Amanda de Cadenet on Facing "Dire" Loneliness and Loving Alcoholics

About this episode

Amanda de Cadenet discusses her experiences with loneliness, fame, and recovery.

Amanda de Cadenet lost control at an early age. As a teenager, she was on TV, married to a rockstar and all over the tabloids, but she had a deep loneliness that she couldn’t face. When she entered recovery, she stepped behind the camera for the first time and discovered the power of her own gaze. Now, as the host of “The Conversation with Amanda de Cadenet,” she creates space for some of the world’s best-known people to reveal themselves in surprising ways. Join us for our own conversation about fame, despair and why her recovery is still the most important thing in her life.
