How to make a successful low budget Indie feature with Dan Clark and Kelly Wenham - A Kind of Kidnapping

[TW//Eating disorders, Bulimia, Binge Eating, Anxiety, Body Image, Suicide] 1.25 million people in the UK struggle with eating disorders such as bulimia and binge eating. Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of all mental health conditions. Suicide is the major cause of death, with those suffering with bulimia 7 x more likely to commit suicide. Today I welcome Kelly Wenham who is an accomplished actress, voice over artist, writer and director. At the age of 16, she landed the role of Jess Buckley on the smash hit ITV drama 'Where The Heart Is' which she appeared as a series regular for 4 years and has been working in the industry ever since.Kelly's journey starts as a teenager landing a modelling opportunity in Japan that triggers a slow and dangerous decent into chronic bulimia that nearly takes her life on more than one occasion. Kelly spends her twenties in and out of recovery desperately looking for a solution that seems out of reach.She never gives up despite her struggles and finally finds a solution that works for her to break free. Kelly is a bulimia survivor, a hero and an inspiration. I cannot thank Kelly enough for opening up so honestly to help others.If you are affected by the sensitive content or are looking for useful resources, Kelly recommends contacting Julie Kerr @ www.bulimiafree.com and the following books 👇  'Brain Over Binge' by Kathryn Hansen and 'Women, Food and God' by Geneene Roth.Topics - 00:00 Intro/3:42 Kelly's rock bottom/8:10 More rock bottoms/9:32 Puberty &amp; coping with dyslexia/11:30 Kelly starts modelling at 14/7:57 The slippery slope to Bulimia /19:08 The start of bulimia/21:53 Getting into acting/26:35 Why acting didn't cure bulimia/31:50 Bulimia getting worse and addiction to purging/36:48 The role of sugar and foods/40:30 Reaching out for help but really struggling/49:40 Finding solutions/59:30 Dealing with rejection as an actor/01:04 What would you say to your younger self? This Podcast is not for profit but my goal is to break even.

E2: Kelly Wenham: Eating Disorders, Bulimia, Binge Eating, Anxiety & Recovery

Georgia Groome

 Ian is joined in the studio by Kelly Wenham and Georgia Groome, both in the new black comedy film ‘Double Date’, and on the phone by comedian Brian Gittins (and a very random dog), who half-heatedly promoted his new tour ‘Don’t Feed the Monkey Man’, which takes place across the UK in October and November.


 

Episode 66 - Brian Gittins, Kelly Wenham, and Georgia Groome
