RIZZLE KICKS: MY ANXIETY PARALYSED ME

About this episode

<p>After reaching the heights of success so quickly, it all came crumbling down for Rizzle Kicks when Harley’s anxiety left him incapable of performing. In an attempt to help him, Jordan realised he too had demons to conquer. Now, almost ten years later, Rizzle Kicks are back! - and I was lucky enough to chat to them about the journey from then to now…</p><br><p>Known as the quiet one, Harley opens up for the first time in a public space about his battles with his mental health, his OCD and how he found a way out of the dark space he was in that led to the break in the music. Jordan also discusses his journey from that time, and how, in retrospect, he can see how their instant success warped their sense of achievement. We also discuss the value of role models and finding motivation from a place of peace.</p><br><p>Harley and Jordan are such a wonderful example of friendship and the conversation was so honest and vulnerable - it reminded me of the important of sharing our experiences with one another</p><br><p>Rizzle Kicks have got a new album - you can find it here:&nbsp;<a href="https://rizzlekicks.tmstor.es/?lf=9c019ff825d8443192ddfe6e7be79e66" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">rizzlekicks.tmstor.es/?lf=9c019ff825d8443192ddfe6e7be79e66</a></p><br><p>And Jordan's book you can find here:&nbsp;<a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Avoidance-Drugs-Heartbreak-Jordan-Stephens-ebook/dp/B0CTMNQXP6" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.amazon.co.uk/Avoidance-Drugs-Heartbreak-Jordan-Stephens-ebook/dp/B0CTMNQXP6</a></p><br><p>If you enjoyed this episode, please click follow - we have so many great guests like this one, you won't want to miss out!</p><p>You can also follow us on Instagram and Tiktok @greatcompanypodcast</p><p><em>--</em></p><p>THE CREDITS</p><p>Exec Producer: Jemima Rathbone</p><p>Assistant Producer: Gurlina Heer</p><p>Video: Jake Ji</p><p>Social Media: Laura Coughlan</p><br><p>Great Company is an original podcast from JamPot&nbsp;</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
