SUSÁN HOEMKE
Susán Hoemke knows firsthand what it’s like to have a loved one who is struggling with Substance Use Disorder/addiction. A wife and mother of four, her life took an unexpected turn in the form of her son Hayden’s addiction and other subsequent family tragedies that taught her—the hard way—the challenges of living with this disease. Now, she hopes to not only bring awareness and understanding to Substance Use Disorder but also to offer hope and healing after loss. Her research, experience attending rehab meetings, time spent living with an addicted loved one and losing them to overdose enables her to speak on this subject from a deeply personal perspective.
Today, Susán is an author, public speaker, Certified Life Coach (C.L.C.), owner at You Abound, creator of IMAP Life program used by ISD’s, works with Collin County Special Courts, Co-director of Time Wise Truancy Prevention program, board president of Engage Collin County, and is the owner of a product development company. She lives in McKinney, Texas, with her husband, Carl, and youngest daughter, Olivia, while her other two adult children, Landon and Miranda, live in Austin.

"The teachers enjoyed the IMAP concept during Red Ribbon Week. It was so well received that I’d like to spread it out throughout the coming year, so they can continue to hear the info all year long."
