    Ella Purnell - ‘Therapy changed my life’

    TW: self-harm You might know Ella from her leading roles in the hit TV show ‘Yellowjackets’ or Amazon Prime’s ‘Fallout’. She’s been acting since she was a child (and is still absurdly young tbf) and bears the notable distinction of having played the younger versions of Keira Knightly, Margot Robbie and Angeline Jolie on-screen. What a thruple! At 28, she is wise beyond her years and on her way to stellar success. We talk about being realistic about perfectionism, how to stop caring about negative voices and how she overcame her own mental health struggles. ‘Sweatpea’ is out now on Sky Atlantic and Now TV. If you’ve been affected by any of the issues raised by our discussion on Trichotillomania (hair pulling disorder) or self-harm, you can find more resources here. Have something to share of your own?

    How to tackle imposter syndrome at work

    In this episode of Failing with Friends, I am flying solo because Lashana Lynch had a hefty day of press to complete. That’s the A-List life for you. But fear not! This gave me the chance to deep dive into some of your wonderful missives. Topics include the tenacious beast that is ‘imposter syndrome’ (we’ve all been there) and I reveal the last thing I’ve been truly impressed by (it’s not what you’d think). Plus the story of someone whose life partner ended their relationship - and how she eventually realised it was a blessing in disguise. Do you have something to share of your own?

  5. Lashana Lynch - ‘I didn’t know when I was auditioning that I was going to be 007’

    Lashana Lynch - ‘I didn’t know when I was auditioning that I was going to be 007’

    Lashana Lynch has had a pretty incredible few years: she was the first ever Black female agent with a licence to kill in the James Bond franchise, played a ferocious warrior (and performed her own stunts) in The Woman King, became part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and portrayed Mrs Honey in the movie adaptation of Matilda. Now she’s back in a Sky adaptation of The Day of the Jackal, co-starring Eddie Redmayne. It’s a long way from her working-class upbringing in Hammersmith, West London - a childhood she credits with teaching her resilience and grit…as well as the importance of dressing well. I loved chatting to Lashana - she’s so smart and strong and interesting. We discuss grief, racism, people-pleasing and her failure to stop procrastinating about procrastination. The Day of the Jackal premieres on Sky and NOW on Thursday 7th November 2024. Have something to share of your own? I'd love to hear from you!

    ‘Agony aunt columns? Love them’

    Dame Jilly Cooper loves an agony aunt column and that’s why she was thrilled to become one herself for a week and answer your questions and offer advice on your failures. We hear from someone trying to get to know themselves authentically (lots to unpack there), why failure can actually make you a better person and why writers are constantly concentrating on ‘the now’.

  7. Jilly Cooper - ‘What’s a dick pic?’

    Jilly Cooper - ‘What’s a dick pic?’

    Dame Jilly Cooper. What a legend. For the uninitiated (where have you been?) she’s a journalist and author most famous for her bestselling Rutshire Chronicle series which includes Riders, Polo and Rivals - the latter of which has now made into a hugely popular TV series starring David Tennant, Danny Dyer and Katherine Parkinson. In the past, Dame Jilly’s books have been unfairly dismissed as mere ‘bonkbusters’, charting the sex lives of the upper classes. But, as I discover, there’s much more to both her writing - and to her. We talk about her failures with technology, why she wishes she could throw more things away, as well as the terrifying time she lost an entire manuscript on the number 28 bus and had to rewrite it. Plus her experiences of interviewing Margaret Thatcher, her friendship with the Queen, her obsession with beautiful people and ‘macho men’ - and why she’d wholeheartedly recommend adoption to others. Thank you Dame Jilly. A total sport (but we knew that). You can watch Rivals on Disney+ now. Have something to share of your own? I'd love to hear from you!

    How to cope when your partner suffers from social anxiety

    In this episode of Failing with Friends, James joins us to discuss listener failures and questions with hilarious honesty.
