  • Kate Nash: Why OnlyFans Is Funding My Music Career!
    Apr 16 2026
    What if staying true to yourself cost you everything? In this episode of Begin Again, Kate Nash opens up about the reality of building a career in an industry that often tries to control, define, and silence you. From becoming a breakout star at 18 to being labelled, misunderstood, and written off, Kate shares what it really feels like to grow up in the public eye and fight to stay yourself. She speaks candidly about the music industry today, why it’s no longer sustainable for artists, and the difficult decisions she’s had to make to keep her career alive including starting an OnlyFans to fund her tours. For Kate, it’s not about controversy, it's about survival, independence, and refusing to play by rules that no longer work. This conversation also explores the emotional side of that fight. The pressure to be perfect, the anger that once fuelled her, and the conscious decision to move beyond it. Kate reflects on identity, feminism, and the power of women supporting each other in a world that often tries to pit them against one another. At its core, this is a story about resilience, creative freedom, and what it takes to take back control on your own terms. 🌟 Follow for more honest conversations about identity, growth, and beginning again.

  • Managing Anxiety: Begin Again Moments
    Apr 12 2026
    In this week’s Moments episode, we bring you two powerful clips from full Begin Again conversations exploring the reality of anxiety and how to navigate it. Fearne Cotton opens up about her personal experience with anxiety, reflecting on the period of her life that triggered it and how it continues to show up in unexpected ways. She shares the challenges of living with racing thoughts, disrupted sleep, and the pressure of environments that no longer feel safe, while also offering an honest look at the progress she’s made and the self-awareness she’s built along the way. Following that, mental health expert Owen O’Kane offers a grounded and reassuring perspective on anxiety, explaining why it’s a natural human response rather than something that defines us. He explores how anxiety can become something we rely on for protection, and shares practical ways to better understand and manage it without letting it take over. This is a Moments episode, featuring two impactful clips designed to give you insight, perspective, and practical takeaways in a short space of time. The full conversations with Fearne and Owen are available now wherever you get your podcasts, just search their names, or watch them here on YouTube: Fearne Cotton: https://youtu.be/XZHZ_Ltbv08 Owen O’Kane: https://youtu.be/fR2WPgWBtRM ✨ Access theBegin Again newsletter here: https://linkly.link/2g2xx Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Jason Donovan on The Price Of A Fame & How Fatherhood Changed Everything
    Apr 9 2026
    What does fame at 17 really do to you? In this episode of Begin Again, Jason Donovan opens up about growing up in the spotlight and what happens when success comes before you’ve had time to understand yourself. Thrust into fame as a teenager on Neighbours, Jason shares what it was like navigating a world where everyone thought they knew him, while he was still figuring out who he was. Behind the success, there was pressure, confusion, and a lack of guidance that led him down a path he struggled to control. He speaks candidly about the reality of those years; the partying, the expectations, and the feeling of having to navigate it all alone. At a time when mental health wasn’t openly talked about, Jason reflects on how difficult it was to process everything he was experiencing. But this is also a story of change. Jason shares how becoming a father became a turning point giving him purpose, grounding, and a reason to rebuild. He reflects on the lessons he’s learned, what he knows now that he didn’t then, and how he’s found a way to balance creativity, family, and peace. At its core, this is a conversation about fame, identity, and what it takes to take back control of your life no matter where you started. 🌟 Follow for more powerful conversations about resilience, growth, and beginning again.
