Navigating a ferociously challenging upbringing while bravely moving forward as an adult to face ingrained, outdated, and patriarchal programming head-on, Susan now shares a unique perspective in viewing life challenges as occasions for transformation.
Through her book, Toxic Family: Transforming Childhood Trauma into Adult Freedom, Susan turns the standard paradigm on its head courageously leading others through her own journey of abuse, addiction, and surviving narcissism all while creating a distinctly empowering personal and professional life.
Susan's devotion to helping clients come to an authentic relationship with Self made for an enriching conversation in this episode. If you're feeling stuck in your trauma or you simply want a better sense of how to connect with your true nature, I'm sure you'll love our talk as much as I did.
