  • 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.

  • Major audio issues

    Stumbled across this podcast and had to turn the volume all the way up to hear it. Then got blasted when the commercials came on. The content is ok. I only listened to one episode. I wasn’t familiar with her. When she mentioned her husband, Jack Welch, well, I’m very familiar with who he is. He pivoted the business strategy of GE to focus only on shareholder value. Well we all know how that has played out - tons of wealth in the hands of a few while the rest of us struggle to make a living and u... more

  • Yes!

    I just discovered this podcast due to the “show me your apartment” guy on social media. I’m listening episode by episode from the beginning. My 6 word novel would be “Girl, you were never the problem.”

  • Great podcast but too many filler episodes

    I would love to be able to give this podcast 5 stars because it has truly life changing content from a warm, inspiring host. But at this point I know all about Suzy’s origin story, family and friends, etc, and I don’t need to hear her fill air time with things like ‘two truths and a lie’, a big long ad for something I’m already sold on. At the very least have one of your younger generation guests in again so there’s some dialogue and new input to riff on (I’m not young myself but enjoy hearing ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Can You Heal a Wound Your Father Never Knew He Left? with Vienna Pharaon, MFT
Q: What do you think about no contact as a strategy for dealing with painful parental relationships?
No contact can be a valid, sometimes necessary boundary for preserving one's well-being, though many people cycle between periods of estrangement and reconnection; the key is to decide what serves your long-term health and to pursue a path that minimizes ongoing harm while acknowledging the complexity of family dynamics.
No One Can Get a Job Right Now. So Now What?
Q: What was the biggest surprise to you about entering the job market?
The biggest surprise was realizing that you're expected to know everything on day one, even for entry-level roles, because AI is changing what counts as essential experience and many traditional curricula don't map neatly to new positions.
I Raised Four Perfect Children. You Will Hate How I Did It. You’re Welcome.
Q: What did you want most for your kids?
To have strong character and the ability to make wise decisions, even when facing tough choices or temptations, with the confidence to be true to themselves.
I Raised Four Perfect Children. You Will Hate How I Did It. You’re Welcome.
Q: How would you describe our relationship?
Grew incredibly close, with a balance of affection and accountability, and a sense that they could rely on me as a mentor and guide while still pursuing their own paths.
FAQs: You Know What You Want. So Why Can't You Get There?
Q: Question number one, do your values change during your life?
Values can both stay relatively stable and also shift in expression due to life circumstances; the core values tend to be formed by the mid-20s, but their expression can change with seismic life events, allowing people to live more authentically over time.
