Death In The Red Dirt Uncover the Truth Before the Outback Buries It

Death In The Red Dirt Uncover the Truth Before the Outback Buries It The Not Old Better Show, Art of Living Interview Series     🎙️Intro: The Not Old Better Show – Art of Living Series🎙️ Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, Art of Living series—where we speak with fascinating people who prove that age isn’t a finish line… it’s an invitation. I’m Paul Vogelzang, and today, we’re diving into a conversation that blends the edge-of-your-seat excitement of a thriller novel with the quiet awe of standing alone in the Australian outback. Our guest is Alice Cadd, and she’s not your everyday thriller writer. With a 30-year career as a psychiatrist, Alice knows the human mind better than most. But instead of retirement and rocking chairs, she picked up the pen—and what came out is a stunning new psychological thriller titled Death in the Red Dirt. It’s intense, it’s smart, and it pulls you deep into the rugged beauty and hidden tensions of the Australian outback. Her tagline? “Uncover the truth before the Outback buries it.” That’s not just a warning—it’s a promise. But Alice’s story doesn’t end on the page. She’s also a fierce environmentalist, a solo camper, and someone who’s swum with whale sharks, heard humpback whales sing beneath the sea, and watched turtles glide past under the stars. She’s chosen a life full of risk, beauty, and meaning—and she's doing it all in what she calls the third stage of her life. We’ll talk about reinvention, about leaning into change with curiosity instead of fear, and how writing, wildness, and wonder have become Alice’s new compass. So stay with us, because this is not just a story about crime fiction—it’s a story about finding your truth, even when the road gets dusty. And it’s told with grace, grit, and a bit of red dirt on your boots. This is The Not Old Better Show, and I’m your host, award-winning journalist Paul Vogelzang. 🎙️So let’s get into it—because whether you’re thinking about what’s next in your own life, or you just love a good story with sharp twists and deep insight, Alice Cadd has something to offer. From the consulting room to the red dirt roads of the outback, she’s lived it, written it, and she’s here to share it. Alice Cadd, welcome to the show. 🎙️ That was psychiatrist-turned-thriller-writer Alice Cadd—what a fascinating conversation. From the quiet power of reinvention to the thrill of new beginnings, Alice reminds us that this stage of life is every bit as dynamic, daring, and meaningful as the ones before it.
