About this episode

<p>The concept of a mid-life crisis has become a funny cliché, and that’s what Christian O’Connell jokingly told people he was having when he left his successful radio career in the UK to start a new life in Australia in 2018. The truth was that he had had what he now recognises as a break down, and needed to find adventure and joy as an adult to reignite the fire in his belly.</p><br><p>In this chat, Fearne and Christian share their experiences of having panic attacks, and compare notes on how they both use distraction techniques to avoid confronting difficult realities.</p><br><p>Christian’s book, No One Listens To Your Dad’s Show, is out now.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
