Kimberley invites Dr Xand van Tulleken to open up about why he finds it so hard to accept himself. Together they talk through what self-acceptance means, and how you can take the empowering first steps to integrating the bits of yourself you don’t like with the bits that you do.

She invites expert guests - trained psychologists, psychiatrists and psychotherapists - to join her and together they share insight and valuable tips.
