What do you do when your husband runs off with your teenage goddaughter? You write some songs, dye your wedding dress black and – make a show.

In this episode, my guest, Tracey Yarad shares her story of loss after an unexpected divorce and starting over after 50 to write a successful one-woman musical memoir – All These Pretty Things.

Tracey shares her story including her devastating marriage breakdown and how she rose again, starting over to rediscover herself and her passion.

Meet Tracey

Australian-born, New York-based vocalist and pianist Yarad, who had a top 40 hit in the 1990s, will perform several deeply personal and emotionally resonant original songs drawn from her experiences. Audiences will hear about the couple’s experience as a travelling juggling and music duo, the gruelling but star-studded life of working seven years as a cover band in five-star Tokyo hotels, to running her own music school in the Blue Mountains of Australia. In the aftermath of the divorce, she started again in her 50s, leaving Australia and travelling the world as a solo musician for the first time. However, it was settling in New York, a move that brought about a transformative change in her life, that truly helped to restore her.

Are you tired of living life by default rather than design? Need some magical disruption instead of going through the notions. In this episode my guest reveals how saying “Hell YES!” to disruption in your life, you can open yourself up to a catalytic shift that can transform your life.

My guest today is Kat O’Sullivan, author of ‘From Doubt to Do’, keynote speaker and coach. In this episode, Kat shares her story and provides valuable advice on making the shift from Impossible to Possible.During the interview we discussed:Kat’s story and how she came to write ‘From Doubt to Do’

Meet Kat

Kat believes when "SHIFT HAPPENS," it's time to "MAKE MAGIC HAPPEN." She is an author, speaker, consultant and coach. For over 25 years, Kat has helped individuals and organizations discover new possibilities, even if it feels impossible. She has worked across sectors -- corporate, nonprofit, education, and privately owned businesses, providing a roadmap, tools, and support to bring those new possibilities to life.Kat O’Sullivan’s life had an unusual beginning. Being born in a secret city and the resulting secrecy factor in her early life made it challenging to show up authentically until, at 16 she convinced Bob Hope to sponsor her travels with Up With People. It was the catalyst for becoming a lifelong changemaker. In the middle of COVID, she and her husband packed up their lives and moved to Mexico. Kat continues to share her inspiring message as an author and speaker. Her new book, From Doubt to Do: Navigating Your Pathway to Possibility is for anyone facing a significant transition who has doubts about what else is possible in the next chapter of their life. It’s for anyone who wants to dream big and live boldly to create a fulfilling life they will love. Kat is passionate about helping people move toward the future just waiting for them to say "Hell, YES!" to new possibilities.
