How Trinny Woodall deals with rejection:...

Fearne Cotton
About this episode

Are you more confident in your work life than in your personal life? Or vice versa? Entrepreneur and beauty & fashion icon Trinny Woodall is aware of where she needs to build her own self-worth.


In this chat, Fearne and Trinny explore everything that comes with being the founder and CEO of Trinny London, being brazen enough to back your own ideas to women earning more than their male partners.


Plus, Trinny is candid about her business endeavours that went pretty sideways, and explains how to be direct in asking for feedback without fear of rejection.


Trinny is also open about the huge moments that changed her life, including her time in rehab and dealing with grief.


CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains frank chat about suicide, so do take care while listening.
