Careers · NYU Stern Professor Suzy Welch
by NYU Stern Professor Suzy Welch
Have you ever wondered, “What should I do with my life?” Or, “Should I stay or should I go?” Or, “Is there anyone out there who actually tells the freaking truth about life and work today, but also does not leave me in despair?” Wonder no more! The “Becoming You” podcast has arrived, hosted by Suzy Welch, the business journalist-turned-professor at the helm of NYU’s wildly popular self-discovery class by the same name. A three New York Times best-seller and frequent contributor to the Today Show and the Wall Street Journal, Professor Welch is considered a leading expert on decision-making, and the discovery and pursuit of authentic purpose. But virtually no topic is off-bounds in her irreverent new podcast, from parenting fails (including her own) to perfect poems (none of her own, thank God.) Also included: Pointed opinions on dogs, Gen Z, marriage, credit default swaps, golf skirts, career killing mistakes, and under-appreciated TV shows you really have to see immediately. OK, there is actually nothing in the podcast about credit default swaps. Tune in every week to laugh, learn, get riled up, get calmed down, and basically get closer to becoming you, joyfully, in this crazy, upside-down, scary, messy, and altogether beautiful world we share.

This is a great podcast, and I love the Becoming You book as well. I’ve taken the values bridge quiz and this resource is very insightful, and the resources have been very helpful for me to figure out my next chapter in life and to make sure my values are aligned.
Wish I had found Suzy sooner. The book is great, the podcast is great, the newsletter is (I’m sticking with it) GREAT! Be prepared for painfully good introspection. Grateful to have found Becoming You.
I found Suzy’s podcast a few months ago and I binged listened to all of them and now await each new episode! I love her passion to help people discover and live their values. Her passion is contagious!
I took a break from my walk where I was listening to another Suzy podcast to write this review. I loved her book and especially the values framework which is genius! The podcast gives me bite sized ways to delve a little deeper and there is always a nugget of true brilliance in every episode. She’s honest and authentic and her hard earned wisdom resonates with me so deeply. I only wish I’d discovered her when I was younger but she’ll tell you “it’s never too late!”
Her site advertises a free test, but after submitting your email and completing the test, you're taken to a payment page. This approach feels deceptive and undermines trust.
Wanted to like this, but couldn't get past the first couple of episodes. Not interested in a one-percenter go on and on about her dogs (women of a certain age who used to drone on about their privileged children now drone on about their privileged pets) and rubbing elbows with the clueless elitists in NYC who don't know and don't care how the rest of the world lives. Honestly, do these people listen to themselves? Do they not realize what an echo chamber they live in? The funny thing is I get the impression that the host would consider herself down-to-earth. But reading the rest of the reviews, I guess I'm in the minority here. Just not for me.
