Episode 30 – Sex and the Senior Girl

Everyone is afraid to ask Susan Warner what it’s like to be with a man after she was in a storybook marriage for 38 years. I decided to ask her that question in this podcast for all the respectful book and lifestyle writers who are interviewing Susan since the release of her memoir “Never Say Never, Never Say Always… Always…Love, Loss, and Loving Again” (The Three Tomatoes Publishing). It’s a valid question considering her book is all about how she survived the catastrophic loss of her 32-year-old son to suicide six years ago and then six months later the death of her husband to a virulent cancer eight weeks after his diagnosis. 

Yet Susan has been living a full, happy life for the last several years, especially since her daughter gave birth to her first grandchild almost a year ago. This podcast is all about how to make choices. To those who know her it’s not surprising that she leads a satisfying existence whether she’s married or single. She believes in creating happiness, not looking for it.

Susan’s book “Never Say Never, Never Say Always” is available now on Amazon.com.

Episode 27 – Silent Suffering

Ever since Susan Warner started her own podcast, “Susan Is Suddenly Single,” 27 episodes ago, she has been receiving fan mail from people who lost spouses, children, parents, best friends, etc. They all thank her for her wisdom, spirit and honesty. It was very comforting for them to know they are not alone. Her words give them the confidence to understand there are better days ahead.

Episode 26 – Winston

The one being that has constantly been at Susan Warner’s side since her son David, and then her husband Michael, died six years ago, is her handsome Scottish Terrier, Winston. Everyone who owns a dog knows the irreplaceable comfort that a dog brings on a daily basis. When crises strikes, their companionship is irreplaceable. Pets represent normalcy, consistency, devotion, tender love, no judgement and loyalty.

Susan’s upcoming book, “Never Say Never, Never Say Always,” will devote a chapter to Winston because he holds a very special place in her life and recovery. He could probably tell us secrets about Susan no one knows. Winston is a major part of Susan’s return to normalcy and a major part of her heart. Everyone who meets Winston knows he deserves so much credit. This podcast is devoted to him.

Episode 23 – Never Say Never, Never Say Always

I will be releasing my book this fall, “Never Say Never, Never Say Always.” It’s all about my life from the minute I heard that my son David died by suicide, followed by the death of my husband Michael six months later to cancer, to present day. It’s now six years later and I call myself Susan 2.0 because my life has morphed and evolved. It took a lot of courage to write a book about how I went from a charmed life, to a life filled with tragedy, to living a life filled with joy. “Never Say Never, Never Say Always” is going to be an emotional ride for every reader, but it’s worth it. You will relate to parts of my journey, no matter what your personal situation is. My words may put your life into proper perspective. Don’t miss out on this opportunity. It is worth reading and it’s worth owning.

Episode 22 – The Subject Of Suicide

Not too many people understand why a growing number of men, women and children are choosing death by suicide. The press is filled with young people and celebrities alike that take their own lives. It is now time to take a hard look at this phenomenon. Susan’s 32-year-old son died by suicide six years ago. Tragically her husband of 38 years died of an aggressive cancer six months later. Susan has spent the last year sharing her experiences and thoughts with others through essays, editorial interviews, podcasts and quotes from her soon to be released book “Never Say Never, Never Say Always.”

It’s time for Susan to focus on the subject of suicide in ways we haven’t heard from her before. She wants to be very careful about the way she addresses the topic because she is not a trained mental health counselor. Unfortunately, she has had more personal experience in this area than many others. She wants to share her insights and clear up many misconceptions.
