The following podcast is a dear media production.

Hi, this is Pia Barancini and welcome to everything is the best, the podcast where I get vulnerable

and make others do it with me.

The goal here is to deep dive into interesting people's journeys, finding common denominators,

and hopefully making you feel not so alone. So let's laugh, let's cry, and let's get inspired to live our best lives.

We often hear inspirational stories, right? But Susie Batiz, the founder and CEO of Poopery and

Supernatural, really takes the kick. Although she recently tied the Forbes list of America's richest self-made women with Reese Witherspoon,

Susie's journey to success was a goddamn battle.

She grew up in poverty, surviving childhood sexual and domestic abuse, two bankruptcies, three

divorces and severe depression.

She sold exercise equipment, opened a clothing store, tanning salon, beauty salon,

sold lingerie, bought homes, sold homes, and at certain points became homeless.

She was so focused on money, solving her problems, that she lost herself.

Her aha moment came after reading Byron Katie's

loving what is, at which point she dropped everything

and attended her 10-day seminar.

Five years later, after filing for bankruptcy

for a second time at 38,

Susie sold her first bottle of Poopery.

I've been buzzing since we had this conversation

and I am so lucky to share this story with you.
