Discover how your Soul carefully chose the lessons, people, and paths that shape your life's Divine Journey
"We chose the lessons, the timing, and the people - even the pain - because love, at the soul level, is willing to become the student."
-Susan Grau

Why we choose certain People and Relationships for Spiritual Growth
How to see Life through the Lens of Divine Planning and Love
Before arriving on Earth, Susan explains, our souls gather with Spirit and guides to map out a curriculum for growth. These soul contracts aren’t punishments — they are promises made in love. Whether it’s a difficult parent, a soulmate who teaches loss, or a health challenge that forces transformation, each contract is carefully selected to fulfill our soul’s mission. Susan shares that she chose her own adoption, including the trauma and joy that would arise from it, as part of her soul’s deeper work around abandonment and unconditional love.
These contracts often involve soul groups — clusters of souls who incarnate together in different roles across lifetimes. One lifetime you may be the parent, in another, the child. Susan reminds us that every interaction, especially the painful ones, can be a sacred agreement to awaken our divinity. This understanding reframes suffering into spiritual purpose and helps us see others not as enemies or saviors, but as willing partners in growth. “Nothing is random,” she writes. “Even your heartbreak is divine.”
“You chose this life. Not to suffer - but to remember who you are, even in the forgetting."
