BRINGING YOU WIT AND WISDOM SINCE 2018
"There’s usually a sweet spot, about 20 minutes in, when the guest has forgotten they’re doing a podcast. I love doing it.” — Fearne
Fearne talks personal, spiritual and the big picture with her amazing guests as she reveals what happiness means to them. We’ve engaged in chat with some of the funniest, wisest and forward-thinking minds out there, bringing you wit and wisdom, since 2018. We plan to keep the conversation going. Happy listening.
this weeks guest: Chiwetel Ejiofor
Are you able to balance being resilient with being vulnerable? Actor Chiwetel Ejiofor has spent time figuring out when to keep moving forward, and when to let painful emotions wash over him.
In this chat with Fearne, Chiwetel reflects on how a childhood trauma has shaped his character – everything from his fierce ambition to his optimistic outlook. He also reveals the moments self-doubt has almost proved insurmountable (including when he first got the script for 12 Years A Slave...!)
Plus, is ‘acceptance’ of your past ever truly possible, or is the simple realisation that life WILL go on regardless good enough? And, do you worry you’ve let your own life pass in a blur? Chiwetel explains how he’s learnt to live in the present.
