OCD, perimenopause, and hitting rock bottom: This year on Happy Place

Which episodes of Happy Place have stayed with you this year?


Reflecting on some of the chats she’s had this year, Fearne explores her own OCD diagnosis, how she copes when she’s gripped by shame, and why her attitude towards periods has shifted.


She also talks about just how powerful her friendship with Davina McCall is, and why her recent episode with Malala has prompted conversations about women’s rights with her own kids.
