This episode we chat with Britian’s very own singer-songwriter Jamelia. Jamelia is not only an incredible advocate for people speaking up but somebody who has sold millions of albums and scored number one’s all over the world. She has won multiple awards including 4 Mobo’s a Q award and an Ivor Novello.
She’s appeared on programmes on every major UK TV channel and hit the screens on countless movies both in front and her music as soundtracks and tv screens. Such a powerful episode as we delve into getting to know the person behind the public persona that people think they know and go behind the scenes to learn what it is like to feel like you are living almost a dual life at the same time and what comes with that.
We learn about Jamelia's upbringing to then being thrust into the limelight after signing her first record deal at 15 and what comes with navigating through an industry when all eyes are on you and we hear about a shift into the TV industry later on through her career where she began to see a negative side of an experience in the entertainment industry to where she first experienced struggles with her own mental health after having the realisation that she seemed to be loved when entertaining through music but not when on one of Britains biggest daytime talk shows on a panel with an opinion.
Such a powerful, raw and open conversation as we continue to find out how Jamelia worked through that period of time and healed those emotional struggles and where she is now.
