What does it look like when a little girl from the hills of West Virginia who couldn’t stand to see her grandmother step on an ant grows up to defend the most vulnerable among us? It looks exactly like Sue Chess — 24-year CEO of CareNet of the Treasure Coast.

In this deeply moving episode, Georgette sits down with Sue to talk about the life-saving work happening right here on Florida’s Treasure Coast — and the miracle stories that keep Sue showing up every single day. From an unlikely mobile unit that arrived when only ONE was left, to a nursing student who chose life and now works at Cleveland Clinic, to the son who considered abortion and whose daughter just turned 25 — this conversation will stir your heart.

In This Episode You’ll Hear:

• Sue’s origin story: a sense of justice rooted in childhood, nursing training in 1975, and a pro-life debate that changed the trajectory of her life
• How a personal family crisis — her son and his girlfriend facing an unplanned pregnancy at 17 — led Sue to eventually lead CareNet for 24 years
• The full scope of CareNet’s ministry: pregnancy counseling, ultrasound, STI testing, parenting classes, a baby boutique, student outreach, fatherhood initiative, and abortion recovery healing
• The miracle story of CareNet’s new Mobile Unit — equipped with ultrasound and a QR code, serving Martin and St. Lucie Counties
• Why seeing the baby on ultrasound within 24 hours can be the most life-changing moment for a woman in crisis
• The truth about the abortion pill: dangers, trauma, and the abortion pill reversal that has already saved 8,000 babies nationwide
• How the Fatherhood Initiative increased life-saving outcomes by 61%
• Sue’s life motto: “Just do the next right thing”
• The peacekeeper vs. peacemaker distinction — and why Jesus was a peacemaker
• Sue’s beautiful tribute to her mother, and the devotional she’s writing from her mom’s “Sips of Living Water” Facebook posts
• Her favorite Bible: the WallBuilders Bible, weaving America’s founding history with Scripture
• The woman she’d love to have coffee with: Priscilla Shirer

Sue’s Closing Word to Anyone in Crisis:

“Don’t try to take care of the whole thing today. Just do the next right thing. Make a call. Make an appointment. Don’t make an uninformed, rapid choice before you have looked at all your options.”
