“ It's exactly the kind of book I've been looking for! I have no doubt that your book will help many people. ”

Amber - Early Reader

Hi, I'm Susan McIntire. It's great to see you!

My passion for writing began in childhood, along with an appreciation for exploring nature. I've turned my love for research, storytelling, and sensory experiences into a fulfilling career, becoming an expert in sensory well-being.

I honed my writing and research skills at the University of South Carolina with a prestigious journalism scholarship and my studies in the Honors College. Then, I had a successful career employing my art and design skills working for such companies as La Costa Spa Products, Oscar Mayer, and Godfather's Pizza, Inc.

As a military spouse and mother, I've traveled across the U.S., discovering the importance of sensory wellness in our daily lives. Now, I live with aloha on the beautiful island of Oahu, Hawaii, where I share my knowledge about sensory fitness. Through mindful sensory awareness, I help others feel less stressed and improve their lives.
