Part 1: So WTF is it?

We hear the words unconditional love all the time... but what does unconditional love look like in real life? No but seriously...

In Part 1 of this series, Suzanne breaks down what a living version of unconditional love might be and draws from psychology, spiritual teachings, and her own experience, as she looks at the gap between the ideal of unconditional love and the reality of trying to live it.

This isn't about becoming a doormat. It isn't about pretending you don't have boundaries. And it definitely isn't about forcing yourself to like everyone.

It's a conversation about what unconditional love might actually be—and what it isn't.

If you've ever found yourself wondering why loving people can feel so difficult, this series is for you.

The Illusion of Control: Part 3 – Give it Up, Babe

In Part 3 of The Illusion of Control, Suzanne explores one of the hardest things for us humans to do: live with uncertainty. Why does waiting feel so uncomfortable? Why do we mistake certainty for safety? And why do we spend so much of our lives trying to predict, prepare for, and outthink the future?

Drawing from psychology, spirituality, and her own life, Suzanne explores what happens when we stop demanding answers before allowing ourselves to have peace. Because maybe the goal isn't to know what's coming next. Maybe it's learning to trust ourselves enough to meet it when it arrives.

Part 2: The Control You Didn't Know You Had

In Part 2 of The Illusion of Control, Suzanne explores the subtle ways we try to control life without even realizing we're doing it. From seeking validation and needing people to see us a certain way, to quietly outsourcing our identity, worth, and peace to the people around us, she'll unpack how these hidden patterns can keep us stuck.

Through the lenses of psychology, spirituality, and real life, Suzanne explores what it means to meet people where they are, stop negotiating with reality, and begin finding a steadier sense of self from within. Because the more we're sourced from ourselves, the less we need the world to become different before we can be at peace.

​"If I could just explain it one more time. Or differently. Or louder. Or with a PowerPoint presentation...​ have one more conversation, or somehow convince them to see what I see... then I could finally relax."

​Sound familiar? How'd that work out?​ 

In the first installment of The Illusion of Control: Now You See It. Now You Don't, Suzanne explores the illusion of control through one of its most common expressions: trying to change the people around us. 

​She shares what she's learned about the illusion of control, why we mistake it for safety, and why letting go isn't giving up​, it's getting your life back.

If there’s one thing we've learned about forging our own path, it’s this: nobody can tell you what your path is.

Not your parents. Not your friends. Not society. Not your favorite spiritual teacher. Not even that random person on the internet with a suspicious amount of confidence.

In Part 3 of this series, Suzanne explores one of the most important and challenging aspects of creating a life that feels like your own: getting to know yourself. Not the version of you shaped by expectations, roles, fears, or old conditioning, but the real you underneath all of that.

She shares why self-discovery is less about becoming someone new and more about remembering who you've been all along, why reclaiming your life requires learning to trust your own inner knowing, and several practical ways to begin uncovering what is true for you.

Because when it comes to your path, nobody gets a vote quite like you do.

Along the way, she shares memorable quotes and insights from some of the leading voices on self-discovery, individuality, and finding your own way in the world.

It's a series. About putting away all other maps and drawing your own.

Suzanne gets a little more personal as she explores what she's learned from spending a lifetime trying to follow her own path. From unexpected detours and questionable decisions to surprising discoveries and hard-won wisdom, she reflects on the messy, nonlinear process of becoming yourself.

Because sometimes following your heart feels like a miracle. And sometimes it feels like a complete shitshow. Most of the time, it's both.

This series is a total free flow and stream of consciousness where Suzanne just turned on the mic and started talking. A special level of “let’s see what happens”

Part 3

In the final installment of this 3-part series, Suzanne continues her conversation with Rev. Aimee Daniels , Spiritual Director of Cityside Center for Spiritual Living in Chicago.

Together, they explore New Thought spirituality, practical spiritual living, healing generational trauma, and what it means to bring more compassion, consciousness, and kindness into a world that often feels overwhelmed, divided, and very, very online.

Rev. Aimee shares the mission behind her ministry and her passion for helping people become more loving, awake, and spiritually grounded in everyday life — not separate from humanity, but right in the middle of it. The conversation also touches on community, collective healing, and the idea that peace in the world may actually begin with how we treat ourselves and each other moment by moment.

The episode closes with a beautiful prayer for the planet from Rev. Aimee

Rev. Aimee shares practical tools for working with emotions and becoming more aware of the thoughts that shape our experience, especially during painful or reactive moments. She also opens up about a personal experience with grief and what spiritual practice can look like when life gets real.

In Part 1 of this special three-part series, Suzanne chats with Rev. Aimee Daniels, Spiritual Director of Cityside Center for Spiritual Living (CSL) in Chicago, longtime New Thought minister, teacher, and leadership coach.

Rev. Aimee received her Masters of Consciousness Studies from Holmes Institute, became a CSL Practitioner, and studied extensively at the Chopra Center. Prior to becoming Spiritual Director at Cityside, she served as Assistant Minister at both Cityside and Bodhi Spiritual Centers in Chicago, and also founded a Focus Ministry called Credo to help bring New Thought teachings into everyday life. Outside of ministry, she works with CEOs and senior leaders to help them become more conscious and aligned.

In this first conversation, Aimee shares how she first found her spiritual path, what drew her toward ministry, and the deeply personal experiences that profoundly shaped her understanding of love, connection, and the unseen dimensions of existence. And, as an added bonus, we'll hear a clip from one of her Sunday Talks at Cityside. Cool!
