Women on the Rise: Rising from the Rubble with Susan Snow

In this powerful Women on the Rise episode of the BFF Empowerment Podcast, Blaque Diamond sits down with coach, speaker, and author Susan Snow—a woman who knows firsthand what it means to bulldoze through fear. Susan shares the heartbreaking story of losing her father, a Los Angeles police detective, who was ambushed and killed while saving her younger brother’s life on Halloween night when she was just 17. She opens up about the years of unrecognized PTSD, depression, anxiety, emotional masking, and feeling invisible in her own grief—and how a compassionate, trauma-competent therapist finally gave her language, tools, and hope for healing.

Susan talks about her journey from silent suffering to writing her deeply vulnerable book, embracing modalities like journaling, breathwork, EFT, EMDR, and nature, and ultimately stepping into her calling as a trauma resiliency coach. She and Blaque Diamond explore forgiveness, breaking generational patterns, releasing guilt and shame, and reclaiming your power after life-shattering trauma. If you’ve ever felt “broken,” silenced, or stuck in your healing journey, this episode will remind you that you are not alone—and that you can learn to live fully again.
