Our conversation takes us through the challenging therapy sessions Susan experienced following her father's demise. There's honesty in her voice as she recounts feeling misunderstood by her therapist and finding solace in connecting with fellow patients. It's an in-depth look at her internal struggles and the significant role her faith played in finding peace. We delve into the complexities of her father's murder case, her process of forgiving her father’s killer and the healing power of penning down her thoughts in a book.
