Many times we see ourselves as broken, bent, and imperfect.
In this episode, we delve deep into Susan’s experience with this topic. She does a beautiful reflection about her journey with brokenness and perfection using an allegory of a fractal. They also go through their experience towards writing a book, physical and mental health, and how that was determinant for their future. For Susan, there are four key components about a fractal, they are: crazy, cracked, warm, and deep. Knowing each part is a self-discovery journey. Every experience defines us as human beings, we just have to learn how to navigate and make peace with the hard ones.
Susan opens her heart once more in this episode, be sure to tune in and listen to her experience.
