Grief Is the Price We Pay for Love (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After 108 days away from the studio, François is back. But he comes back having said goodbye to Caesar, his dog and companion of 13 years. So this episode became a conversation about grief. Not how to fix it. Not how to “move on”. But what grief actually is, what exactly we’re grieving when someone we love is gone, and why the strangest, smallest things can suddenly become the things we miss most. François talks openly about the empty house, the routines that have disappeared, and even missing t
My Daughter Is Leaving Home. Am I Ready? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last time, I asked my daughter Emily how she felt about leaving home and moving to another country. This time, she turns the tables on me and asks “Pappa, are you afraid to let me go?” We talk about what it feels like when the child you’ve spent 20 years protecting suddenly doesn’t need you in quite the same way. About trust, worry, giving up control, letting them make their own mistakes, and that strange mixture of sadness, pride and excitement when they’re ready to leave. As I tell Emily, bein

Read excerpt
Watch on YouTube too: Can you give too much? And do we ever really give without expecting something back?

Their father-son conversation explores giving, purpose, altruism, generosity and the sometimes hidden cos
What Does It Really Mean to Be Strong? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What does it really mean to be strong? Our guest this week knows something about strength. Lene Alexandra Øien – LA – is a coach, author, former recording artist and, quite literally, a world champion bench presser. But this conversation isn't really about lifting weights. We explore the different faces of strength: pushing through versus knowing when to stop, human doing versus human being , vulnerability, burnout, boundaries and sustainable performance. LA also takes us inside her work with hi
She’s Terrified. She’s Doing It Anyway. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
My daughter Emily is about to leave home, move to Leeds and study songwriting and artist development. She’s choosing a notoriously uncertain career in music — and, in her own words, she’s terrified. So why do it? In this episode, we talk about courage, comfort, fear and the risks we take when we decide to pursue something we genuinely care about. Emily reflects on The Voice , releasing her own music, stepping outside her comfort zone, and why she doesn’t want to reach 90 wondering: “What would h
