TODAY'S EPISODE

Today’s guest is someone whose voice has accompanied so many of us through the highs and lows of life, through our teens, and now our careers. I’m speaking to broadcaster, author, and Happy Place founder, Fearne Cotton.

From landing her first presenting job at 15 to blowing up and being on every TV screen, Fearne’s career has been defined by energy, openness, and a constant willingness to evolve and take on the next project. But despite her huge success, she’s been on her own journey with identity, burnout, and figuring out who she is when the job title fades away, figuring out what success actually means to her.

As you know this podcast is about having conversations in a frank, open, way, that we don’t actually see that often, and this episode was exactly that. This episode is for anyone who feels like their self worth is tied to their career. Fearne speaks so openly about how she unhooked her self-worth from her work, why setting boundaries has been one of her biggest lessons, and what she’s learned about letting go of expectations.
