Season 6 Episode 5 - Interview with Alexsondra Tomasulo
In this deeply heartfelt episode, Susanna sits down with artist, writer, and spiritual seeker Alexsondra Tomasulo for an inspiring conversation about loss, resilience, and the power of creative and spiritual transformation. Alexsondra shares how grief became a profound teacher in her life following the sudden loss of her husband, and how rituals, writing, and even cold ocean swims helped her reconnect with herself and the divine. From spiritual morning practices to the courage of cold plunges and burnt popovers, Alexsondra reminds us that healing often begins when we allow ourselves to truly feel. Her stories of divine encounters, personal reflection, and intentional living are powerful guideposts for anyone navigating change or loss — and yearning to live more fully in tune with love.
