How Suzanne Paul Went Bankrupt After Infomercial Fame - Resiliency, Sales Advice & More!
Suzanne Paul is maybe one of the most recognizable voices and faces in NZ- the Infomercial queen.
This is a story of perseverance and determination from a woman who has experienced huge highs and unimaginable lows.
From selling vacuum cleaners door-to-door to starring on TV, to overcoming dyslexia and bankruptcy. Every part of her story emphasizes the importance of persistence, optimism and CHOOSING to have a positive outlook regardless of the situation.
We cover it all here:
The infomercials. The insane success. The TV career. The bankruptcy. The blue monkey song. Winning DWTS. Her IVF journey. Her marriages. Rapping with Scribe. Stand up comedy and much more.

I can’t speak highly enough about their protein powders.
If you think protein shakes are just for gym junkies, think again. Most of us don’t get enough protein, and a shake with a scoop of protein powder is the best way to fix that.
It’s also great if your goal is to manage your weight- it fills you up without heaps of dead calories.
Check them out. I love the coconut and banana…but all the Radix flavors kick ass.

She’s a Diamond, she really does sparkle and shine. Great interview.
Susanne you are a legend. Love your outlook in life, great advice.❤
This is a great interview. I was also bankrupted in NZ in 2017 at 50. I can relate to that. Its a tragedy that our NZ insolvency laws cause so much trauma and hardships, on top of being in debt. It really needs to change. No public laws should ever be allowed to cause suffering and force people to have to sell their homes when they have nowhere to go. Insolvency laws are corrupt in NZ. And the money that the insolvency office collects from selling possessions does not all go to creditors.
I’m so glad rupaul gave her, her flowers she’s been a pillar in the community of nz drag I love her, me and my cousin would pretend to do the vibrating cushion commercial and the scarf pin commercial with tea towels haha
An incredible lady with such a great attitude to life. We can all learn so much from her journey.
Thoroughly enjoyed this podcast, amazing lady. Love her positive attitude to EVERYTHING ❤

Great chat and story , thanks fo the wisdom !
Yes I was thinking ADHD only because I have & relate to similar behaviour & thinking etc I think Suzanne looks amazing 😍 I'd never guess her at being even close to late 60s . mid to late 50s. More so. She's a battler & I'm proud of her perseverance. She's an inspiration to me 💪💎
Gotta love this woman. Sparkle and shine!

People in New Zealand may think the first 10 minutes are strange, but a lot of schools in New Zealand were just the same. But who didn't love the Blue Monkey
Hey Dom did you know they've invented something called 'shoes'! You should buy some and wear them!!! Or are you reliving your kindergarten days rocking bare feet!? haha
