  • Amol Rajan: Being Present & Appreciating Your Wins

    On this week’s episode of Priorities I’m in conversation with journalist, editor, author, and general all-round media polymath Amol Rajan. In 2013, Amol became the first non-white journalist to run a UK national newspaper when he took over the editorship of the Independent at the young age of 29. Now the Media Editor and a presenter at the BBC, Amol is stunningly accomplished, but as you’ll soon hear, he is also incredibly down-to-earth and on a one man mission to make the world a better place.

    Some of the topics we cover include:

    • How our relationships shape us
  • Working on newspapers vs tv
  • The impact of fashion & beauty on women’s bodies
  • How to live more in the present
  • Will you agree with Amol’s priorities? Have a listen and find out.

    Priorities explores the things in life that really matter. Join Lily Silverton as she invites inspirational guests to discuss their priorities, and how these help them successfully navigate this demanding modern world.
