    Giovanna Fletcher’s road to stage and screen, nightclub escapades and the power of podcasting

    In this final episode of series two, author, podcaster, and actor Giovanna Fletcher takes us on a tour of her old haunts in Essex. As well as her life as a performer, Giovanna opens up about her journey through various jobs, sharing stories she’s never revealed before. Our journey begins and ends in the small town of Ingatestone, winding through Chelmsford and Hylands Park, taking in places of huge significance including the local community centre, her old family home and school. Passing the local Catholic church, she reflects on her Italian heritage, and as we head toward Chelmsford, Giovanna candidly recounts her experiences with bullying and her transformative years at the Sylvia Young Theatre School; a place which later in life included an unforgettable marriage proposal experience. In Chelmsford, Giovanna tells amazing story about her favourite nightclub from her youth. We visit a place where McFly have performed, we discover the pros and cons to co-authoring with your husband and how writing books led to becoming a passionate podcaster.

  3. Dr Alex George’s road to embracing ADHD, mental health and life beyond Love Island

    OCT 9

    Dr Alex George’s road to embracing ADHD, mental health and life beyond Love Island

    Dr Alex George literally shows us his humble village routes around gorgeous Carmarthenshire in southern Wales and how his rural lifestyle and love of sport shaped him into the successful influencer he is today. Dr Alex explains how he harnessed the fame found on Love Island to become a mental health champion and the UK’s first Youth Mental Health Ambassador. Travelling around in a Land Rover Defender 90, Dr Alex takes us from the town of Carmarthen to several places including the remote setting of his old family home and former schools, one of which is now derelict and abandoned. Being diagnosed with ADHD just a few years ago, the rivers, valleys and locations evoke vivid memories and stories which leave Dr Alex wondering how different life would have been if he had been diagnosed with ADHD earlier.  He also opens up about the loss of his brother and how he’s using his experiences to benefit others. Ending at the local hospital - another significant and inspiring place for him - Dr Alex also shares with us his key ingredients to living a happy life.
