Susan here! Today I want to raise a glass of champagne in gratitude to everyone at the Ottawa Makeover Project. 2017 has been one of the most incredible years of my adult life and I can't wait to see what the new year will bring... I came across this video today and it really spoke to me. Change really does begin with YOU caring about yourself. If you want to start your own Makeover in 2018, I highly recommend a VIP day of brainstorming with Pierrette Raymond or an honest conversation about the emotional baggage around your finances with Colleen O'Connell-Campbell. Happy New Year. May this be your best year yet. xo

A year ago my journey began with Dr. Andrea Stevens and the OMP team... While the Makeover Project is taking a break this year, I can attest to the fact that those of us who have worked with the Ottawa Makeover Project are forever changed in profound ways!

When I look in the mirror now, I see a calmer and more confident woman. While Dr. Hedyeh Javidnia Cosmetic Facial Surgery turned back the clock on my skin and both Twiss & Weber and Miv Fournier worked magic with my look, I truly look rested because Colleen O'Connell-Campbell, Pierrette Raymond, Executive Fitness Leaders, and Russ Molot rewired my mindset!

I have learned to take more risks professionally and personally AND to unapologetically carve out alone time when I need to recharge my batteries. I will be 44 in December, yet I have never felt more comfortable in my own skin because I am finally trusting my gut. I am excited for the future and ready to slay any dragons on my path.
Please stay in touch to see what happens with the OMP (and me!) in 2018. You can also contact me for massage, yoga, and wellness advice at Susan RMT. Love Susan xo

Dr. S here: Six months ago, our amazing team of business owners got together for the difficult task of choosing just ONE person as our 2016-17 Makeover Winner...and we chose Susan! She wasn't the youngest or oldest, the smallest or biggest, the poorest or richest applicant we had. We just felt she was the most dedicated, the most ready to move her life forward, with specific goals in mind, and a great can-do attitude! Over these six months, I think Susan remained almost bewildered that we had chosen her, but I think this "after" picture speaks volumes. To those of you following who know Susan, we give her back to you stronger, taller (!) and more determined to be the best she can be, knowing to listen to herself more than others, still fiercely loving and protecting her son. My wish for Susan is that she carries on with all of the lessons she's learned (and even learns how to make her hair curl like THAT!) and keeps us all posted!

To our Team: Colleen O'Connell-Campbell (RBC Dominion Securities), Denis Giacobbi and Colin Peden (and all the trainers at Executive Fitness Leaders), Pierrette Raymond (Pierrete Raymond Life Coaching and 1-800-GOT-JUNK), Dr. Hedyeh Javidnia and her team (Facial Surgery and Cosmetic Centre of Ottawa), Russ Molot (Langevin Morris Smith), Val Ianetti (Zestible), John Stanton and Leslie White (Myers Kanata Chev Buick GMC), Laura Twiss and Tonia Weber (Twiss & Weber), Fran Green (Jewelry by Fran Green), Jeremy Rosenberg (York St. Spa), Shelley True (True Dot Design), Miv Fournier (Miv Photography)...I thank you all for your involvement in this Project from the bottom of my heart. Without all of you, this project wouldn't be possible. I look forward to working with ALL of you again for our 5th year!

This is the second year that our Fashion Gurus at Twiss & Weber are providing the "reveal" outfit for our winner! What you may not know is that not only do these ladies make all their own clothing IN THE BACK OF THEIR STORE, but they also offer a wardrobe service to help you make the most of what you've already got! Get back to feeling fabulous, and check out this blog post!

Dr. S. here: I spent part of the last night of the 2016-17 Makeover time with Susan at York St. Spa (our hair and makeup team) relaxing, chatting, and having a pedicure (for Susan, part of her "prize package"). I was struck less by the outward changes in Susan than I was by the calm and confidence I heard and saw in her. I know I speak for all of us here at the Ottawa Makeover Project when I say thank you to Susan for making the most of what we had to offer, and we can't wait to watch you continue to shine brightly in the future! Come meet Susan (and our team) this morning on CTV Morning Live at 8:45am!

Thanks again to all of my fellow Partners for all that you do with me to make this Project a success, and let's get ready for another great Makeover in 2017-18!
