Susie Schaeffer

Known as The Book Doula for “cause publishing,” Susie Schaefer believes that books are the gateway to creating a movement. Her love of books goes far beyond the feel of a fabric cover or the smell of a library. Whether writing a book helps an author heal past trauma or raise awareness for social change, Susie empowers storytellers to be part of the global conversation and create a ripple effect for humanity. Working with executives, coaches, consultants, entrepreneurs, and business owners brings her tremendous joy, particularly when an author shares their own personal story and how it connects to their mission, message, and community.

For Mangus Media Ghostwriting Group, as an official collaborator, Susie comes to the table with an array of superpowers: her unique combination of business acumen, street smarts, and intuitive gifts to help people see what’s truly possible with no limitations. Her corporate experience working with non-profits, teaching and training in human resources and as a marketing expert, and a stint in radio broadcasting and commercial acting allows Susie to skillfully guide authors through the independent publishing process to finish that dream book, launch a speaking career, or build a business by publishing a book that gets results and gives back.

Susie’s understanding of social impact, through the integration of cause-based books enables her to offer a unique foundation for authors by building community, creating connections, and serving as a catalyst for change. When not reading, publishing books, or writing award-winning screenplays, Susie can be found practicing her downward dog (yoga), meditating on the beach, or planning her next travel adventure.
