Daniel Howell is a name that 17 million people will know from being avid followers of his YouTube channel for the past 10 years. In the beginning, these followers were built tall from Dan’s comedian prowess… and no-one questioned it.  Several years into his success one person started to question where his humour came from and who he really was, and the person with those questions, was Dan. In the last few years Dan has bravely used his platform to air his struggles with his mental health and his sexuality, hoping to help others going through similar difficulties, and he hasn’t stopped there.  With his brand new book “You Will Get Through This Night” releasing next week, Dan is giving advice to his readers he wished he’d had all those years ago, providing the tools to understand your own mind.  Dan and Katie hit it off as they discuss the amazing clarity he found after coming out as gay, the effects comedy has had on his life and the difficult truth about going for a run!
