Show Notes

If you are a listener of the Think Courageously podcast, I know you have heard me RAVE  about The Co-Co. 

The Co-Co is a collaborative co-working and co-learning community. It is a women-led  business with female-forward content, community, and design. Co-Co members are energized to join the movement to support and inspire women at all stages of life and career.

Today on the podcast, I’m talking with Suzanne Willian, a co-founder of The Co-Co. 

After graduating from Purdue University with a BS in Civil Engineering, Suzanne’s professional journey started at IBM. She spent 15 years in technology sales and marketing. Suzanne took a pause in her career,  raising her three children.  She immersed herself in the local community as a friend and volunteer. 

Suzanne re-entered the workforce in 2014, serving as a consultant to nonprofits and small businesses. She became certified in change management and is pursuing certification as a coach. In January of 2019, she and her business partners opened the Co-Co. 

Launching the Co-Co was an entrepreneurial adventure sparked with a sense of urgency... to create an empowering space for women at all stages in life and career. 

Suzanne and The Co-Co leadership team used COVID as a learning opportunity. A chanceto revisit its purpose and passion and to pivot accordingly.  The group found the power of creating space to listen, the courage to say yes, and the importance of staying connected to their vision and values.
