Maisie Williams: The Painful Past Of A Game Of Thrones Star

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett

Maisie Williams is one of the biggest actors in the world today. One of the breakout stars of Game of Thrones, Maisie hasn’t known a normal life since she was 11 years old when she was cast in the biggest tv show in the world.

In this pathfinding and boundary-breaking conversation, Maisie reveals for the first time just how hard her start in life was. Even close to home, she had to overcome those who didn’t believe in her, and has had to battle through mental health issues ever since.

Few journeys we’ve seen of people being able to define and find meaning in their own life despite those who doubt them are as inspiring as the one we’ve seen with Maisie. We are so proud of Maisie for bringing courage and honesty to the table today. It’s nothing less than the norm for her, because she’s shown courage and honesty all her life.
