Self Leadership & Mindset Specialist
International Speaker – Trainer – Coach & Mentor
There’s nothing quite like showing up each day clear, energised, and fully aligned with who you are.
It’s that powerful space where confidence meets authenticity — and it shows.
Your personal brand shines effortlessly, because people can see and feel the real you.
You make decisions with ease, navigate challenges with calm, and leave others inspired by the way you lead yourself first.
That’s when your impact grows, and life feels genuinely fulfilling.
Sue Kohn-Taylor is an award-winning entrepreneur, self-leadership and resilience specialist, international speaker, and investor in forestry, cybersecurity, and energy. She is the founder of The Mental Fitness Company and SueKohnTaylor.com. With over 30 years of business experience, Sue has scaled four startups, held corporate leadership roles, and contributed to governance across diverse sectors. This journey ignited her passion for coaching self-leadership and resilience to entrepreneurs, workforces, and business leaders worldwide.
Ever feel like you’re doing all the right things — leading a team, growing a business, building a career — yet inside you’re running on empty?
Disconnected from your own clarity, energy, or sense of purpose?
It’s a common story in today’s demanding world. You push through, keep up appearances, even perform well on the outside. But over time, that disconnection chips away at your confidence, resilience, and ultimately, your personal brand — how you show up and influence others.
And it’s not just a personal challenge.
When leaders or key team members operate from this disconnected, reactive place, it filters through the entire culture. Engagement drops, communication falters, and even the best strategies struggle to land. That’s why building self-leadership and mindset strength isn’t just an individual pursuit — it’s essential for thriving, resilient teams.
I help leaders, entrepreneurs, and working professionals break free from these patterns.
As a Self-Leadership & Mindset Specialist, I empower you to reconnect — with yourself first, so you can lead others more powerfully, handle uncertainty with calm, and build a reputation rooted in authenticity and strength.
Through private coaching, team programs, and speaking engagements, I help you and your people:
✅ Develop profound self-awareness and trust in your own judgement
✅ Strengthen mental and emotional resilience
✅ Navigate challenges and change with greater clarity and composure
✅ Lead yourselves first — so leadership, collaboration, and impact follow naturally
Because when individuals and teams feel genuinely connected — to their values, their purpose, and a shared vision — everything shifts.
Energy lifts. Engagement rises. And people experience the very best of each other. That’s the ripple effect of strong self-leadership.
If you’re ready to become the kind of person — and build the kind of team — that doesn’t just manage the pressures of life and work but truly thrives through them, I’d love to explore what’s possible for you.
I think you would agree that today’s world is busy, fast paced, changeable, stressful and full of pressure and in the work that I do with 1000’s of people a year in business environments, I see more and more people giving away their power by falling into the trap of following not leading in their life because its easier, but it’s also the most disempowering place to be.
And sometimes this might even be you.
Self Leadership is about leading your life. Its understanding who you are, having clarity on what you want from your life and then you make deliberate choices and actions every day to achieve it. You “Lead Not Follow”.
You stop being the victim of people and circumstances.
Sue Kohn-Taylor, works with individuals, teams and whole organisations offering online courses, coaching, mentoring and tailored workplace training on how to Lead Not Follow – the core element being self leadership.
If you’re an individual seeking growth, connection & clarity, or a business leader looking for a team training solution, I can help. My training, coaching & courses have been designed to benefit a variety of situations and budgets. They all have one thing in common – building self leadership, resilience and mental & emotional fitness.
Remember life isn’t happening to you it’s responding to you.
So Lead Not Follow and watch how you become the positive ripple of change in the world. Because the world desperately needs more people to Lead Not Follow!
