Holly Willoughby on Finding Herself Again After Feeling Lost | Happy Place Podcast

[@fearnecotton]

What do you think of this week's episode with Holly? Is there anything that particularly resonated with you?

[@RhiannonMurphy]

That was lovely. Such a calming chat about a serious subject. I love the dynamic between you two. I found this really comforting without being too heavy or overly “pleasant” x

[@wendynewbrook7360]

Two beautiful inspirational ladies 💞💞

[@rosiefrisbymorrell]

Thank you for sharing. I think it's amazing that you Fearne and Holly are showing your vulnerability. It's inspiring and definitely helps people. Any one who complains are not connected with themselves and their full responsibility of their lives. Thank you for sharing.

[@paulculshaw4779]

It's mad to hear these two QUEENS of LIVE television which equals unpredictability - dig deep on how they feel. Glorious ladies! Round of applause!

[@ladybancroft2488]

As lovely and positive as this comes across, I do feel quite fed up and exhausted at celebrities constantly talking about their struggles in life, writing books about it and coming across as overcoming difficulties as though their on par with REAL folk. Celebrities are human too and are not exempt from lifes struggles, HOWEVER, they have the finances to go to rehab, see specialists when needed and not have to wait, they can afford to go on holidays, buy expensive treats, spas and so much more that US real folk have not got at our disposal. These ladies need a few months experiencing real life in the real world with no help, support, finances and ill health, on a waiting list for months, years to see a specialist. You ladies are extremely privileged and are living an incredible life in comparison to real people who are seriously struggling and have nothing and no one to help them.

[@joanne4758]

Lady Bancrfot - I really acknowledge what you are putting out there. I don't mean it as a personal attack on Holly - she's very lovely. We have a reasonable health system here - but yea - their world is quite different to mine. I wish you all the very best (from Oceania)

[@arnicepernice8656]

I agree. I do not know why this book will help anyone. All celebrities are writing the same finding myself or misery memoires. This lady is indeed hugely privileged and has access to the best. It’s not actually that helpful. Whilst I’m sorry about her struggles who needs to hear it

[@janeball7199]

Exactly this!..I wonder if anyone would buy my book ..suffered mental health issues since 16..my husband of 15 years had an affair and left me to bring my two lads up single handedly ,had two cleaning jobs where I had to take my kids to work with me,I then had a heart attack and can no longer work and now my landlord as decided to give me two months to get out of the home I've lived in 25 years as he wants to sell up...that's real life Holly !!..gets me so angry that these folk feel a little lost yet will make thousands by writing a book about it!!

[@arnicepernice8656]

@@janeball7199 oh no. I am so sorry to hear this. Am hoping.....you have other family to support you. Fear of losing your home is just so frightening and exhausting too. I am sending you courage and hope .

[@anni1012]

@cisco kid … and her really annoying laugh 😂…

[@edie8931]

i’m jealous of holly’s ability to let things go and not “drag” past regrets with her, but i do really relate to fearne’s struggles with it - it’s not that easy to just forget about it or ignore it, if it is for you then that’s great but remember that not everyone is the same

[@tanyag9247]

This is the first time I’ve listened to Fearne’s podcast and I couldn’t help but feel that these two were having entirely separate conversations at certain points. You can tell that they’re very different people and that Fearne is ideas and existentialism whereas Holly is ordered practicality. I think both approaches appeal to different personalities but I felt as though Fearne was lightyears ahead in terms of openness and honesty, so I felt she had much clearer points, but that’s probably because she has been doing this for some time now.

[@AmyFMcCready]

I felt the exact same!

[@staceymurphy9779]

I couldn't agree more! I also felt that, although they are friends, there was an ever so slight sense of tension between them? It's like Holly has always been that one friend who Fearne thinks is "perfect" and Holly is only just realising that perhaps she isn't perfect after all, but Fearne has already had to work on herself for years because she feels so 'imperfect' compared to others (e.g. Holly). There's definitely a really unusual vibe between them.

[@Mayaxxxxxx]

Holly is just starting her enlightened journey…

[@edie8931]

@@staceymurphy9779 i think it’s because fearne has struggled with depression and anxiety among other mental health issues and holly doesn’t seem to fully understand that fearne can’t just let things go or just not care about what other people think, it might be easy for holly to shut it out but it massively affects fearne, and i also think holly just wants her friend to be happy

[@Ashley-pl5wr]

I will never understand why people hate on Holly when she seems like such a lovely, sweet and insightful person. People got so distracted by her beauty and attractiveness that they’ve refused to look at her as a person and that’s sad cause she really does seem so lovely. Loved this chat and this insight into who Holly is, related so much to her when she spoke about struggling to having to control things and overanalyzing. Also loved the bit about her talking about not dragging regrets etc behind you. Holly really is incredible, miss seeing her on telly so much and also miss seeing these two together❤

[@rebeccadorkins5483]

Growing old really is a privilege. I know this from living with cancer & having growing old removed. Fearne some chats with those classed as medically terminal (such as Kris) would be useful but although your and Holly's lives are so different to mine I find this podcast talk so helpful. Thank you.

