Ever feel like life is a bit…too much? Bestselling author and Mail Columnist Bryony Gordon will be delving into the messier parts of life. Listen to the brand new podcast series from Monday

Daily Mail columnist and mental health campaigner Bryony Gordon is set to host the Mail’s new podcast – and no taboo will go unaired. 

The Life of Bryony, launching on Monday, September 16, is a weekly heart-to-heart with the award-winning journalist and five-time Sunday Times best-selling author.

Bryony, 44, founder of Mental Health Mates and a marathon runner – who opts for underwear where others don sports kit – will welcome experts and guests including James Middleton, Adele Roberts, Kimberley Nixon and many more. 

While Adele and her wife Katie will discuss body positivity, James will reflect on the role pets can play in supporting out mental health.

Bryony, whose books ‘Mad Girl’ and ‘You Got This’ reached number one in the Sunday Times bestsellers list, said: ‘I’ve always believed that life is messy, but beautiful and completely ridiculous—and that’s what The Life of Bryony is all about.

‘It’s like sitting down with a friend, having a cuppa, and saying, “You know what? None of us have it all figured out, and that’s OK.” 

‘I’m so excited to dive into those big, awkward, and often hilarious conversations with people who get it.’

As the host of the podcast Mad World, Bryony has previously had heartfelt conversations with the likes of Prince Harry, Mel B and Nadiya Hussain.

She describes The Life of Bryony as, ‘my little corner of the world where we can talk openly about mental health, the weird bits of life, and everything in between.’

Listeners can expect to be entertained and enlightened by Bryony’s distinctive blend of sharp wit and unapologetic honesty as she tackles topics we’re not in the habit of talking openly about: anxiety, addiction and depression, for a start. 

During a weekly bonus episode, Bryony will put on her Agony Aunt hat and offer honest advice to listeners twilling to share their dilemmas. 

In 2016, Bryony founded Mental Health Mates, a peer support group that is now established across the country.

She was announced winner of the Mind Making A Difference Award for her work in changing the perception of mental health in the media the following year. 

Bryony also received the British Journalism Award for Campaign of the Year in 2017 and, two years later, she was made Mental Health Advocate of the Year at the Stylist Remarkable Women Awards. 

She was awarded the Journalist’s Charity Special Award for her writing about mental illness in 2020 and last year she was given the President’s Medal by the Royal College of Psychiatrists.

Bryony’s new book, ‘Mad Woman’, is the follow-up to ‘Mad Girl’, which is a Sunday Times best seller.

As a body positivity campaigner, you can expect to see her in her underwear in the window of John Lewis on Oxford Street, having joined forced with an ­ITV campaign called the Wow Project.
