Through her journey of healing from PTSD, Susan shares the pivotal moments that led her to seek professional help.

Writing, particularly the experience of authoring a book at 50, provided a safe space for Susan to process her trauma and inspire others. The episode concludes with a powerful discussion on the importance of setting boundaries in toxic relationships and creating a safe space for radical honesty. Susan’s story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the transformative power of sharing one’s journey to inspire hope and healing in others.
