Darren Hayes: Open Up About His Darkest Moments, Finding Love, Savage Garden and Inner Healing

The glitz, glamour and excitement on the outside is not always how a star feels on the inside.

This week, Sarah Grynberg sits down with Darren Hayes, internationally renowned singer, songwriter, and former frontman of the iconic band Savage Garden. With a voice that has touched millions and lyrics that speak to the soul, Darren’s music has left an indelible mark across the globe. But behind the spotlight lies a deeply personal story—one of struggles with identity, mental health, and the pressures of success. In this heartfelt conversation, Darren opens up about the unseen challenges he faced throughout his career, including his battle with depression and the difficulties of reconciling his public persona with his true self.

Together, Sarah and Darren explore his path to self-acceptance, the emotional toll of fame, and the inner demons he confronted along the way. They also dive into his newly released memoir, Unlovable, a raw and intimate look at his life beyond the music. This discussion highlights the courage it takes to live authentically and the healing power of embracing one’s truth. Darren’s story will inspire you to reflect on your own journey, face your inner struggles, and find freedom in being unapologetically yourself.

Unlovable, the new book from Darren Hayes is available here.
