Samuel Johnson - A Life of Vulnerability

About this episode

<p>Most of us first met actor and writer Samuel Johnson - and his silky voice - when he burst onto our screens over 20 years ago in the iconic show, The Secret Life of Us. Since then Sam&rsquo;s experienced a lot of good times, but also some of the most challenging times any of us could imagine. <br><br>In this Vulnerabilitea House, Sam chooses to answer the card, &lsquo;What childhood challenges best prepared you for adulthood?&rsquo;. And he not only explains to Hugh, Ryan and Josh why he feels so passionately about the importance of vulnerability, but he also goes on to be vulnerable in ways that we can all benefit from. <br><br>Thank you, Sam.<br><br><br>To support Samuel's charity 'Love Your Sister' and purchase a copy of Dear Lover, please follow this link: <a href="http://bit.ly/3J0ZWM8">http://bit.ly/3J0ZWM8</a></p> <p>To donate directly to Love Your Sister, please follow this link: <a href="https://www.loveyoursister.org/">https://www.loveyoursister.org/</a><br><br><br><em data-stringify-type="italic">This episode contains frequent references to suicide.
