My Story

As a mom of 2 toddlers, finding the time to relax is hard to come by, but attending the Permission to Pause workshop provided just what I needed to decompress. 

Being able to socialize amongst likeminded women in a tranquil environment while winding down through craft and yoga, allowed me to carve out a part of my busy day just for me, and I was able to leave with a clear mind and renewed sense of calm.

Susan has created an incredible space where young girls are welcomed, supported, heard, and encouraged to grow. My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed each and every class she's attended, and it's evident how much love and expertise Susan pours into every experience. These classes offer a fun and safe environment that promotes creativity, self expression, self awareness, and confidence. Teaching young minds in such a positive and nurturing way is incredibly important, and I truly wish every child had the opportunity to participate in programs like this - ones that will benefit them now and continue to serve them well into the future. Thank you, Susan for bringing these experiences into their lives! 

Mindful Me with Susan Garcia was exactly what my Girl Scout troop needed. I first met Susan at a PTA meeting, and her passion for mindfulness immediately stood out—I knew I wanted to bring her into one of our meetings.

She connected with the girls so naturally, meeting them right where they are and making each one feel seen, valued, and included. Her message is such an important one for young girls, and she serves as an incredible role model for self-love and self-care.

We don’t give ourselves permission to pause...and last night reminded me how much we need to.

This workshop was exactly what my soul needed - a little expression, a little restoration, and a whole lot of peace. 

It was truly lovely.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Susan for both Girl Scout workshops and at my job, and she is truly wonderful. She creates such a warm and welcoming environment for the girls, making everyone feel comfortable right away. I love how she thoughtfully incorporates a book into each workshop, along with elements of yoga, which keeps the experience both meaningful and fun. She has a natural ability to capture the girls’ attention and keep them engaged throughout. The craft is always a hit and such a great added bonus to an already amazing experience.

I truly love collaborating with Susan Garcia of Mindful Me. Her enthusiasm, passion, and warmth shine through in everything she does, while her professionalism remains consistently evident. Susan has a beautiful way of making her participants feel safe, welcomed, and truly seen, and partnering with her leaves you feeling the same. I deeply respect and am continually inspired by her work ethic, integrity, resilience, and grit.
