Susan Omilian, is a name you will soon never forget. She is an author, motivational speaker, attorney, and nationally recognized expert that has worked to end violence against women for the last forty years. .
In the 1970s, she founded a rape crisis center and, in the early 1980s, represented battered women in divorce proceedings. She also litigated sex discrimination cases, including helping to articulate the legal concept that made sexual harassment illegal in the 1990s. AND THEN…

A phone call came in the middle of the night that Susan’s nineteen-year-old niece Maggie had been shot and killed by her ex-boyfriend on a college campus in Michigan. The shock and horror of another senseless act of violence, but this time Maggie – dear Maggie -- was the victim.

Suddenly, Susan’s work as an attorney and advocate for women’s rights became more personal and immediate. Vowing to help women who survive abuse as Maggie could not, today twenty years later, Susan’s award-winning work has been described as “life-changing” and as “a component for women recovering from abuse that has been virtually overlooked.” On her own healing journey after the senseless death of her niece, Susan found the work she was born to do and it comes together here in the THRIVER ZONE — a healing place for women who want to reclaim their lives after abuse.
