Room by Room
is a spiritual guidance process designed for women that uses your most intimate physical space — your home — to unearth your deepest spiritual needs.
The rooms in your home have something to tell you about what your soul needs. Together, you and I will sit together, either virtually or in person, in a room, asking some simple questions like: What are three things I love about this room? As we move through the questions, you may find some small change you’d like to make.
Listening
As you make some small shifts in your space, something starts to shift in you. I call this interior redesign — not in the room, but inside of you.
Shifting
This interior redesign sinks into your body, so you fully connect with your own inner wisdom. Healing happens here. So does laughter. So do tears. And somewhere in the letting go and fully claiming who you are, you finally come home.
This is the journey of Room by Room —coming home to yourself, room by room.
Embodying
What people are experiencing . . .
“What makes this experience so unique is how gently it uncovers both the beauty and the things we don’t always realize we’re holding onto—and creates space for reflection, prayer, and real healing.”
A few more reflections…
“I felt like I was drowning in a sea of chaos in my own home until Susan came and sat with me, bringing a gift I never imagined possible.”
“Room by Room has been one of the most meaningful and impactful experiences I’ve ever had—and at the heart of it is Susan. It is, in many ways, an extension of who she is. It reflects her insight, her discernment, her compassion, and the spiritual gifts she has been given.
“That one change in my room made all the difference! I just took an entire morning for self-care. Just for me. I never do that! I always feel I should be taking care of someone else. It works. I had no idea. Thank you.”
“It’s not just a process—it’s something Susan carries and brings to life in a very personal and meaningful way.”
“I feel more so much more settled! THANK YOU!”
“Little by little, “Room by Room,” through quiet prayer, meditation, and reflection, the clutter cleared, and I finally had space to breathe. That was over 6 months ago, and it has since become a lifestyle practice.”
“Treating myself like a precious object will make me strong.”
Julia Cameron, The Artist’s Way
How would you feel . . .
~ If you could stop giving the best of you away
~ If your burn out is healed, and you are alive again
~ If you finally culled stuff from your life as you do from a closet full of clothes that no longer fit
~ If you quit worrying about being selfish and not giving . . . enough
~ If you actually stepped away from some commitments because they’re exhausting you
~ If you finally stopped obsessing over what someone else might think
~ If you walked by the mirror and loved the person looking back at you, instead of judging every little thing about them
~ If you began to claim the unique and wonderful gifts God gave you the day you were born. This gifts that make you YOU!
~ If you experienced joy, not tied to an event, and peace not due to somebody else
~ If you said “NO!” and let the chips fall — and were good with it
~ If let yourself stop striving because you know already that working harder is not working for you
~ If you finally got to see the “more” that is deep inside of you, the beauty that you know is there, hidden
~ If your soul was led by the still waters and restored
~ And you finally came home to yourself
How would you feel?
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Room by Room is my first program to help you grow spiritually. Together we work through a journal. The journal holds a series of questions to ask in each room of your home — and the same questions, asked in different rooms, bring up different answers. As we move deeper into the questions, whatever room you're in, some things begins to surface.
We listen for what's rising. We find the grace, the healing, and new healthy responses so that you can move on.
It clears a path and creates one, all at the same time. It will take you further into your spiritual journey than most tools I've encountered — and it does so gently. Grace upon grace.

I know what it is to empty myself — serving hurting churches, being a single mom, pouring out everything, giving more than I had to give. I also know how to find my way home, to renew my soul, to finally listen to that wise woman deep within me.
It's been a journey to get here. Before Slow Waters, I spent over twenty years walking alongside people as their pastor. I've held space for healing for hundreds of women. I know how to sit in dark places and hold the light of Christ for anyone who needs it.
I can show you the way. Room by Room is everything I know about finding your way home to yourself, and finally hearing your inner wisdom.
-
People will tell you I'm the best listener they know. I hold space for you to be you — all of you. I'll see things in you that you cannot see in yourself. I believe in you, and I will be your biggest cheerleader!
Working with me is healing. There's room for silence, but there’s also room to say the thing you've never said out loud to anyone.
I'll walk with you, and even when it gets tough. I'll be right there.

Path 2: The 6 Week Deep Dive
My promise to you: If you fully show up for 3 rooms — completing the journal work, sitting with it, letting it work on you — and this process genuinely hasn't helped you, I will refund the full cost of the program. Just reach out within 7 days of completing the third room to request it. The journal is yours to keep, always — a gift for having tried.
I want you to feel the freedom to say yes to this more immersive path. I've watched what it does for the women who walk all the way through it.
Path 1 and Path 3
Because of how these paths are structured, they're non-refundable. Life happens, though — if you need to reschedule, we always can. But once you commit, you're diving in. (And that's exactly where the transformation begins.)

You can reach me anytime via my contact page or email me at Susan@slowwaters.org. I’m here to help you on your path.

This isn't a race, and there's no falling behind. Room by Room follows the pace of your own life — some rooms open quickly, others take longer to sit with. The hardest part is just getting started. But if something is tugging at you to begin, then listen to it! Follow where this nudge is leading you, and don’t make excuses that you’ll just wait for a better time. (That one’s usually my go to excuse! :)
-
The sessions teach you how to listen deeply to what your soul needs to tell you. You'll leave with a Journal full of your own reflections, a clearer sense of what "home" is for you, and a new rhythm of noticing that continues long after you've completed the work.
-
We'll follow the order that makes sense for your home and your life — Some want to start with something easy to put their toe in the water and get a sense of how Room by Room flows. Others find it meaningful to dive right in and begin with the room that feels most avoided. That's often where some of our the real work is waiting.
-
That's not unusual, and it's welcome here. This isn't making a change in a room for organizing's sake — it's soul work, and often a room holds more than just our things. I hold space for whatever surfaces, gently and without any judgment. You can be fully you, and we’ll go to the point that feels right for you.
-
No. I'm a pastor, not a therapist, and Room by Room is a contemplative practice, not clinical treatment. If something surfaces that would be better held by a therapist or other professional, I'll gently name that and support you in finding the right kind of care.
-
Just you, your home, and a willingness to be open to wherever this path leads us. If you have a prayer practice, begin to pray about this new journey. I fully trust that you will be guided by the Spirit throughout Room by Room. And I will be listening as well
