A trained life coach with a wealth of personal experience, Jeff Brazier is well placed to offer us some comfort while we navigate our way through the pandemic. The father of two has launched a podcast, Only Human, in an effort to help listeners with their problems during these challenging times.

“I know people are struggling in ways they might not want to admit to or simply aren’t used to at the moment,” Jeff tells new as we catch up over Zoom, “I feel a sense of responsibility to utilise the fact I’ve been a life coach for seven years.”

Jeff, 41, has spoken openly about his own experiences with therapy, both on his own and with his wife of two years, Kate Dwyer. The presenter has also been a rock to his two children, Bobby, 17, and Freddie, 16, through the grief of losing their mother, Jade Goody, to cancer in 2009. Now, he’s hoping he can use those experiences to guide others through the toughest of situations.

Here, Jeff chats about his sons, the highs and lows of homeschooling and his new lockdown hobby…

Hi Jeff, how are you doing?
