Spencer Matthews has embraced his sense of adventure in order to explore his full potential.</p><br><p>In this chat with Fearne, Spencer gets into the shame he felt while he was drinking, why he’s now channelling his addictive nature into running instead, and how to avoid blaming everyone else for your own issues.
