Who is Davina McCall?

So I am a woman. I am a mother. I am a girlfriend. I'm a hard worker. I am empathetic sometimes to a fault and quite good fun.

What has been your proudest achievement to date?

That's easy. So my proudest achievement to date has definitely been all the work that I've been doing for women in recent years around the menopause. I think I didn't realise how it would make me feel. I thought, I've got to do this. I was in such a dark place, but I had no idea how good and fulfilling it feels to really genuinely feel like you can make a difference somewhere.

What advice would you give to your younger self?

I think if I could really tell my younger self this, but in a really way that my younger self would go, I hear you. I think it's very easy to say to someone, you're going to be okay. And then go, yeah, yeah, whatever. But I feel terrible and it doesn't feel like if I could have said to my younger self, you're going to be okay, and me really hear it, I think it would've helped a lot. I didn't think it was going to be okay, but it really was.

Have you ever struggled with your own mental health?

How old were you when you started going through the menopause?
