Academic, Life Skills and Social Support Coach
My son has struggled with ADD since elementary school. He has the potential and drive, but was disorganized and missed small assignments. In high school he was able to get by with really good grades because he learned the material and did well on tests. We worried about the day to day routine in college. Our physician suggested we hire Susan Radio, owner of Bridging S.U.C.C.E.S. to assist him in not only organizational skills, but also in advocating for himself based on his learning needs with the special support services his college provided. This was the first time I could relax and just be his mom. Susan’s services took me out of the equation which led to a better relationship with my son. My son also really connected with her. He is a sophomore in college now and we have seen so much growth in him. I highly recommend hiring Susan.

Susan has always helped me in academia. Her role became much more pronounced when I started college. I was struggling with school and she helped me learn to navigate the difficulties of college (both in undergrad and graduate school), pursue my passions and advocate for what I needed. Susan assisted me when I was struggling the most.
