ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Susan Snow is an author, speaker, and coach, and the daughter of fallen LAPD detective Thomas C. Williams. At just 17 years old, her life changed forever when her father was ambushed and killed on Halloween night in 1985.
Instead of allowing trauma to define her future, she chose a path of healing, resilience, and ultimate forgiveness. Through her work, Susan now helps others navigate grief, trauma, and loss with courage and hope.
In this raw and powerful conversation, Susan shares:
• Who she was before that night at 17
• How the assassination of her father reshaped her identity
• The lack of mental health support for kids in 1985
• Living with PTSD, panic attacks, and deep depression
• The difficult path of processing grief without guidance
• Choosing healing, resilience, and forgiveness
If you’re in your 20s carrying trauma, navigating grief, or searching for hope after loss, this episode offers honest insight and the reminder that healing is possible.
