Learning To Be Confident with Claudia Fogarty

“Being rejected was a horrible feeling”
Fresh out of the Love Island villa Scott Thomas sits down with Claudia Fogarty for a brand-new series of Learning As I Go.
Claudia talks openly for the first time about the journey that she’s been through with her body confidence and how this affected how she felt, going into Love Island.
They discuss how being single can help if you want to work on yourself, especially when it comes to beating a fear of rejection.
Scott and Claudia discuss what it's like to come from a famous family and how it feels when your siblings are well-known. Plus what’s life like when your dad is Superbike World Champion, Carl Fogarty?
Learning As I Go is back for another incredible series that you won't want to miss! The podcast is supported by British Triathlon and throughout series three, you’ll hear updates from Scott as he trains for his first triathlon in July.

Crying at work listening to this because the realization that every girl has a different body shape and it’s about being confident in your own skin is incredible.

[@tmc9402]

Claudia is incredible 🥺 If we heard even 10% of this on the show she would have went to the end! Great listen, love her ❤

[@leahcoombes9663]

[@leahcoombes9663]

He seems so caring towards her , she is just lovely in all ways they have such similar qualities and interests and things in their lives are similar they would make such a lush couple, had to explain my feelings why lol x

[@selenagomez14265]

This was my first season watching Love Island and when I saw Claudia walk into the challenge with those red wings she looked so gorgeous that I thought she was Maya’s co-host!

[@areebtirmizi277]

[@jadespina2174]

Really Enjoyed this podcast really loved Claudia in love island and didn’t even realise how she felt I feel the same at the minute with my body and trying to have a new healthy lifestyle so it’s really helped watching this even watching love island I said I wish I had Claudia’s body and just thinking how confident she was so it’s really good that your doing videos like this xxx

[@emmap5738]

[@shenelleramjewan2416]

Interesting conversation. I enjoyed it but didn't like the message that confidence is based on how you look.

[@175muffin]

You both needed to be closer to the mic. Great interview enjoyed it very much. xxx ❤❤

[@willjames5315]

Great podcast, really inspiring! Claudia was one of the most genuine girls in there and they definitely need to put more woman like her in the villa!

[@tallatmumtaz5731]

amazing

[@ScottThomas-LearningAsIGo]

🙏 Thank you for watching!

[@victorwhite7822]

That's what I've done come out of a horrible relationship and I'm working on myself anf it'd been great just need to put weight on x

[@athinagioka6012]

My favourite girl!!!😍

[@ScottThomas-LearningAsIGo]

Yes! 🙏

[@ads13924]

Listening to someone grapple with their self-esteem is hard. It sounds like she is in the middle of a cycle that isn't healthy for her. She has a healthy body but the mind hasn't caught up. Unfortunately she is in a world where beauty is everything. She is equally as beautiful as her sister and this is sad to hear someone talk this way. She was never large, and for her family to comment on her weight isn't nice. Yes, we want people to be healthy but I don't think that Claudia is the face of health by what she is saying about her guilt. She looks stunning, she also looked stunning when she was larger. I suggest she unfollows anyone who makes her feel bad about her body and only follow body positive accounts. She was one of my faves, a total girls girls. Well done being a boss in the love island villa x

[@divvy_witch1593]

I think she may of had a gastric band or some sort of weight loss procedure. She doesn’t seem to of dealt with the actual issues.

[@victorwhite7822]

I'm trying to put it on but can't any advice plz

[@victorwhite7822]

This is why I think love island needs to change they need to have all shapes sizes snd people with for example like tash snd Ron Ron is blind in one eye sbd tash was death in one ear I believe there needs to be more then just preety skinny girls going in that villa coz people that watch it will thing oh god why can't anyone go I'n 8t just gose to show they do pick and choose coz one girl in there got no air time at all Coz they didn't think she was that attractive so wrong x❤

[@victorwhite7822]

I'm Christina and I've not long come out of a 3 year vilonte relationships and hid mum would say but you take pics and wear clothes that show my body so I couldn't feel bad inmyself and not like body i said you can stil do all that snd nit like feel confident in yourself I didn't love myself at all I need to put weight on as I'm size 8 ide like to be size 10 I'm working now and I'm single snd working on myself slowly getting there ide live to do make up to ❤so just coz we wear make up take pics dose not mean we love ourselves x

[@victorwhite7822]

Omg you sound like your brothers lol and I'm trying to put weight on it'd hard I'm size 8 x

[@chevonneclay1277]

I get that he’s trying to be nice but the constant gushing over Claudia here makes him seem unconfident with his role. Like, as an interviewer; compliment people but don’t merge into sleazy with it Other than that, I enjoyed this podcast ❤

[@figuringitoutttt]

you literally bought the most insecure person on a podcast to talk about being confident....what

[@gm9228]

shut up try going on love island where millions of people are watching your every move that takes ALOT of confidence.

[@MissEverythingPretty]

But that’s a journey which a lot of girls can actually relate to! It’s tough getting on the wave length of confidence from someone who it comes naturally to IMO :)

[@maya9236]

learning* to be confident

[@arely8075]

Shes literally letting you into her actual thought process about why she’s insecure. Men are r word Fr

[@marialittle8097]

that’s why the title says LEARNING😊
