  • Presenter, actor and singer Denise Van Outen tends to throw herself into work, keeping busy with exciting professional opportunities, to distract from any pain.
    Do you find yourself trying to find a distraction when going through something difficult? 💛
    In this chat with Fearne, Denise talks about how she’s learnt to accept being alone after heartbreak and acknowledge the stillness without constantly trying to fill the void. Close friends Fearne and Denise also share their experiences of raising blended families and chat about how much of your heartbreak - or any other pain - you should share with your kids.
    Denise’s book, ‘A Bit of Me: From Basildon to Broadway, and Back’, is available to buy now.

      I’m trying to use distraction less, especially for my anxiety and panic attacks. It provides short term relief but you really have to go through the motions to really move on from something. Everything I tried to suppress would always come out sometime somewhere and often when things were going well! X

      I fell onto these podcasts trying to find a review for Will Young's book and this is the second one I have watched straight through in three days. I guess you could say these are my distraction at the moment and so much better than some of the more destructive distractions I have had in the past and they offer me hope, so thank you. I didn't expect to relate to Denise but we have both had similar ways of dealing with things and after decades of needing therapy and being diagnosed as having an urgent need in both 2009 and 2013 think it's the way to go...

    Fab interview. Just a wee note on microphone and camera position, Den's mike blocks the view of her mouth which makes it difficult for people with hearing impairment and lip read. 💋

    As a single guy at 43 working abroad 67% of the year I relate totally on all the aspects of life covered by your fantastic podcast. Thank you especially right now for delivering such a relevant educational but enjoyable chat which I can see gives perhaps support to all around to those who might not necessarily through one thing or another are unable to have these type of conversations with friends /family or anyone. Great job and am pleased for you Ferne finding a real niche in the market and a platform of which is healthy for you to express your personality and establish career stability without direction from a tv influence. 👍😊

    I think keeping ourselves busy to distract us from our pain , doesn’t heal the pain . It’s like a form of medication and as we know medication doesn’t always help with emotional pain and eventually have to face it and if we don’t face it we end up either suffering further with depression,anxiety then heading to the doctors for medicinal treatment.

    Learning of Bertrand Russell he buried himself in studies. A quote from John Dewey was “We do not learn from experience... we learn from reflecting on experience.”

    You should always show your children vulnerability, otherwise they will think they should never show it .

      shouldn't always believe what you read and hear or see. I always take it with a pinch of salt. There's no need to take it seriously 😊

      @olivegrovesandgrapevinessp7293 День назад +1

      Or maybe the men can’t keep her! She has been set high standards by her parents and I’m sure doesn’t tolerate certain behaviours.
