Samuel Johnson - A Life of Vulnerability
Most of us first met actor and writer Samuel Johnson - and his silky voice - when he burst onto our screens over 20 years ago in the iconic show, The Secret Life of Us. Since then Sam’s experienced a lot of good times, but also some of the most challenging times any of us could imagine. In this Vulnerabilitea House, Sam chooses to answer the card, ‘What childhood challenges best prepared you for adulthood?’. And he not only explains to Hugh, Ryan and Josh why he feels so passionately about the importance of vulnerability, but he also goes on to be vulnerable in ways that we can all benefit from.

It’s Season 5 and oooooooooooh baby, are we excited!!! Yes we are. Why? Because everything’s new BUT everything’s also the same! Y’know? Like when your fish and chip shop does a big renovation and you’re really excited because the shop’s all spiffy and new, but you’re also really excited and relieved that they still have potato cakes and dim sims and prawn toast and all the stuff you liked last year. So yeah it’s kinda like that. Sort of.Anyway, hi. We missed you.

Customer Reviews
Chrissie Swan….brilliant!!!
Such a great podcast. But that latest Chrissie Swan ep absolutely blew me away.
At 38 and with two small children, I went “No Contact” with my emotionally abusive mum because I too was so sick and tired of “living the script” and trying so hard to make others comfortable and happy all the time.
It was so pleasing to hear Chrissie’s journey…the butter chicken comment has stayed with me. Loved it!!!
You need a better PA
No one cares what your the founder of. If you had done anything worthwhile we’d all know who you were. No need to explain why you exist in the intro blerb.
Slice that off your ‘about’ info. I was going to give this pod a crack but after reading that 🥱 😖 🙄 I’m already out. Yes you’re all still really important, it’s just no one wants to listen to you.
Go Chrissy
Loved this episode so much !! And to think she wasn't going to do the interview - she had such wonderful wisdom to share 🙏🙏🙏
