episode 69: Suzy Cato
SUZY CATO.
I think for the most part Suzy is a New Zealander who needs no introduction. Chances are if you are in your 20s or 30s now, she was a big part of your childhood (she is the undisputed queen of children’s TV in Aotearoa).
In this episode, I had the pleasure of diving deep into her life and career. We explored her beginnings in radio, her transition to TV, and how she met her husband, Steve.
We also discussed Susie's experiences dealing with the heartbreak of losing a baby and being let go from TV3, as well as how she bounced back from those terrible experiences.
We talked about Susie's relationship with exercise and her childhood growing up in Kaikohe.
We touched on Suzy’s personal experiences with prioritizing mental health, coping with grief and navigating career changes.
We also discussed her stints on reality TV with Dancing with the Stars and The Masked Singer.
She is such fun company and I really hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did.
