Highlights
- 00:02:14: The surreal ‘in-between’ of grieving while life continues

She opens up about the role this podcast plays as a personal legacy, a place where her children will one day hear the parts of her that exist beyond motherhood, and why honesty, not polish, matters right now. - 00:12:38: Applying years of inner work when it matters most
Suzy reflects on the principles she’s taught for over a decade, how they remain true even now, and why emotional waves can’t and shouldn’t be rushed, even as she longs to feel good again.
Quotes
- “There’s a part of me that wants to run past the pain, but I can’t and I shouldn’t. This is part of the process.”
- “The tools I’ve taught for twelve years don’t erase the grief, but they’re what will carry me through it.”
- “This podcast has become a living archive of who I am, beyond being a mum, a coach, or a business owner it’s the version of me my kids will one day hear.”
Notes On Grief
This week I’m returning to the mic after losing my niece, Tahlia June. I’m sharing honestly about grief, the collision of identities we hold during loss, and what it feels like to keep moving when nothing feels normal.
I talk about the last moment I shared with her, why documenting my life matters more than ever, and how the tools I’ve taught for twelve years support me in the moments I’d give anything to avoid.
If you’re navigating loss this episode will hold you, ground you, and remind you that you’re not alone.
