Do you struggle with social anxiety, feel a sense of shame and inadequacy when in public, or class yourself as a highly sensitive person? If the answer is yes, then you will find much value in this week's guest interview with Russell Norris, who has successfully battled a debilitating social anxiety disorder, the results of which have now been published in his incredible new book 'Red Face: How I Learnt To Live With Social Anxiety'.

Russell joins Paul to discuss the book, how his own social anxiety grew and where he believes it emerged from in his life, and the practical ways in which you yourself can recognise the symptoms and get to work on defeating them.
