I'm Suzy Welch, host of the podcast Becoming You, where each week we come up with ways, actionable ways, where you are writing the narrative of your life. I'm so happy every day. I realized that I have to figure out what I want to do in order to be successful that might not look like I thought it would for my whole childhood. This is your life.
