Sarah's Thoughts: The Dark Truth Behind Success. What Avicii’s Story Reveals About All of Us

When Sarah sat down to watch Avicii - I'm Tim, she didn’t expect it to hit so hard. The story of Swedish DJ Avicii wasn’t just about fame, it was about the unseen struggles that eventually led to his tragic death. And the truth is, his story isn’t unique. In this episode of Sarah’s Thoughts, Sarah unpacks the reality behind the curated lives we see on the surface. How often do we assume someone is fine just because they seem successful, happy, or put-together? How often do we check in, really check in, with the people around us? By the end of this episode, you’ll understand why the stories we don’t share often matter the most, how to recognise the silent struggles of those around you, and why deep connection starts with truly seeing and listening.   Purchase Sarah's book: Living A Life Of Greatness here.
