Andi Oliver on growing to love yourself - How to Fail with Elizabeth Day

Andi Oliver, TV presenter extraordinaire, beloved cook and restauranteur. On screen, you will see her presenting Great British Menu, the Sky Arts Book Club and an array of acclaimed documentaries, including The Caribbean with Andi and Miquita.</p> Andi came to How To Fail with a total willingness to be vulnerable. She discussed her failure to crack the music industry and the death of her beloved brother, Sean, at the age of 27. She talk about her failure, as she puts it, 'to stop berating myself for not being in a much slimmer body' which leads us into one of the most moving conversations I've ever had about the terrible cost of living with an eating disorder. Andi also discusses her experiences of racism growing up in rural England and how she grew to love herself.</p> <br /></p> How to Fail is an Elizabeth Day and Sony Music Entertainment Production.</p> Find more great podcasts from Sony Music Entertainment at sonymusic.com/podcasts</p> To bring your brand to life in this podcast, email <a href="mailto:podcastadsales@sonymusic.com">podcastadsales@sonymusic.com</a></p> Learn more about your ad choices.
