Speaker: Suzy Easterling-Wood

Website: fromthreetoone.com

Suzy Easterling-Wood has resided in the New London area for the last 25+ years.

In this phase of her life and career Suzy is drawing on a series of adverse events that have shaped and transformed her. A life coach and speaker determined to offer hope to those in need, she believes we are meant to survive, even thrive, through our stories. And believes that we all have the opportunity to emerge on the other side, better than we were before. Transformed. At her core, she believes that we all want to be better versions of ourselves to share with the world, we sometimes just don’t know how to get there.

This event is generously being sponsored by Sunapee Heritage Alliance (which owns and operates The Livery), Artisans of New London and Sunapee Yoga Company. Thank you!

Cashmere shawls. Irreverent humor (we love hearing the laughter at some of the sections at Artisans) . Color. So. Much. Color.

We have had Pop-Up Shops use our space for a day or weekend as well. Need a spot to host a shower, birthday, or retirement party? How about an art show, or art class? We could even be the place to hold a book group or knitting circle. With 4 different spaces to rent there is a space to fit your needs.
