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.

RETROGRADE, SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own businesses, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is obviously monetarily endorsed. As usual, sponsorships do not change my opinions nor my honesty, but I will always disclaim to make sure motives are clear 😊

Grace Beverley hosts the Working Hard with Grace Beverley podcast, a series that moves far beyond standard productivity tips or generic business advice. Here, conversations explore the nuanced and often unconventional paths to achievement across a wide spectrum of life. You’ll hear from a diverse array of guests, including housing campaigners, seasoned investors, and sex experts, each sharing the specific challenges and insights from their unique fields. These discussions naturally avoid easy answers, instead delving into the real work, the personal philosophies, and the redefined metrics of success that drive these individuals. The podcast sits at an interesting crossroads of business, health, fitness, and self-improvement, reflecting Grace’s own multifaceted approach to work and life. Listening feels like gaining access to a series of candid, private mentorships, where the lessons learned are as much about personal resilience and perspective as they are about professional strategy. It’s a space for anyone curious about the many forms that hard work and fulfillment can take, offering stories that challenge the typical rhetoric and inspire a broader, more personal definition of what it means to truly succeed.
