Being Part of a TV Show

As I write this, the four-part TV series Change Your Mind, Change Your Life—which I had the rather unexpected pleasure of being part of—has not yet aired. So, here’s the story of how I came to be involved in what has been, an unusual and enlightening adventure.

The Unexpected Beginning

It all started, quite out of the blue, in July 2023. I was approached by an Associate Producer from 20/20 Productions. Let’s call her Jessie. She got in touch with that mix of charm and persistence that producers seem to be born with. My curiosity was piqued—possibly a touch of ego too—and we spoke.

I liked her immediately. Jessie came to film me for a preliminary interview, asking all sorts of questions. I was unfiltered. I swore. I said what I actually think, not what I ought to think. And I made her laugh, which, frankly, sealed the deal for me.
