Happiness Sold Separately

“I Died, Came Back… and Built a Life Worth Living" | Ruth Soukup on Depression, Faith, and Freedom


Listen Later

At 21, Ruth Soukup died in the back of an ambulance. Doctors said she had a 10% chance to live.
Two decades later, she’s a bestselling author, millionaire entrepreneur, wife, mother — and survivor.

In this raw, unfiltered conversation with host Jason Hensley, Ruth reveals:

  • Her suicide attempts and miraculous survival

  • The long road through depression and six hospitalizations

  • Losing everything — marriage, friends, hope — and rebuilding from zero

  • How she turned pain into purpose and built multiple seven-figure brands

  • The moment faith found her again — through a baptism dress

  • Why “having it all” might be a myth, and what “living well” really means

If you’ve ever felt broken, hopeless, or like you’ve failed too much to start over — this one will shake you.
