Summary

Frankie Bridge is best known for her pop career - she was a member of one of the UK’s most successful girl bands, The Saturdays, and pop group S Club Juniors, which she joined at just 12-years-old. She’s also the Sunday Times bestselling author of OPEN: Why Asking for Help Can Save Your Life and GROW: Motherhood, Mental Health and Me. In this episode we talk about the power of self-belief, her experience of being a child star and its impact on her life, and the challenges of comparison when you're in a girl band.
