Categorías:
Welcome to the 'Are We Nearly WHERE Yet' mini series! It's SO great to be back and bringing you even more brilliant guests filled to the brim with stories, anecdotes, colossal failures and mishaps in order to get you through your twenties decade. This week it is my PLEASURE to be introducing you to journalist, presenter, podcaster and all round ICON... JOSH SMITH!! I know what you’re all thinking… how does one go about interviewing the ultimate interviewer?! It’s pretty apparent that the best interview with Josh would probably be one he would host himself, sadly we don’t have that luxury today, so it’s going to be me who’ll be taking the ‘reigns’ on this one... Growing up in Cambridgeshire, Josh never really felt like he fitted in. He suffered with social anxiety, OCD and felt that he lacked a sense of identity in his tiny sub-urban village. It was actually when Josh moved to London in his early twenties that he really started to discover who he was. Able to finally explore his sexuality, he was inundated with the freedom and opportunity this city gave him; soaking up the parties, people and places. With an initial dream of conquering the fashion journalist world, Josh encountered exciting opportunities and multiple rejections before landing a job at Glamour UK where he is now contributing editor.Throughout the decade, Josh has gone on to interview some of the biggest stars in the world, from Kylie Jenner and Reece Whitherspoon to Victoria Beckham and Oprah Winfrey. A hugely successful journalist and interviewer, he creates a safe space for his guests to open up while balancing hilarious anecdotes with deeper philosophical and personal conversations surrounding mental health, empowerment and stepping into your true authentic self. In a society so consumed with speaking out and turning up the volume, Josh reminds us all of the importance of listening and how it really can be our greatest superpower.Josh is also an ambassador for children’s mental health charity Place2Be and host of the Reign with Josh Smith Podcast, which is just as uplifting, unfiltered and utterly addictive as he is.
