In the kingdom of love there is no competition; there is no possessiveness or control. The more love you give away, the more love you will have✨

So in love 🤍

Two months ago I took a pregnancy test.

I have had a hard time finding the words to share about this experience, but putting something down in writing feels like part of my healing and making sense of all that has happened since 💔🕯️

Mark had a vasectomy last October.
…but he didn’t go for a follow up.

Ever since the procedure, when people asked if we were going to have more children my answer was always
“only if there is a miracle! Or an act of God!”

Well, miracles happen.

With less than a .04% chance, his procedure healed and completely corrected itself.

So you could imagine how I felt on May 6th when I took the test.

I was confused and afraid as I prayed out loud “Dear God - Thy will, not mine, be done”

And slowly but surely, a second line appeared.

The due date was Christmas.
A Christmas miracle.

It was not our plan.
Not something we felt prepared for…
And Mark and I were completely at odds about what to do.
It was the most challenging time in our relationship.

At the same time, we found out we might have to move to San Diego for his work. And I was questioning my own work - feeling The Copper Vessel shifting, feeling burnt out by the business side of things... something was changing but I was not sure exactly how. There were days when I wanted to write an Instagram post that just said “I quit!”
… in truth, I was questioning my entire identity.
It felt like everything in my life was crumbling.

Over the next few weeks I became very quiet.
I went inward and sat in stillness and prayer.

The guidance I received was to just keep trusting. Just keep taking the next step.

God wanted more for us and of us.
Life as we knew it was changing.
We wanted to keep cruising in familiar comfort.
But God said “No, think bigger!”

Continued in my next post… 🤍

Someone asked me this morning how long I’ve lived with alopecia. I began experiencing it when I was 7… which means this year will be 30 years! Wow. I don’t have any pictures from those early days. It was my biggest secret. For so long, I didn’t want anyone to know. I felt like something was wrong with me and told myself people would think I was a freak if they found out. Even in my early days as a healer, I wore wigs to hide my bald spots and feared people would think I was unhealthy or a fraud.

But it turns out the truth is what set me free. It’s easier said than done… but isn’t that always the case?

Letting go took years. I remember staying up late one night in 2015 googling pictures of bald women. Something inside me whispered to shave it all off. That didn’t happen until June 2019. And even then, it took a few months after shaving to let myself be seen.

In August 2019 I played singing bowls with the LA Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl. I debated whether or not to wear my wig… being on stage in front of 14,000 people felt too vulnerable. I wore it. But it felt so wrong. And that was the last time I did.

Just two months later I met my husband. He says he can’t even imagine me with hair 🥹
My business took off. My life came into full alignment in the way I had always dreamed it would.

Little by little I stopped noticing people looking at me. I stopped stressing over whether they’d ask if I was going through chemo. I relaxed into myself. I finally felt free 💗

I don’t post about alopecia much anymore… what once felt like a bleeding wound has healed into an elegant scar. But the journey is still part of who I am. People still ask about it, but it no longer stings. I know I’m healthy. I have nothing to hide. Living with my crown exposed is vulnerable… and yes, I still sometimes feel anxious about it. But don’t we all feel a little bit anxious from time to time?

We are all whole.
We are all worthy.
We all have the ability to live in unconditional love, feeling free.

Alopecia has been my greatest teacher, and that is what it has taught me 🤍

Feeling extra grateful today for the soul sisters who walk this path with me.

Being a healer isn’t something we do - it’s something we are. It’s a way of being. Of living. Fully. Embodied. Awake. Alive. And while the journey is beautiful, it’s not always easy.

When things are flowing and dreams are unfolding, it means the world to be seen, supported, and celebrated by a community that truly gets it. And when things feel tender or uncertain, having a circle that holds you with love and presence is everything.

It reminds me of something a dear soul sister and member of mentor team, first shared with me… She told me that female elephants circle around one of their own when she’s in labor, in pain, or in danger. They create a shield of strength and safety - a living reminder that we are never alone.

That’s what this community feels like - The Sound Healers Academy isn’t just a training… it’s a movement rooted in love. A sacred circle of lightworkers rising together to uplift the world.

Right now, I’m in a season of pause - a moment of deep listening, healing, and re-rooting. And I’m so grateful that I get to be fully human here. I am so grateful I can take the time and space I need, while feeling so supported and being held in love.

This is the kind of community I dreamed of building. One where healing is reciprocal, where it’s safe to grow and rest, and where we get to remember: we were never meant to do this alone. If that is something that calls to you too, please join us in - our doors are open and we would love to welcome you 🌸

Thank you for walking with me.
I am sending you so much love 🤍✨

✨HEALING + REST GIVEAWAY ✨

May is Mental Health Awareness Month… and this conversation is deeply personal to me 🙏🏼

Nine years ago, I was struggling. I had just moved to California, was newly sober, and navigating overwhelming anxiety and daily panic attacks. I felt lost, ungrounded, and unsure of how to care for myself. But little by little, I discovered tools that helped me feel safe in my body again… meditation, sound healing, breathwork, rest… and learning how to regulate my nervous system.

These practices changed my life, and they became the foundation for everything I now share through The Copper Vessel.

Today, I’m so honored to partner with for a very special Mental Health Awareness Giveaway, because everyone deserves access to simple, powerful tools that support peace and presence.

One lucky winner will receive:

🤍 A beautiful, grounding weighted blanket from

Life feels tender and messy right now.

Not the kind of mess I feel inspired to share, but the kind that makes me want to go inward, retreat, and just be with what’s unfolding.

There’s a shift happening… deep within and all around me. And while I’ve been through many seasons of change before, this one feels like a breaking point. A turning point. A sacred pause between what was and what’s coming next.

I want clarity. I want answers. I want to know what I’m being asked to release-but I don’t quite know yet.

So I’m waiting. Surrendering. Listening.

Almost 10 years since I hit rock bottom and said yes to choosing a new life.
8 years as a full-time healer and entrepreneur.
6 years since I shaved my head.
3 years as a mama.

And once again, I feel that same familiar, uncomfortable whisper calling me to trust the unknown… to surrender to change.

I have so many visions. So much I want to build and share and create. But more than anything right now, I feel the deep call to pause…
to pump the brakes,
slow down,
and allow space for what’s next to become clear.

I don’t know exactly how that looks just yet…
but when I do, I promise I’ll share it with you.

Thank you for being here.
For witnessing me in the unknown.
For allowing me to be human, too.

xx Susy 🤍
