Suzanne Paul is maybe one of the most recognizable voices and faces in NZ- the Informercial queen.
This is a story of perseverance and determination from a woman who has experienced huge highs and unimaginable lows.
From selling vacuum cleaners door-to-door to starring on TV, to overcoming dyslexia and bankruptcy. Every part of her story emphasizes the importance of persistence, optimism and CHOOSING to have a positive outlook regardless of the situation.
We cover it all here:
The infomercials. The insane success. The TV career. The bankruptcy. The blue monkey song. Winning DWTS. Her IVF journey. Her marriages. Rapping with Scribe. Stand up comedy and much more.

I can’t speak highly enough about their protein powders.
If you think protein shakes are just for gym junkies, think again. Most of us don’t get enough protein, and a shake with a scoop of protein powder is the best way to fix that.
It’s also great if your goal is to manage your weight- it fills you up without heaps of dead calories.
Check them out. I love the coconut and banana…but all the Radix flavors kick ass.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
