My Book | Sarah Susak

A powerful reminder that in moments of darkness, light can always be found within YOU.

“This book shows that sometimes our words can become The Word. Sometimes our way can become The Way."

Is your happiness dependant on someone or something else changing? Are you struggling to find purpose in your pain? Do you long for a lasting kind of fulfilment?

Sarah Susak knows exactly how you feel. Through childhood trauma, challenging relationships and a life-threatening health diagnosis, Sarah often wondered why life can sometimes feel so damn hard – and whether she could find her way through.

For decades she looked to others for the answers, assigning guru status to anyone and anything outside herself that she believed would save her from suffering. Unwittingly, she was living in reliance on everyone and everything ‘out there’, unaware of the wisdom and power she already held within.

In YOURU (pronounced you-ru), Sarah shares a raw and deeply personal account of her unique journey from seeking validation and rescue from others to finding and embracing self-sufficiency. She details how a rare and deadly head and neck cancer diagnosis shattered her world, but led her to the ancient practice of Vedic meditation, which helped her piece it back together. Through her story, she illustrates how turning inwards delivers the healing, clarity and answers she has always craved.

With candour, warmth and moments of laugh-out-loud humour, Sarah offers a helping hand for those who feel stuck, afraid or at the mercy of circumstance. She proves it’s possible to break free from the past, overcome setbacks and step into a life of purpose, community and self-empowerment.

Part memoir, part self-help book, part kick-ass manifesto, YOURU is the nudge you need when you no longer know where to look.

ABOUT SARAH

Sarah Susak is a full-time working mum.

A commercial lawyer with over two decades of experience, Sarah has led the legal function of some of the world’s most iconic brands, including Coca-Cola and Colgate-Palmolive, across the South Pacific and Europe.

In 2017, shortly after becoming a mother, Sarah was diagnosed with a rare and deadly head and neck cancer. Her journey through major facial reconstructive surgeries, intensive radiation treatment and ongoing medical challenges led her to discover the ancient practice of Vedic meditation, which became a cornerstone of her recovery and inspired her to train as a Vedic meditation teacher. In 2023 she launched Medi Steady Go®, a business dedicated to sharing the wisdom and techniques that she credits with saving her life.

After being in remission of cancer for almost seven years, while completing YOURU in 2024 Sarah was diagnosed with a metastasis to the lung. Though safely removed, she developed a rare autoimmune condition which saw her on life support and hospitalised for almost three months. With the help of holistic health practices and her daily meditation routine, she made a remarkable recovery, defying medical expectations.

She is now living a joyful and purpose-filled life in Sydney with her husband and daughter.

YOURU is her first book.
