Today’s guest is the brilliant Ruby Wax.
For those of you who follow Ruby, you&aposll know what to expect (and the title of this episode likely won&apost offend you). For those who haven&apost been exposed to her work, note that Ruby uses comedy to both communicate, destigmatize, and cope with mental illness. She is hilarious, but also a serious researcher and a renowned force for good. If you&aposre listening to Slo Mo, you&aposre likely already open-minded, but consider this the extent of my disclaimer that this episode contains words like "whore". Onward.
Ruby is a successful comedian, TV writer and performer of over 25 years. She also holds a master’s degree in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy from Oxford University, and was awarded an OBE in 2015 for her services to mental health.
She is the author of books Sane New World and A Mindfulness Guide for the Frazzled and has toured all over the world with the accompanying one-woman shows. Both books have reached the number one spot on the Sunday Times bestsellers list and a third book, How to Be Human: The Manual was also a major bestseller. In March 2017 she launched Frazzled Café in partnership with Marks & Spencer and in November 2017, she was announced as the president of the UK’s leading relationship support charity Relate.
