Becoming You with Suzy Welch

Becoming You and…Becoming Me: The Untold Story, Until Now, Because, Well, Here It Is


Listen Later

Every book has a backstory, and Becoming You (published today, heck yeah!) is no exception. In this episode, we go behind the scenes — not just of the writing of the book, but of the emotional excavation and journey of reinvention it required. 

Told Rashomon-style, this funny, poignant, and intimate episode features the voices of the people who lived the story alongside Suzy: her children, best friend, co-workers, even her trainer. Together, they trace the winding path from personal heartbreak to public purpose—starting with Suzy’s interior reckoning after the death of her husband, through the surprise success of Becoming You as a course at NYU, and her deep hesitation about turning the methodology into a book.

At its core, Becoming You is a self-discovery method that helps people answer life’s most important question: What should I do with my life? And Suzy knew that writing it down—truly doing it justice—would take everything she had.

But everything shifts after an unexpected walk in the woods with her daughter—a moment of clarity that becomes the turning point.

This is the story of how Becoming You came to be. And it’s also the story of how Suzy, in writing it, became herself.

Take Becoming You IRL at the Three-Day Becoming You Intensive this October.
