Sue Scarborough

A survivor of multiple abusive and toxic relationships and encounters that pierced her soul at every level, Sue Scarborough shares her extraordinary and courageous story that begins with the initial hopelessness and fear that gripped her throughout her childhood and teen years, spent in the Green Swamp of Central Florida. The painfully shy teen briefly went mute as a high school freshman due to her father’s explosive brutality. She was wracked with guilt, shame, and always felt she was never enough. Worse, she lived in fear of Hell. Her love of school due to her encouraging math teacher gave her a reason to keep going along with her love of her animals, who she considered family.

A major turning point is ushered into her life by her Near Death Experience (NDE), followed by: a vision in a dream; a family tragedy; the unexpected way her miracle list was fulfilled; and the stories of spiritual teachers who became a part of her life, including a psychic, a medium, natal astrologers, and a pranic healer. Her experiences reveal dimensions that are joyful, healing, and aided her in putting life’s pieces together like completing a puzzle. 

Born in Winter Haven, Florida, in 1954, Scarborough received her bachelor’s of science degree in education from the University of Georgia in 1980 and her master’s degree in counseling from Webster University in 2001. She spent twenty-five years in education as a teacher; a principal of a school for teen parents and their children; a community liai­son for adult education; and a decade as a one of the largest school districts in Florida as a grant writer. Until she became a teacher, Scarborough rarely made eye contact with anyone. Teaching gave her the self-confidence to hold her head up and provided a sense of purpose. Before the love of her life suffered a debilitating stroke, she was prompted to become a hospice volunteer. After his stroke, she became a stroke liaison and his full-time caregiver. In the wake of her husband’s death, she chose Black Mountain, outside of Asheville, North Carolina, as a possible forever home. She suffered through the terrifying experience wrought by Hurricane Helene. Her soul feels called by the mountains, and she has learned to listen to that calling.
