    What Lucinda 'Froomes' Price Knows About Hunger

    We've all faced those biting comments about our looks or how we act, and we often let those words affect us, even though they shouldn’t. Lucinda Price, AKA Froomes, grew up convinced that to fit in with the 'right' crowd, she had to be hot. Back then, certain traits were seen as the ultimate beauty standard, leading her to believe she had to change parts of herself to be accepted. In this episode, Froomes—who’s an author, comedian, broadcaster, and internet personality—sits down with Clare to chat about the unrealistic beauty standards we’ve all faced and how they’ve affected her and so many other women. This episode isn’t just about happiness, it’s also about self-acceptance and navigating the challenges that come with it. So, after working to overcome so much and be comfortable in her own skin, is Froomes happy? Let’s find out.

    What Tim Minchin Knows About Saying The Quiet Part Out Loud

    This is the first But Are You Happy interview that made Clare a little nervous...in a good way. Because saying the quiet part out loud can be risky...but it's also where great ideas are born, where creativity flourishes, and where authenticity lives: all things that matter a lot to Tim Minchin. In this conversation, we get a glimpse of a different side of Tim as he reflects on the highs and lows of his success. He talks about why compliments don’t sit well with him, the fakery in the performance industry, and the dehumanisation that comes with internet pile-ons. He and Clare also explore the struggle of deciding whether to speak your mind or keep quiet. So, has Tim Minchin found happiness? You'll have to listen to find out.
