Challenging Fear with Sue Downes

  • Summary

  • Today’s guest describes herself as fearless, determined, driven, and Passionate.

    Having spent her career challenging the normal and encouraging others to “think differently”, Sue Downes is the Co-Founder and CEO of MyEyeDr.—one of the nation’s largest groups of full scope and full service optometric practices.

    Founded in 2001 as a single office focused on bringing better selection, service, and clarity to patients in the vision space, MyEyeDr. combines the science of optometry with the art of helping patients understand product selection, fashion, and vision insurance in a novel way. Now some 23 years later, Sue has led the organization to near 900 locations across the country.

    In this episode hear how the youngest of 6 children challenged tradition, how she took an administrative job in a unknown field and looked for opportunities to learn, and how she used life experience to create a concept. Learn how adversity can remove the fear that inhibits success, and how compassion and truly caring for others can fuel an idea. You’ll hear how she questioned what was accepted and acceptable, how she asked difficult questions, and much, much more.
