72. Andy Coulson on regrets, resilience and recovery
In today’s episode we revisit a conversation from three years ago, when I swapped seats and let my friend, the journalist and broadcaster Jane Moore ask me the questions.
Listening back to this interview, my approach to life after crisis remains relatively unchanged, but I also realise that there’s so much more I’ve learnt as a result of the 60+ episodes I’ve recorded since then.
The judgement free platform we provide for our guests to talk about their experiences of crisis, mean that we’ve been able to build an incredibly valuable archive packed with useful, practical tools for anyone facing a challenge. I hope you enjoy this episode and please do have a listen to the other guests I’ve had the privilege to talk to.
Andy’s Crisis Comforts
1. Charles Dickens – The Pickwick Papers – I could not have been more delighted on the day that I finally got into the library at HMP Belmarsh, and even more delighted that there was a whole shelf of Dickens.
2. Ben Howard – ‘Keep Your Head Up’ – Music has been incredibly important for me and my family. This has been a bit of a family anthem.
3. Château Musar – A very tasty Lebanese wine - Liquid proof that there is some good that can come of crisis.
