Behind the Scenes
Hi! I’m Sue Helzerman. There are four things you need to know about me. I have a passion for my family, dog rescue, farming, and wellness. You will find resources for all of these things here. I look forward to supporting you in your life/wellness/animal/family goals!
Passion 1: Family
My husband, Jeff, is my rock. He’s a Firefighter, Lieutenant, and Paramedic. We have 2 children and 2 grandbabies! Oh, and we can’t forget our 5 dogs and 4 donkeys.
Passion 2: Dog Rescue
I have always had a soft spot for dogs. The ones who need me seem to find me. We started fostering in October 2022 with Atlanta Boxer Rescue and we had 22 dogs come through our home that first year. Rescue saves lives. If you’re interested in getting involved with animal rescue, contact me and we can chat more.
Passion 3: Farming
I grew up in a subdivision with parents who had a large garden and raised golden retriever puppies. My parents moved us to a 5-acre plot of land to reduce the everyday stress. It did that and more. We started raising animals like goats, ducks, turkeys, and eventually a calf or two. Then, just like that, my parents were farmers. Now they run a beef operation in upstate NY.
Naturally, I too developed a love for farming. I’m definitely more of a farmer's daughter with a lot to learn. Caring for the animals and the land is a huge responsibility. One that deserves more respect than it currently receives.
Passion 4: Wellness
An invite to an oil class started a wellness journey I didn't know I wanted. A physical intolerance for medication side effects caused me to take a look at natural options. I was shocked and thrilled to find that essential oils helped. They were fast-acting, didn’t require me to leave my home, were cost-effective, and made me feel like I had expanded my wellness toolkit exponentially.
If you don’t make time for your wellness, you will be forced to make time for your illness.

Modern + Holistic
Some may assume that I am “anti-doctor” or “anti-modern medicine” simply because I’m in the natural health space. This could not be further from the truth. When we abandon any resource (natural or modern), all we are doing is limiting our wellness potential.
Now when we have any ailment in our home, my approach is to ask, “Is there an oil for this?” If that doesn’t work, then we will lean on the expertise of modern medicine. However, we have reduced the number of doctor visits our family has needed because we have these extra at-home tools that we can turn to first. That’s the gift I want every family to have.
