I am SO excited that the first guest for Reign season two is Vanessa Kirby, a *genuine* Oscar nominee who gave me one of the best pieces of advice for managing anxiety I have ever heard. It completely changed my own mindset so I hope this episode helps you if you are struggling in these ever changing times.

Given that she played Princess Margaret on ‘The Crown’ - one of my all time favourite TV shows and performances - this is as close as I might ever get to having a member of the Royal Family on ‘Make It Reign’ so excuse me whilst I contain myself!

Vanessa also starred in ‘Fast and The Furious: Hobbs and Shaw’ and ‘Mission Impossible’ but it was playing a mother consumed by grief after losing her baby during a home birth, in Netflix’s ‘Pieces of A Woman’ that Vanessa broke all of our hearts and sweeped to, beyond deserved, Golden Globe, SAG, BAFTA and Oscar nominations. I couldn’t stop crying, and if you haven’t watched it yet, you are going to need your tissues!

Vanessa joins me for a very moving conversation about why we all need to open up more about grief and loss and how watching an IRL birth in preparation for ‘Pieces of A Woman’ has changed her forever.

Plus we talk about how Vanessa has learnt to manage her anxiety, navigate imposter syndrome and how lockdown boredom saw her regressing back to being a teenager spending hours playing The Sims. My kinda queen!

I hope you find this chat just as reassuring and inspiring as I did! Enjoy, queens!
Love, Josh xx
