Susan Hoekstra

Hi, I'm Susan! I love the water, Don’s Drive-In real cherry shakes, cross-country skiing, music, chocolate, and watching The Chosen. I'm a professional clarinetist, songwriter, author, lay counselor, advisor, mentor, speaker, and host of THE NOTICE podcast. I grew up in the streets of Detroit and as I came to knowJesus, I experienced the healing only HE can bring, encouraging my passion to help others. A big part of that passion is to encourage others to acknowledge each other through validation and affirmation. As you look through these pages, I invite you to learn more. Sign up for mentoring, listen to a podcast episode, a song, or read the book, A FIRM GRASP. Consider attending a workshop or event at Maple Ridge PLACE, our beautiful 14 acre property in Traverse City. I can't wait to experience what God can do in your life!
