What if healing didn’t have to be complicated—and your body already knew what to do? In this uplifting episode of Interrupted: Act 2 Reinventing Your Legacy, I sit down with sound therapist SueZee Finley to explore healing through sound, energy, and simple daily practices that reconnect you to yourself.
