The Interview: Susan Gold-The Magic of Making Mulch (and playing in the mud!)

Season 17, Episode 162,   Mar 03, 08:26 PM

Hey all!
I've got a beautiful episode this week with my guest Susan Gold, who left a life of celebrity and glitz to excavate something precious later in life-herself! I'm always urging you all to take the steps necessary to heal, to reconcile, to tend to that heart of yours and give it all the tools it needs to resonate with the beauty in this world-and that's what this episode is about! But beware, it is a heavy one with discussions of child abuse and generational trauma. So for those of you who are sensitive to this subject, please take care.
Susan is a prime example of a human who refused to be satisfied with a life that seemed shallow-celebrities, brands and convincing people to sign on the dotted line. But one day she realized that it was up to her to craft and alchemize a life worth living, one filled with forgiveness, magic and family. She talks so beautifully about it in this episode and it's a good one for reminding ourselves that we have the capacity to change our lives, heal our wounds, as well.
When I was a kid I loved playing in the mud. It was a good excuse to get dirty, but I just loved feeling the squish of that mud between my fingers! It was messy yes, but oh so worth it! And that's what we're talking about this week, except instead of actual mud we're talking about my life, your life, our lives, and squishing them up, releasing our trauma and creating something gold from what emerges.
Cheers to all of us and the journeys that we are on!

I have to tell you that Susan had me at her use of the world "FLUFF" as a curse word. Brilliant! I'm going to try to incorporate it into my life, and maybe you should too!
