About this deal

We need truth talkers more than we ever have right now. Wild, bold, connected truth talkers. Fearne takes our hand and shows us how to be one by treading the wild, vulnerable path first.' Sarah Wilson, author of First, We Make the Beast Beautiful As she considered what silence would mean, Fearne began to think about other times her voice had gone unheard – as a young woman, as ‘just the talent’, as the foil to louder, more dominant figures. She found herself wondering, at what point do we internalise this message, and start silencing ourselves? When do we swallow down our authentic words to become pleasers and compromisers at the cost of our own happiness or wellbeing? Speak Your Truth dives into all the ways we learn to stay quiet for the wrong reasons, and explores how to find your voice, assert yourself and speak out with confidence. In this book Cotton covers a wide range of topics relating to personality, friendship and growth (Instinctive communicating, Inauthenticity, Engaging with experiences) and it was nearly a 5* book that is strong on messages, anecdotes and life learned lessons until… Cotton’s hugely popular podcast, Happy Place, was launched in 2018. She has been a TV and radio presenter for almost 25 years. She found herself wondering, at what point do we internalise this message, and start silencing ourselves?

We need truth talkers more than we ever have right now. Wild, bold, connected truth talkers. Fearne takes our hand and shows us how to be one by treading the wild, vulnerable path first.’Sarah Wilson, author of First, We Make the Beast Beautiful Fearne Cotton's voice is familiar to millions, whether that's through television, radio or on her hugely successful Happy Place podcast. Her voice is her career, her livelihood and the way she communicates with her audience and her loved ones. So, when Fearne's doctor told her she was at risk of needing a throat operation followed by two weeks of being unable to speak, she found herself facing a period of unexpected contemplation. Her warmth, natural interview skills and ability to make presenting live TV seem effortless and has given her the opportunity to present a variety of shows over the years.Listening to #SpeakYourTruth as Fearne reads, is like hanging out with a friend and having one of those BIG conversations. The sweeping reassurance & the relief that what you think is happening only in your head, is also occurring in the head of someone else. I am not a particular fan of Fearne Cotton but I found this audiobook on my library app and it looked interesting. As she considered what silence would mean, Fearne began to think about other times her voice had gone unheard - as a young woman, as 'just the talent', as the foil to louder, more dominant figures.

We hit the 2/3s mark that seems to be quite familiar in books from similar authors and figures in the last year - almost like the publisher has an agenda to fulfil and the author duly deliver a short chapter accordingly - the worthy moment when the author speaks up on behalf of causes that have no direct link to the context of the chapters, but it feels positively shoe-horned in (my autocorrect just changed that to show horned which is a very apt proffering given the circumstances!) maybe it’s to ensure entry to somewhere good? I feel mean as this was the most contextual out of all of the others that sprang to my mind but it was still noticeable… I don’t know - I completely support the ‘First they came…’ theory and I will read books about causes and issues on all things deemed as popular and unpopular, but I’m not completing a survey about what a great philosophical person the author is - I’m here to read the book with information gleaned from the title and summary - please don’t patronise the medium or the audience by adding your record of achievement political likes and dislikes

All these words you read above are ‘learnt truths’ things we fear that other people will think of is. I hate offending people really and I always say sorry when I’ve spoken truthfully and the saddest thing is I’ve then contradicted myself. I’m saying sorry for being me!
