Grant Denyer 'I got tired of living in fear and shame'

Grant Denyer is one of Australia’s most iconic and loved presenters. In a career spanning over 20 years, he shows up as one of the hardest working people in showbiz, but behind his success Grant has struggled with ‘enormous’ imposter syndrome and not feeling enough from a young age. In this episode Grant opens up about the torture of high achieving and negative self talk, and how its led him to dig deeper and hold himself to the highest standard of work. Something Grant says has served him professionally, but hasnt served him well in his personal life. Now that Grant is becoming  more comfortable in his own skin he is doing the work to undo some of these old core values, and shares with Jess the emotional moment he finally felt enough. If you cant get enough of Grant, check out his podcast It's all Truewhere he and his wife Chezzi open the book on their drama-filled 10-year marriage, in a straight-from-the-horse's-mouth account of life with the Denyers.  The Jess Rowe Big Talk Showacknowledges the Gadigal people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we recorded this podcast, and pay our respects to their Elders past, present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders peoples here today.
