I love this podcast fearne, it's more important than ever to discuss and share our mental health. I also avoid watching the news, if I need to know anything important such as rules and regulation changes I just ask a friend! I find it way too frustrating listening and watching people disagree and argue over this pandemic when there's nothing I can do to help apart from be there for those around me and take care of myself. Gardening and long walks with friends is my thing but now winter is coming I have felt it alot harder to stay positive so I have lots of litlle projects to do. For example, I'm making an epoxy resin table right now, if it wasn't for lock down I probably would never have done something that i enjoy so much. Finding just little things to stay positive about is better than nothing at all I guess
Great episode, I've learned a lot from both you. Thank you for taking the time to be so honest, I can imagine it being very difficult for people who are always in the public eye. I particularly liked your message on being prepared that it will never truly change but you have to make the best of it. Maybe now I will spend less time worrying and actually getting things done!
I dont gowe out very rarely as it gives me very bad anxiety but i hope i will come over it at somepoint thanks guys.
To anyone who's never understood introverts, please listen to this podcast. Also, this is a great and honest conversation about mental health, coping mechanisms, fame, happiness and the power of being content! Thanks a lot Fearne
"I am useles at retaining my energy for me." Brilliantly said, for me this is the crux of introversion.
Robbie speaks very openly & eloquently about his past and it seems he still needs strategies to stop him going back which I think many people can relate to. Fearne, I’m a hermit too! Hate crowds & I’m not a “social gatherings” person. Very much a homebird & very content with my own company. I used to fight against it to fit in but in my 30’s I decided it was time to honour myself. Some people never got it but it works for me. Be true to yourself is one of the most important lessons I’ve learnt. Great podcast!
Having the feeling of love in the heart space, physically, is so rare and fleeting that we often turn to social recklessness in a desperate attempt to FEEL something. Thus destroying the ability to feel love even more. There are entities which take advantage of the weakened state of the human, making a comeback very very difficult. Love is an exercise that needs to be practiced and strengthened.
Now that was a real discussion, am now a fan of Fearne Cotton as well.
Thank you so much for this. It was such a privilege listening to you both and really made me feel better x
Robbie absolutely wonderful talented person ever 💯🤩🗣
Hurrah!
This was a brilliant podcast/ interview. I’m a person who suffers with both anxiety and depression, it cost me my marriage and not being around my children everyday (which I’m still struggling to deal with) doesn’t help . I am lucky that myself and the mother to my children are still very close and can still see my children whenever possible but like Robbie and Fearne said it doesn’t stop these feelings and thoughts but I loved how they helped us here on how to try to deal with them. Really positive watch and I am thankful ✌️
💞💝💞
I wasn't sure I would like this particular one but it was so great to hear honest no holds barred conversation. Being so open about this subject can only happen after a lot of work. It really helped me whilst I sit and struggle with my studio work today after a year of newly experienced anxiety attacks. Thank you :)
This was one of my favourite so far.
Thank you Fearne for bringing mental health to the forefront. It’s taken me many years to be ok with the fact that I struggle with my mental health. I’ve fought it for so long instead of trying to understand why I feel the way that I feel, embracing it and being ok with myself. I’m my harshest critic, I never give myself a break. Listening to Robbie and yourself really helped me this morning so thank you 🙏
just okay is the miracle, yes!
Got a lot in common with him as an introvert and the addiction issues I have Love the honesty you’ll help a lot of people!
Fern u are Amazing interviewer thank u so much Robbie & Fern PURE magic ❤️Woozers. Have blessed beautiful day ❤️❤️
I relate so much to everything they're saying 👏
I have loved both of you for such aling time. My children have grown up watching you both. It has been wonderful to see how you have both evolved.
Wishing you both an even more fruitful life.
Brilliant discussion. 🙏❤️❤️❤️
Hi Fearne, love your smile and sorry to hear about your panic attacks. I have experienced them myself and they can be extremely frightening. Really liked this podcast and the one with Priyanka. What Robbie said about contentment was spot on, as everything else is just an illusion and money, fame, status etc cannot buy happiness as the Soul just longs for its Creator
Watching this is so worth my time. Podcasts such as this that tackle mental health give powerful and useful insights coming from the man himself who has been there, done that. More power to you Robbie Williams, please keep on creating beautiful music. You gave me so many "run to" songs. Thank you!
I'm not really into Robbie's music but have loved him as a person since I watched him host The Big Breakfast many many years ago. I love listening to him talk n there are strong parallels between our lives. He's a great lad n deserve all the success he's had.
Seeing him host the big breakfast was how I became a fan. But I also think he has some great songs. I don’t get how he never conquered America.
Love your pink microphone and head set Fearne. One of my fave podcasts ever, adore you and Robbie Williams. Great interview, such an intelligent authentic conversation. There is nothing wrong with being an introvert personality, you can still communicate and socialize with others just as beautifully. 🤍 🎙️ 🧠🎧
Thank you to both of you.
Loved this. 👍 Thank you both so much. 💙🌹💕
Wow, just listened today, 4th Nov 2022. Thanks so much for this episode. Can relate to this SO much.
Great to hear Robbie talk honestly about his feelings. He's come a long way on his journey. I can relate to everything you're both saying after having my own journey of isolation and then therapy. Having the self awareness and just being content with life is the key. An old cliche, but the answers are all inside us. It takes years to realize that, then when we do, it takes years to work out what they are!! Thankyou for sharing this 💕
Fantastic talk, imm feeling better just listening to this, it’s therapeutic thank you 🙏🏻
Well done both of you for being so honest.
This made me feel better today
Really enjoyed that 🤙
It is hard to start meditation if you have anxiety. Setting an alarm for 10 or 20 min of breathing meditation helps. That way you know you can get back to what you were doing.
So many great insights
I love these videos, well done Fearne🇬🇧
This was fantastic and made me feel better about myself and I learnt so much. And I have subbed
Brilliant podcast 🙏🙏thank you
Really good 👏🏼
Yes definitely have seen how we seek approval and try to validate who we are. It's quite revealing to hear that "celebrities" like both of you, feel that same insecurity. We need to know that we are enough and accept ourselves for who we are is crucial for our mental health. Yes, we're children raising children. Our parents passed on their $#%& and we pass on our $#%&. Seeing it that clearly is an amazing realisation 💕
He's depressed with unimaginable wealth and millions of fans. There's not much hope for the rest of us!
Proves money doesn't always make you happy.
On the contrary. There's a LOT of hope, as money clearly isn't the secret to happiness 😊
@@naturesrhythm8506It’s your relationships with yourself and other people. But money can help with those.
Wonderful raw honest discussion. Beautiful souls both of you. Prioritise the self care ❤
Fame teaches you the pleasures of annanimity. Not having to Deal with all the AHoles is very liberating.
And yes time spent raising / caring loving your own kids is priceless !!💝
All parents are just winging it if the truth be known .
@27:20 you are far from a kids presenter. You were extremely grown up Fearne doing a job like that at a young age. You've clearly evolved
😮
Hezký
What about if ypu want to meet someone?

Cheer up Robbie...
In case you're not aware that is the absolutely worst thing you can say to someone who suffers from anxiety/depression.
@@ksc743 maybe it was a 'dark joke'. Embrace the darkness.
@@roddo1955 he should cheer up he unpays taxes and is worth millions of karhowbars
Its not always that simple
@@roddo1955 there's enough 'darkness.' Don't need more.
