Are you underperforming because you are over-preparing? Viv Groskop talks to writer and mental health campaigner Bryony Gordon about the power that comes from showing your vulnerability, the buzz of disproving the doubting voices in your head and the authenticity of not preparing too much. Oh, and putting Aquafresh on your spots.

Bryony's new book, No Such Thing as Normal is out now. 

Viv's books, including How to Own the Room, are also out now.

And you can subscribe now to Viv's other podcast, We Can Rebuild Her; a series of intimate conversations about reinventing yourself in the age of pandemic.
