About Suzanne Fetting


Thank you for visiting AbsoluteConfidence.com. My name is Suzanne Fetting,
a Confidence Coach from beautiful Vancouver, B.C.

As an empowered and confident woman, my passion and vision is to assist women of all ages, shapes and sizes to discover their authentic selves, their inner strength and to love themselves more!

I get a great sense of fulfillment in helping people develop love, trust and respect for themselves, create positive change, identify their desires, and live the life they dream of. A life that is filled with confidence, love, happiness, self-respect and self-worth. All of which are of the utmost importance and essential to a woman’s overall emotional health and well-being.

My love for life and many unique experiences have allowed me to grow into a grateful, fun-loving, happy person who is confident, adventurous, goal-oriented and ambitious.

Others have described me as being an enthusiastic and high-energy leader, who is sincere, intuitive, inspirational, generous, trustworthy and great with people.

When the idea first came to me to start my own business as a Confidence Coach four years ago, I was unsure how I was actually going to do it. I just knew and believed with my entire heart and soul, that this was my purpose in life. I had a huge desire to start my business, and inspire and empower women all over the world.  I always believed that women needed to learn about authentic confidence, and I was someone who could do it. I was constantly thinking about, and envisioning what I was going to do as a Confidence Coach and how I was going to do it.

Then after suffering a devastating knee injury while on holidays in Mexico two years ago, I was forced into unexpected downtime requiring time off work, which ultimately resulted in the loss of my “dream job.” Suddenly I was going through the worst time in my life. I was single, my left leg was in an immobilizer brace, I was on crutches, unable to drive, unemployed and overwhelmed with feelings of helplessness and despair. I quickly learned who my true friends were, and they were few. I spent a while feeling incredibly sorry for myself, being cooped up in my house while I waited for what seemed like a lifetime for my reconstructive knee surgery. (In reality it was a four month wait…and then another six months of healing and recovery after the surgery. This was absolute torture for me! I am a very active person who does not watch TV or enjoy sitting inside) One day, while I was really busy sitting on my couch feeling sorry for myself, I made a conscious decision. I decided to take responsibility for my life and my happiness. I broke my own knee. I was choosing to be miserable. And I had the ability to make other decisions. I could be sad or I could get happy. I could’ve very easily chosen to continue to wallow in self-pity, but I knew that it wasn’t getting me anywhere. Instead, I chose to create positive change, learn from the experience and move forward. As a result, I chose to start working on my business as a Confidence Coach. I had accumulated a lot of information, done a lot of writing over the previous couple of years, and all of a sudden I had nothing but time to develop an exciting and unique business. As is everything, having gone through this experience was such a gift. I was given the opportunity to learn many invaluable lessons that I may not have learned otherwise, as well as being given the time to start my business. I wake up every single day so thankful to be able to do EXACTLY what I was put on this planet to do.

When I initially started researching my business idea, I spoke with as many women as I could, everywhere I travelled. I noticed two consistent responses:
1) All of the women I spoke with agreed that regardless of their age, race, appearance, or level of success, they could use some help improving their self-confidence and self-esteem.
2) I repeatedly heard people saying that this unusual business would not be successful:  “I’ve never heard of a Confidence Coach, what the heck is that?” But I always REALLY believed in my business idea and never let anyone else’s opinions or judgments deter me from achieving my goals.

My abilities stem from years of helping both women and men build their confidence. In addition to having trained with the very highly regarded Erickson College International, I have coached, advised and motivated people of all ages and backgrounds. I have an innate ability to identify and understand problems, to communicate effectively and to assist in problem solving and goal setting.

Being the daughter of amazing parents (an ambitious, entrepreneurial Mom and hardworking, happy-go-lucky Dad) has instilled in me the importance of having very strong morals, work ethics and a sense of self at a young age.

I have worked as a producer, a reporter, an event planner, a marketing and promotions supervisor, a fashion show producer, a fashion and spokes model and also owned my own business at a young age. I have been a keynote speaker at trade shows and events and I am a published writer.I have recently been selected to be on CBC’s Dragon’s Den –which will be a very exiting experience! Filming takes place in Toronto in mid-May and the episode will air in the Fall.

I am the creator of Vancouver’s F.E.M.M. Group (Female Entrepreneurs MasterMind Group) and I volunteer as a Wisdom Champion™ Mentor for youth programs with Grade 7 girls at The YWCA Vancouver and I am a Community Leader with The Minerva Foundation’s Learning to Lead™ Program.
