Heartbreak is a universal feeling, but everyone copes with it differently. Presenter, actor and singer Denise Van Outen tends to throw herself into work, keeping busy with exciting professional opportunities, to distract from any pain.
In this chat with Fearne, Denise talks about how she’s learnt to accept being alone after heartbreak and acknowledge the stillness without constantly trying to fill the void. Close friends Fearne and Denise also share their experiences of raising blended families, and chat about how much of your heartbreak - or any other pain - you should share with your kids.
Denise’s book, ‘A Bit of Me: From Basildon, to Broadway, and Back’, is available to buy now.

What are your go-to strategies when coping with heartache or a breakup?

@allaniain 2 жыл бұрын

I deleted social media apps and spent some time adjusting to being on my own again. I re-arranged furniture in every room, bought some photo frames and filled them with photos of friends and family, bought myself some flowers. Basically making the previously shared living space feel like a new and fresh start with no reminders of my previous relationship and routines. Building new foundations and routines is a must! Swear off dating for a while and then the right person will come along when you aren't looking. Infidelity could make you mistrust other people, you need to remind yourself that not everyone is like the person you just dated and that you may find someone more like minded that has experienced infidelity themselves and so less likely to cheat on you as they know how it feels. Take care of yourself is No.1 priority x

I just have to remind myself it's not my fault & when I concentrate on loving myself again ...that's my therapy... I love myself more than the guy that hurt me x

I've had a really rough few years and struggle to even admit that to myself.. Still hung up on my ex too, and that was a decade ago! It's time to heal and move on. I think ur podcast is going to help! This conversation was beautiful. Thanks!

Agreed. She’s also been stereotyped and labelled because she’s from Essex. She is very talented but imo was never given the chance to fulfil her potential. It’s interesting how much further ‘posh’ actors go vs the average people

Loved listening to this conversation ... both lovely ladies... being open and honest! I'm a therapist and I would definitely agree, Denise is right about therapy, it is about self discovery,. Personally I feel we have the answers within us, we just need a safe environment to work through it sometimes.

I think personally wouldnt advise her to go on dating apps and meet people in real life ... waste of time for a celeb...lots of cheats , on them .Complete waste of time! Best meet through friends connections. That is such an ideal way 👍.

@audrajeanelliott-davies4681 2 жыл бұрын

It is about staying with the feeling even if it is uncomfortable. You are then able to move forward stronger than if you suppress or push down negative feelings. Fern knew what she was saying and was correct. Have a look at mindfulness / stress reduction programmes. X

@@emmadeal1105 and people wonder why people from Essex are tired of all this stereotyping. Denise suffered horrific snobbery I witnessed it as somebody who worked at a newspaper. The things that were said about her were awful. We really have an issue with women who aren’t posh in this country. And it never gets addressed as I think the powers that be would rather people like Denise didn’t exist
