 Have you ever felt like you're just following a script written by someone else? Do you struggle to speak your truth for fear of rocking the boat? In this empowering episode of Infinite Life, Infinite Wisdom, host Susan Grau takes a deep dive into personal empowerment. She shares her own journey of breaking free from the societal and familial "scripts" that taught her to be quiet, nice, and self-sacrificing.

She offers profound insights on mending disempowering behaviors, setting boundaries, and understanding that true change is an inside job. This is a must-listen for anyone ready to silence their inner critic, put down the "beating stick," and courageously create a life journey that is authentically and powerfully their own.
