Welcome to Successville, coming soon.

Transcript:

Hello, lovely listeners. It's me, your friend and host, Sophie Williams. And this is Welcome to Successville, a podcast where I have conversations with some of the most successful people I know to try to find out what is success? How do you know when you've got it? And is it really all it's cracked up to be?

As a little background, over the last four years, I've been really busy. I've written and had published three books with major publishers. I've done a TED talk. I've been part of the UK delegation to the United Nations twice. I've seen my words printed in major magazines and newspapers more times than I can count. I've become an accidental influencer with over a hundred thousand followers and I've been a global leader at your favourite streaming company. And I bought a flat in London. But despite this creds list, I still didn't and don't feel successful.

Or at least I don't feel how I imagined success would feel.

In fact, the question I kept asking myself over and over again was, if this is success, why does it feel so bad?

And so to find out if I'm broken or if it's my idea of success that needs to change, I've gathered together some of the best and brightest people I know, to ask them about their successes, how they feel, and if the things they've achieved are really worth the effort.

So, lovely listeners, welcome to Successful. I hope you enjoy your stay.
