At 71, She's Starting Over—and Trusting God With What's Next | Suzanne LeBoeuf

What if the most meaningful chapter of your life is still ahead of you? Many people reach a certain age or stage in life and begin wondering whether they've missed their opportunity to pursue something new. But what if God isn't finished with your story? In Episode 6 of the Next Level Leadership Podcast, host Larry Williams sits down with Suzanne LeBoeuf, founder of Held and Renewed, former therapist, university instructor, and Christian faith coach, for an inspiring conversation about faith, resilience, starting over, and discovering God's purpose in a new season. Suzanne's journey has been anything but ordinary. Raised in an atheist household, she pursued a career in counseling and higher education before experiencing devastating personal challenges, including domestic violence, the loss of custody of her daughter, and homelessness. Through those difficult seasons, Suzanne eventually developed a relationship with Jesus Christ that transformed her understanding of identity, purpose, and what it means to begin again. Today, at 71 years old, she's building something new through Held and Renewed, helping Christian women navigate fear, uncertainty, major life transitions, and important decisions through faith-based coaching and practical resources. In this conversation, you'll discover: Why it's never too late to pursue a new purpose. How Suzanne transitioned from counseling and higher education into Christian coaching. What it means to rebuild your identity after losing everything familiar. How faith can provide direction during seasons of uncertainty. Why starting over doesn't mean starting from nothing. How to distinguish between fear and the wisdom to wait. Why your life experiences can become valuable resources for helping others. How Suzanne is building Held and Renewed to encourage women navigating life's transitions. We also discuss the biblical story of Moses and how God used different seasons of his life to prepare him for his greatest assignment. Whether you're approaching retirement, considering a career change, rebuilding after a difficult season, or simply wondering what God has planned for your future, this conversation is a reminder that your story isn't over.
