I was so lucky to meet Susan through a mutual acquaintance and have had the pleasure of working with her over the last 4 months. I was seeking some life/career coaching as I had just had a pivot and had started a new career. In a safe and positive way, Susan helped me explore relationships, dynamics & past events that have been holding me back. We worked on revisiting these things, reframing how I looked at them and asking forgiveness (from myself) where necessary. Susan explained to me at the beginning that she is not a licensed therapist, but her gift and technique have helped me so much more than months of normal talk therapy. I highly recommend working with Susan! You will see even from your initial conversation that she (and what she does) is different!!

Susan Palace is a truly compassionate and empowering health coach. Her approach isn’t about quick fixes or rigid rules—it’s about building a better, more positive relationship with your body and food. What makes Susan stand out is how deeply she understands the challenges people face because she’s been through her own journey. That empathy comes through in everything she does. She takes the time to really understand your individual habits, lifestyle, and goals, and then works alongside you—not above you—to guide lasting, meaningful change. Her energy is always uplifting, her knowledge is extensive (from nutrition and fitness to wellness products), and she creates a supportive environment where progress feels possible, not pressured. If you’re looking for someone who will truly meet you where you are and help you get where you want to go—with grace, insight, and kindness—Susan is the one. I can’t recommend her enough.

We’ve been working with Susan Palace and let me just say: if you’ve ever thought a health coach might nag you into giving up everything you love, think again. Susan is the opposite. She’s friendly, approachable, and she actually listens before giving advice—which in the health world, is refreshing. ... Read more
We’ve been working with Susan Palace and let me just say: if you’ve ever thought a health coach might nag you into giving up everything you love, think again. Susan is the opposite. She’s friendly, approachable, and she actually listens before giving advice – which in the health world, is refreshing. She combines professionalism with real-world know-how, so whether it’s nutrition guidance, better routines, or simply figuring out how to stay consistent, she always has practical, smart suggestions. What we like most is that Susan makes health changes feel achievable. Our work with her is ongoing, and I can honestly say we’re not only healthier but also more confident about sustaining progress. Susan brings knowledge, caring and a little humor to every conversation. If you want a health coach who’s more partner than drill sergeant, I highly recommend Susan Palace.

After years and years of yo-yo dieting, I am happy to say that I have finally found a solution, and it comes in the form of powerhouse of a woman named Susan Fisher Palace. With Susan’s guidance and patience, I have accomplished something I couldn’t with Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, Nutrisystem, the HCG diet, Atkins, and every nationally known—and some rather unknown—weight loss programs. ...

After years and years of yo-yo dieting, I am happy to say that I have finally found a solution, and it comes in the form of powerhouse of a woman named Susan Fisher Palace. With Susan’s guidance and patience, I have accomplished something I couldn’t with Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, Nutrisystem, the HCG diet, Atkins, and every nationally known – and some rather unknown – weight loss programs. At long last, I am at peace with food! When I first met Susan, I was skeptical. I shared with her my concerns about starting another diet only to arrive at my goal and put all the weight back on and then some. It was at our first meeting that I started to see why Susan is so successful. Susan listened. She didn’t tell me what I needed to do; she simply listened and processed what I was saying. And then she took what I said and brought some clarity to the scope of my food hurdles that had kept me unsuccessful all the years I had tried. When asked about her moment of clarity for her own personal situation, Susan revealed that she found that the internal struggles she suffered from were exhausting. She understood that food occupies the thoughts of those of us that are struggling and she understood how time consuming that lifestyle is for me. Finally, she shared the process that put things back into balance for her. I knew I wasn’t ready to jump in yet, so we met again. In the second meeting, we talked about nutrition and the idea that it was much healthier to keep a level balance of food and nutrients in your body during the day rather than the starve/overeat approach that many chronic dieters take. We spoke of my personal situation with a carbohydrate addiction and how to change my thinking. Susan was and continues to be so patient with me. She delights in my successes and is an unwavering source of support for me. To anyone who is sick of dieting, Susan provides the final solution to your ongoing struggle. The key is Susan herself. It’s the care and concern she has for her clients that makes the difference. Susan gives you the foundation for success, and she is with you every step of the way. I wholeheartedly recommend Susan to anyone who is looking to lead a healthier lifestyle! My husband is down 30 pounds, and I am down 45 pounds and we’ve never felt better!
