About Me

About Suzanne

Hi, I’m Suzanne Dickey — founder of Joy Life Coaching.

I am a trauma-informed Christian life coach, writer, and speaker, and I work with women who need a safe place to work through the hard questions they are facing. I help women slow down enough to think clearly, sort through their thoughts and emotions, identify what is true, and make wise decisions.

My faith informs how I coach, but I don’t assume everyone I coach shares my beliefs. I meet people where they are. Principles like—integrity, wisdom, humility, healthy communication, personal responsibility, and grace shape the way I work with people—in life, relationships, and difficult decisions.

Alongside my coaching practice, I support female staff at Hope Center Indy, where I provide faith-based leadership support and resilience training for women serving on the front lines of restoration work.

I want my clients to know I hold them in the highest regard, no matter where they are in their faith journey. I want them to feel seen, heard, known, and loved during every session.

I also love spending quality time with our wonderful family and friends — and of course, I have to mention our sweet golden retriever, Benny.

I’m grateful you’re here.
