Have you ever felt guilty about taking the easy route, as if there's some hidden virtue in making life harder for yourself? That's exactly what I explore in this candid, perspective-shifting episode.

The revelation came during a FaceTime call with my friend Elizabeth. Feeling sheepish about my hair extensions, I made a self-deprecating comment. Her response? "Susie, there's no award in heaven for just living with your natural hair." This simple statement unlocked a profound truth that extends far beyond hairstyling choices.

We've been conditioned to believe that suffering unnecessarily somehow makes us more worthy or virtuous. We pride ourselves on never asking for help, being instantly available, hiding our needs, tolerating bad jobs, and shrinking ourselves to keep peace. But here's the liberating truth: there's no cosmic scorekeeper tallying your suffering. No medal awaits those who denied themselves comfort, support, or authenticity.
