  • Finally.

    This podcast is a true study of humans by someone that is so passionate about helping people figure out what they wanna do with their lives. It’s not naval gazey, it’s honest it’s real. It’s tactical and useful in many ways and it’s totally entertaining.

  • Great podcast

    This is a great podcast, and I love the Becoming You book as well. I’ve taken the values bridge quiz and this resource is very insightful, and the resources have been very helpful for me to figure out my next chapter in life and to make sure my values are aligned.

  • So much learning

    I found this amazing podcast from an ad on the Unpaused podcast & i’m so glad I did! I had no idea about the wide range of values until now I cannot wait to learn about all the values, figure out, which are my top five, and read Suzy‘s books. This will also help as a parent, my teen and young adult children!

  • Great business advice, hard to listen to about her relationship with her kids

    On behalf of your children, kindly reflect on your role in your relationship with them. Your kids should not be so aware of all the (personal, harmless) choices they make that you don’t like. I empathize for what they have felt like under your shadow. The world doesn’t need 8 billion Suzies. We need one Suzy and they need a mom who doesn’t make them feel bad for any opinion they have that differs with theirs.

Q: And so what do you think about dating apps?
Zohar says dating apps are not inherently the problem, but users should recognize that people on them may have different intentions and circumstances. She met her partner through an app after being direct about what she wanted, and advises taking agency rather than assuming every match seeks the same kind of relationship.
