambles and the slew of bad choices I had made left me empty and miserable. In trying to save my marriage, I came upon Suzie on the web, and it was as if someone had left a light on in the dark. Desperate for any help. I booked a 60-minute call. Just in that first hour, I knew I found the help my wife and I needed. It was if she knew me. And her frankness and compassion made me feel at ease and open. More so, her philosophy and knowledge was unparalleled, I led my wife to her, and both of us got this feeling, not of a counselor, but of a friend. Suzie helped us down the road that would save our marriage. And I say help, not LEAD!!! Because, while she is there for you with knowledge and understanding, it is you that must do the work. The work is the key. And all I can say is that she will definitely help you get the answers you are looking for. Trust her and her method, everything she does has a reason, everything there...
My prayer is that our testimonial would encourage others on this journey
I am so impressed with your quick response any time I’ve reached out to you. When my wife and I get through all the mess she’s created (and I believe we will) I would love to explore ways to help you get this information out to others in need. I found the site via a Google search and told my wife about it. She agreed to purchase your home study program for couples, only because I asked her to do so. She felt like she was in no position to argue against the purchase. However, once she began to play the home study sessions related to the “wayward partner” she found the information there life-changing. She told me a couple of days ago that it seems every other sentence or two contains something of great value for her. I, too, have found the sessions in the Marriage Rehab course to be a tremendous help. I just finished going through the “Healing the Hurt You Didn’t Deserve” for about the 10th time. My wife and I are going away this weekend. I’ve really struggled with anger these last couple of days so reviewing the “Healing the Hurt…” program this morning has...
Have spent a good part of the afternoon soaking in the program
Thank you for solving the issue with my email and helping me to find my Betrayed Partner program. I logged on successfully and have spent a good part of the afternoon soaking in the program. Perfect information at the perfect time... Please let Suzie know how truly grateful I am. Thank you!
I have been to a lot of counseling but having the recordings is even more helpful
I didn't want to call cause I was embarrassed, but found the coaching sessions so hopeful I had to reach out. I just wanted to say thanks to you and Suzie. I think I would lose my mind without these coaching sessions. I have been to a lot of counseling but having the recordings is even more helpful as I can stop listening to my own inner destructive voice and listen to Suzie. I go to them whenever I start spiraling with anxiety and helps so much. Best $199 I have spent for self-help and development. I have also had a bad history with relationships in general and has helped to change my overall paradigm. So from the bottom of my heart... thanks to you both.
After the second time, I felt an honest calming feeling in my stomach
Recently, I came across the GoAskSuzie website and ordered the home-study course for betrayed partners. I listened to it twice in its entirety. After the second time, I felt an honest calming feeling in my stomach. I realized that it was not the affair itself that brought all this suffering to me but MY image that I attached to the event. For the first time in 3 months, I was able to get a good night's sleep and felt somewhat relaxed. Although my husband is still actively in the affair, I have been able to control the one thing that I could control, and that is my thoughts and forgiveness, which gets me through each day. I have learned to take it one day at a time. I do not have a doubt in my mind that with further coaching from Suzie, she will help both of us understand ourselves more, show us how to use the affair as a learning tool, keep our family together and rebuild our marriage and family for the better as God wants us to have. I have never heard of anyone who uses such inspirational, clear, truthful and meaningful words as well as Suzie Johnson....
Thank you so much for having these resources available
Thank you so much for having these resources available. Words cannot express how much I thank you for sharing your knowledge. Your advice has helped me not only to walk away from my illicit relationship but also to understand the reasons and rationalizations that kept me there. Suzie's insights have also helped me to begin to work on my marriage and realize the answer to my problems cannot be found in another relationship. I don't know what you went through personally to create this amazing company, but you have been a blessing to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Your site is doing a lot more for me to help me heal than the therapist!
Suzie, Thanks so much! Your site is amazing. I went to therapy as well and your site is doing a lot more for me to help me heal than the therapist! Thanks again!
Your advice and thoughtful direction has been invaluable
Dear Suzie, Thank you for the insightful Coaching sessions from March through today. Your advice and thoughtful direction has been invaluable. I look forward to checking in as future months pass by to relay positive progress and to receive your continued successful strategies.
We would not be where we are in our relationship without her guidance
My name is Alison and my husband had an affair for 4 months. I was totally devastated and felt my whole world was destroyed. I decided to check the internet for help and found Suzie's website. I loved the fact that just her website that was free, was so very informative. It truly was a wealth of information and answered a lot of questions that I had, and validated feelings that I was having. My husband found it also very helpful for himself. I thought what the heck, I would try one session with Suzie. Well, our phone meeting with Suzie was truly amazing. We were offered 12 week coaching plan and found out about the cost. We decided this was something that would be incredibly helpful in our relationship and that would be priceless. We decided that we wanted to be together and wanted to do whatever it took to have more of Suzie's help. We have completed the 12 weeks and our relationship is in a state that I love. I am grateful for the tools that I have learned to apply to my daily living in every aspect of my life. I have learned to love, be...
REAL Love DOES win
I am so grateful for this website!!! I just went through an emotional affair that caused me a lot of heartache, tears, and guilt. When I was finally ready to come out of denial, this site helped me so much! My therapist was not even close in helping as much as this site. I was finally "willing" to let go and that was my light bulb moment. I know I have strong will power and within a day I feel like a new person. Free from all of the angst and anxiety I felt while going through the affair. Realizing that my 16 year marriage is real love, even if it's not as exciting and "fun" (or so I thought, it really was not that fun going thru this!), we have a strong commitment, history, support, children, and longevity that far surpasses anything the affair could offer. I would encourage anyone going through an emotional affair to pore over Suzi's articles and face the reality of the situation. I had to read them several times to make it sink in. I had convinced myself that this was a "real" relationship and if we could just be together my life would...
My husband and I give Suzie credit for helping save our marriage
My husband and I have gone through some together and I've done others alone... How To Infidelity-Proof Your Marriage, Standing in the Storm, How to Break Free from the Affair, Infidelity Recovery 101. Honestly, they are all so good...we are amazed. We talk about Suzie like she's a friend or member of our family...first name basis! She has such wisdom. I find myself just laughing, shaking my head at times, amazed by her insight. Probably my favorites right now are How to Infidelity-Proof Your Marriage and How to Break Free. We are not stopping there though 🙂 As to why those both contain such poignant insights and very specific tips and 'to-dos'. I also find her compassionate approach to dealing with the Wayward partner so helpful, but she doesn't coddle. There is just so little out there to help those on that side. She respects the power of the affair in a way that helps you put it into perspective and then really grasp how to get out. There's more I could say. But my husband and I give Suzie credit for helping save our marriage.
Suzie saved me when I was completely hopeless and helpless
I recently purchased your Wayward Rehab home study and have been listening to Suzie. She has been an incredible source of help and support. I am so thankful for her. Suzie saved me when I was completely hopeless and helpless. I now feel like I can do this and there is a light at the end of this tunnel. I not only feel like I can do it, I now know how. Thank you. My purchase was smooth and the programs easy to access.
Her words reach the bottom of the heart
It seems that Suzie knows everything, and her words reach the bottom of the heart, as I was crying all 20 minutes. She is like a ray of light showing the right direction in the darkness of my own thoughts. It's very difficult not to start thinking negatively, but I will try to stick to her guidance. Thank God we have such person as Suzie who can find the words we seek for. Thanks for all your team for doing such a great job!
