S1 E24: From Rock Bottom to Rising Leader: Reinvention, Resilience, and AI with Susan Sly

In this raw and riveting episode of the Built By Love Podcast, hosts Daniel Bussius and Peter Daly-Dickson sit down with Susan Sly—tech founder, best-selling author, speaker, and Ironman athlete—for a deeply vulnerable conversation about reinvention, resilience, and radical transformation. 

Diagnosed with progressive MS at age 27, Susan lost everything—her health, her marriage, her business, and her home—within 16 weeks. But that breakdown became her breakthrough. Susan reveals how she turned tragedy into triumph, healing her body, rebuilding her life, and eventually launching multiple companies—most recently, an AI startup focused on supporting women through hormonal changes. 

She unpacks her journey of self-discovery, overcoming limiting beliefs (aka “rackets”), navigating faith and family, and staying balanced while building multimillion-dollar businesses. This episode explores the intersection of entrepreneurship, wellness, AI, and conscious leadership—and why the next chapter of technology must be infused with purpose, compassion, and love.
