Tom Bradby is an award-winning journalist and TV presenter, and currently the presenter of ITV News at Ten.

In his spare time, he’s written 10 novels and several screenplays.

But a few years ago, his life came off the rails, when he had a breakdown and was signed off work for 3 months with acute insomnia.

He speaks about what led to his breakdown, and how he found a way to a more balanced life.

The award-winning journalist Isabel Hardman talks about dealing with extreme trauma and a public breakdown while covering the Conservative Party conference.

What she’s learned has helped her not just to cope, but thrive in the often brutal world of Westminster politics.

She is a big proponent of the healing power of nature, which she outlines in her book, “The Natural Health Service.”

The BBC Today programme presenter, Justin Webb, is known for mixing forensic journalistic skills with being a true gentleman.

But he had a difficult childhood, brought up by a complex mother with lots of issues and a step-father with a severe mental illness.

When he was eight, his mother told him the presenter he was watching on the news was his father Peter Woods, a man he would never meet.

He talks openly about all of this in his fascinating new memoir, “The Gift of Radio, My Childhood and other Trainwrecks.”

Seven years ago, the BBC TV presenter and journalist George Alagiah was diagnosed with bowel cancer.

The prognosis wasn't good, and he was told to get his affairs in order.

George speaks movingly and frankly about coping with the knowledge that his life and relationships will be cut short, and what living in the shadow of a terrible disease has helped him appreciate.
