About this episode

On this episode of The Mid.Point, Gabby is joined by Model and TV and radio presenter Lisa Snowdon.

 

Lisa got spotted by a talent scout at aged just 19, and quickly became one of the UK’s top models, known for high fashion covers such as Vogue, and beauty adverts too. Lisa’s move into TV was in 2006, when she was announced as the Head Judge of ‘Britain’s Next Top Model’. 


In 2008, she appeared on Strictly Come Dancing - the same year she began co-hosting the Capital London Breakfast Show (initially with Jonny Vaughn, and later with Dave Berry). She finished her early morning stint in 2015. On top of all the TV and modelling work she does, Lisa also finds time to be an Ambassador for Breast Cancer Care and The Meningitis Trust.


Lisa is very honest and open about her menopause and the challenges she's had with HRT. She also talks about the imposter syndrome she has faced and overcome in her career, the early days of modelling and the gratitude she feels now, for how her life has turned out.


We hope you enjoy the chat!
