FEARNE COTTON: A chat with the British ‘It’ girl’ about the struggle for happiness

FEARNE COTTON: A chat with the British ‘It’ girl’ about the struggle for happiness

Today we travel to the UK to chat with one of my favourite representatives of humanity. Fearne Cotton is British radio and TV royalty. She began her career age 15 as host of The Disney Club after winning some local competition…and then spent the next 25 years broadcasting to the nation, everything from Top of the Pops, BBC radio1 and 2, the Golden Globes, BAFTAS and a bunch of Royal family things.
She's published 10 chart-topping books, including kids mental health books, is on The Prince's Trust, has a 3.4 million following on Instagram and has a podcast, Happy Place, that's had more than 40 million downloads.

But I know Fearne only as a friend…and a social media pen pal type friend at that. We send VMs on WhatsApp late at night when we can't sleep and when we're troubled, and we talk about life and humans…not so much our lives…but Big Life.

Fearne has just put out a book about living honestly and so I thought it might be a good time to have one of the chats we have at lonely hours but in a visual volley out in the open with you lot.

Like me, Fearne is on that constant journey of managing her anxiety and the complexities of life. Which is why I trust her – she doesn't purport to have arrived. Oh, and FYI, in this chat we talk about EMDR, which is a type of therapy Fearne and I have both used.
