Hi y’all, I’m Susan Sparks—a trial lawyer turned preacher, comedian, speaker, author, nationally syndicated columnist, and Harley-riding cowboy boot addict.
I know, I know . . . this sounds more like a personality disorder than a career path. But whatever it is, I love what I do. I get to help people regain their grit and reclaim their joy!

Otherwise, let me share with you why I do what I do.
I’ll use a motorcycle analogy:
We all know life has curves.
Things we never expect.
Things that throw us into the wind or down to the ground.
Trust me, I’ve been there. I’ve lived through a divorce, survived cancer, lost both parents, traveled solo around the world for two years and left a ten-year law practice to create a career as an ordained minister and a standup comedian. I know a bit about curves.
Here’s what I’ve learned:
Bends in the road are inevitable. But they are also where life takes flight. They are the places where we have the opportunity to face down our fears, accelerate through and become something more.
After significant gambles and spectacular falls, I’ve learned to lean into the curves. Now thousands take inspiration and hope from the laughter, sermons, and some even say wisdom 🙂 that I offer.

Hey, we’re all on the same road. Why not face the curves and accelerate out together!
– Susan