[@chrismchale6759]

Fame and fortune can be very damaging to the soul well done fearne and holly for being brave enough to reconnect with your soul journey ....nature and playfulness is the way for me ....with love and gratitude❤

[@LemonJelly360]

I absolutely adore Happy Place, it is such a fabulous podcast. I am a huge believer in being open and transparent and the podcast is this in spades, whilst still ensuring each guest (& Fearne) feel at ease with how much they talk about. Holly was a great guest, I particularly liked the part regarding your checklist in life and what to do once you've accomplished the tasks in front of you.

[@joshb7326]

Still remember when you guys did CBBC together. I used to watch on Saturday morning in bed with Hot chocolate.

[@imreallydead.23]

And me lol the good old days of being a kid

[@TheAbibradley]

Didn’t know how much I needed this until I watched. Thank you to both of you for being so open💖

[@amayah4391]

I think Holly and Fearne are on different wave lengths. I think I identify more with Fearne but I’m grateful to have friends like Holly who see things differently. I think the inner work Fearne has done (and I am doing) makes her more in touch with herself but I have a habit of looking at people like Holly and thinking I wish I felt like that *but*

[@martincroker490]

Ferne you should get holly back on now...i bet holly wouldnt of seen her recent predicament in her wildest dreams.. I hope holly still feels blessed...wealth, health and family. It might be a blessing in the long run.

[@lizzyx4776]

Omg I can totally relate to chasing dream: house, husband,kids, good job.... then what? Totally there, it's such a lonely place. Thanks gals you've inspired me. Powerful

[@lisab9734]

Got to be honest… not a fan of Holly’s tv persona, but so glad I’ve watched this as I love everything she said. I hope I look at her differently from now on

[@audrajeanelliott-davies4681]

Great conversation, I really enjoyed it. Mt pain seems to bleed out at random times to various individuals and groups . It is not planned or even expected. The after result is some relief and some guilt for being heavy and low rather than joyful and light hearted. Sending love and self healing.

[@lisacatchpole8741]

Selling candles for £65... Basically just burning money. How can that be ok?!

[@karencurtis2697]

I'm so happy I found this the magic of KZbin sent this to me . Very interesting chat, listening to two girls I've grown older with , talking about important feelings and ways of building and breaking down walls . I can't imagine being in the public eye in any way, I manage to go to my local leisure centre 3 times a week to swim it's everything to me My release valve and it's taken me nearly 8 years to get this far . Being made to feel guilty for my anxiety and fear of going out for so long , I'm finally at the point I can say no and not worry. I still follow my no with a reason for saying no ...... but If people don't except my reason I leave it as there problem not mine. Looking forward to listening to more. Stay safe stay well xx

[@Sinsearach]

Ah how often do i need to remind myself to not read the comments 😅 it's funny bc you were talking bout blocking out "the noise" and coming back to your OWN beliefs when we are inundated with information and various opinions. So true, why it's important to get a hold on our screen time. It can be hard to tune into one's own inner voice. Thanks for the interesting conversation. Nice to see more well-known people are being more vulnerable in the public eye. It's important, tbh. It's the human condition that none of us *really* know what we're doing. 🤣@People moaning.. There are people of various backgrounds making content online.. podcasts, insta vlogs etc. You get to choose who you follow and what you consume. Click on something that looks like you would enjoy it, next time.. just a tip 😉

[@Goodvibes-qu2zz]

I am surprised to see the comments here….Celebrities are humans….I noticed people say this and then slam them for sharing difficulties with mental health!! I don’t think there is supposed to be a comparison with anything….someone bravely sharing their story so less people feel alone. These comments are exactly what make mental health worse as far as I have seen over the years. Very unkind 😔

[@georginalewis6153]

I think Holly will leave This Morning soon - she is trying to be like the next Alexa Chung lol. She lost weight, started dressing edgy, and is trying to sell really expensive items under her own brand name - like the £65 candle!!!!! 🤯

[@georginalewis6153]

@Harry Philby but her audience won't buy her £65 candles!!! 😂 Most This Morning viewers are either on Universal Credit which has just been cut, stay at home mothers or on maternity leave - they can't relate to her in anyway now!

I think Holly as totally changed since becoming a big TV celeb....she become greedy and above herself and her latest antics as proved this.she isn't the perfect Polly your listeners think...I remember her having a jibe about Lisa( ants s wife ) for keeping photos up of Ant on twitter after they've split up..Hollys had a perfect life and just stands by her TV celebs ,not even thinking how Lisa must of been feeling.i think she now needs to leave this morning and spend some real time on reflection instead of on how to make more money
