In this episode of 9–5 Exit Plan, I sit down with bestselling author and former educator Susan Gooch.

Susan shares her journey from inspiring students in the classroom to writing The Carrington Series, a collection of novels celebrating strong women, lifelong friendships, resilience, and second chances.

We discuss creativity, personal growth, storytelling, reading, reinvention, and the life lessons that great stories can teach us.

Whether you’re an aspiring writer, an avid reader, or simply someone searching for encouragement in your own journey, this conversation will leave you inspired to embrace the next chapter of your life.
