35: Suzy Sanchez's International Faith Journey

<p><strong>Suzy Sanchez</strong> is a 21-year-old pre-nursing student at BYU whose journey has taken her from the mountains near <strong>Mexico City</strong> to the scenic wilderness of <strong>Muskoka, Canada</strong>. Suzy shares how her childhood in Mexico, surrounded by family and nature, shaped her identity and why she views her younger brother as her &quot;best friend.&quot; Listeners will find inspiration in Susy&#39;s unique path to nursing, which began when her father, a surgical nurse, took her to witness live surgeries at age 15 to see if she was &quot;squeamish.&quot; She discusses her fascination with the human body as a <strong>perfect creation of Heavenly Father</strong> and her desire to serve others through healthcare. The interview also dives deep into Susy&#39;s <strong>spiritual development</strong>, including:</p><ul><ul><li><strong>Strengthening her faith in Canada:</strong> How living alone in a place with few Church members forced her to rely solely on her relationship with God.</li></ul><ul><li><strong>The &quot;Mission&quot; of daily life:</strong> Why she believes everyone has a unique mission to share kindness, whether or not they wear a missionary badge.</li></ul><ul><li><strong>Finding miracles in the mundane:</strong> A relatable story about overcoming self-doubt during a difficult <strong>organic chemistry exam</strong> and learning to see God’s hand in everyday life.</li></ul></ul><p>Finally, Suzy offers a moving message for her future descendants, reminding them of their <strong>divine souls</strong> and the importance of never forgetting their origins or their covenants.
