BITESIZE: Kevin Clifton - Letting Go

Simon Mundie
About this episode

The power of letting go of the need for a specific outcome to go your way.

We are halfways through the Strictly Come Dancing season 2023, so what better time than now to revisit my conversation with glitterball favourite and former Strictly champion Kevin Clifton. Kevin was runner up on four occasions while on the show, which triggered some of his old competitive wounds, before finally lifting the trophy with his now wife Stacey Dooley. How? Clearly the chemistry didn't hurt - but nor did his change in outlook and willingness to surrender rather than feel the need to achieve a specific outcome
