Sue A. Webley
Minister. Entrepreneur. Author. Conversation starter.
I’m Sue, a Brooklyn native with Jamaican roots who believes in honest conversations, faith that makes room for our whole selves, and the possibility of beginning again.
Faith. Identity. Joy.
The life still being written.
Meet Sue / Brooklyn native. Still becoming.
Minister, entrepreneur, author, and a woman with questions of her own.
I’ve spent more than 20 years asking questions and creating platforms for people to tell their stories. Today, that work lives in media, affirming ministry, and Kara Solutions.
I bring my lived experience, curiosity, and Brooklyn directness into the room. I believe people deserve to be heard, to belong, and to have enough space to actually live.
Get to know meMore than getting through
What brings me joy? What deserves my energy? What comes after survival?
The story behind those questions
Forthcoming book · Winter 2027
A Journey to the Other Side
A devotional and journaling journey about making room for life beyond survival.
More than ten years ago, I began Encouragement in 30 Seconds or Less to encourage myself after deep church hurt and the loss of key friendships. This book grows from those early words and the questions I carry today about faith, belonging, care, and joy.
Through personal reflections, wisdom from religious traditions and Black and brown thinkers, and written or audio journaling, I invite you to listen to your own life. Bring faith, doubt, or no faith at all. Prayers and nonreligious closing reflections offer different ways to participate.

Honest conversations.
Room for joy.
Stories still unfolding.
I sit down with people to explore purpose, healing, identity, leadership, and becoming. I’m interested in the stories behind the accomplishments and the questions we don’t always ask.

Rebuilding after loss, navigating a career change, and taking the next step without needing the whole plan.
Black queer faith, radical inclusion, and communities where people can show up without hiding pieces of themselves.
What years of listening to other people have taught me about visibility, authenticity, and claiming room for my own story.
Making technology more approachable and helping businesses, ministries, and communities participate more fully online.
Leadership, neurodivergence, boundaries, and what happens when the person everyone depends on needs room, too.
Ministry & entrepreneurship
Through Kara Solutions, I help businesses, nonprofits, faith communities, and creators clarify their message and strengthen their digital presence. Our work includes strategy, websites, content, podcast production, and livestream production, with attention to the people behind the platforms.
Explore Kara SolutionsRadical inclusion is central to my faith and practice. I serve as Associate Pastor at Rivers of Living Water Ministries, UCC, and National Minister of Youth and Young Adult Ministries for The Fellowship of Affirming Ministries.
