  • Learning to Trust Yourself Again: Self-care after Gaslighting

    Learning to Trust Yourself Again: Self-care after Gaslighting
    Jan 27 2026
    Did you know that gaslighting doesn’t only happen in romantic relationships, but can show up in families, friendships, workplaces, spiritual spaces, and even inside your own mind long after the other person is gone?In this episode of Infinite Life, Infinite Wisdom, Susan Grau talks honestly about gaslighting, not as a buzzword, but as something that slowly teaches you to doubt yourself. Your memory. Your feelings. Your intuition. Drawing from her own experience and the work she’s done with clients, Susan explains how gaslighting can leave you disconnected from your body, unsure of your truth, and constantly questioning whether you were right or wrong.She shares why the impact of gaslighting often continues long after the relationship or situation has ended, and why that ongoing self-doubt isn’t a flaw. It’s a survival response. Susan also talks about what healing really looks like, and it’s not dramatic or confrontational. It’s quiet and reparative. Learning to believe in yourself again. Reducing contact with invalidating energy. Setting clearer boundaries. Letting yourself rest, pause, and be silent without guilt.This episode is a gentle reminder that if you were gaslit, you were not weak. You were trusting, open, and human. Healing begins when you stop looking to others for closure and start choosing yourself, even when it feels uncomfortable.In This Episode:[00:00] Introduction [01:30] Gaslighting beyond romantic relationships[02:46] Defining gaslighting and its effects[04:02] Common phrases and accountability avoidance[05:22] Impact on intuition and self-trust[06:44] Personal experience and disconnection[08:57] Overriding intuition and survival response[10:10] Self-abandonment and explaining pain[11:12] Avoiding invalidating people and relearning self-care[12:18] Reparative self-care and trusting yourself[13:33] Physical responses and recognizing gaslighting[14:37] Slowing down and silence without guilt[15:49] Setting boundaries and reducing exposure[17:46] Distance as protection, not punishment[18:42] Self-love as loyalty and choosing peace[19:47] Why people stay and the role of hope[22:02] Healing feels quieter and rooted[23:13] Freedom from needing admission[24:34] The loop: replaying conversations[25:33] Closure comes from within[26:40] Breaking the loop and nervous system repair[27:47] Longer gaps and present-moment healing[28:53] Self-love means releasing the need for clarity[29:30] Conclusion Notable Quotes[03:26] “You stop asking, ‘Is this okay?’ And start asking, ‘Am I okay for feeling this?’”[04:58] “Most gaslighting comes from people who cannot tolerate accountability.”[08:45] “Gaslighting separates you from your inner knowing.”[11:22] “You weren’t too much. You were too aware for someone who needed control.”[12:09] “Self-care isn’t a bubble bath. It’s relearning how to listen to yourself without apology.”[13:24] “Your experience is valid because you lived it.”[19:15] “I choose peace over being right.”[21:18] “Staying doesn’t mean you were weak. It means you were human.”[21:39] “Leaving is not a failure. It’s wisdom arriving.”[25:53] “The same person who distorted your reality cannot be the one who restores it.”[27:47] “Some chapters do not end with understanding. They end with self-respect.”[28:42] “My peace does not require permission.”Susan GrauSusan Grau is an internationally celebrated intuitive life coach, a key opinion leader, author, medium and speaker, who discovered her ability to communicate with the spirit world after a near-death experience at age four.

  • When Spirit Guides Speak: Messages, Signs & Support from the Unseen

    When Spirit Guides Speak: Messages, Signs & Support from the Unseen
    Jan 13 2026
    What if your spirit guides have been with you your entire life, quietly guiding, protecting, and nudging you forward long before you ever knew what to call them? In this episode of Infinite Life, Infinite Wisdom, Susan Grau explores who spirit guides truly are, how they communicate, and why so many people feel disconnected from their guidance even when it has been there all along.Susan clears up common myths, including the idea that guidance should be loud, dramatic, or urgent. True guidance, she explains, is subtle, calm, and grounded in clarity, not fear. She breaks down the ways guides communicate: through body sensations, repetition, timing, silence, curiosity, emotional resonance, and even exhaustion, especially during grief, trauma, or periods of spiritual awakening.Importantly, Susan reminds us that guides do not override free will, demand obedience, or remove pain. Their role is to help us reconnect with integrity, truth, and self-trust. This episode is not about becoming psychic or chasing signs. It is about remembering what your soul already knows and learning to listen to the quiet wisdom that has been guiding you all along.In This Episode:[00:00] Introduction[00:46] Understanding spirit guides[02:00] Myths and truths about spirit guides[03:28] How spirit guides communicate[11:52] Recognizing guidance through the body[15:08] The role of silence in guidance[16:48] Guidance during grief and trauma[19:03] The purpose of guides[20:43] Guidance and life's momentum[21:08] Understanding guidance and integrity[22:00] Recognizing and trusting your inner voice[22:16] The role of fear in blocking guidance[22:40] The mind vs. the soul[23:46] Guidance through erosion and discomfort[25:18] The importance of timing and boundaries[26:40] Emotional reactions and recognition[27:24] Disruption of habits and growth[29:17] Dreams as a communication tool[29:58] Curiosity and exploration[30:42] Exhaustion and alignment[31:25] Guides and the truth of your path[32:50] Integration and embodiment of guidance[34:00] The role of spirit guides in your life[40:48] Final thoughtsNotable Quotes[03:08] “Guides don't shout, they signal.”[05:06] “Your guides don't leave during grief. They move closer.”[10:58] “Guidance is efficient. It's not theatrical.”[15:41] “Silence usually means integration is required… It shifts authority from external reassurance to internal stability.”[16:53] “In grief, communication often becomes more physical and emotional rather than verbal.”[19:58] “Fear is never the voice of a guide. Urgency, shame, pressure, these are not guidance.”[22:00] “Most people are already hearing their guides and calling it something else: intuition, gut instinct, coincidence, luck.”[31:33] “Guides do not communicate to make your life easier. They communicate to make it truer.”[33:29] “Guides communicate until you no longer need to be convinced that you are guided.”[40:51] “Spirit guides are not here to tell you who to be. They're here to remind you who you already are.”Susan GrauSusan Grau is an internationally celebrated intuitive life coach, a key opinion leader, author, medium and speaker, who discovered her ability to communicate with the spirit world after a near-death experience at age four.
