Christian O’Connell: I had everything I ever wanted, and I was falling apart

From dominating the UK airwaves to starting over on the other
side of the world, Christian O’Connell is a broadcaster and
writer who has built a career out of connection, candour, and
comedy.


In this episode of Full Disclosure, James O’Brien sits down with
Christian to trace the path from his childhood in Hampshire to
becoming one of the UK’s most celebrated radio voices- and the
breakdown that forced him to confront what success really meant.
They explore the roots of Christian’s anxiety, the healing power
of storytelling, and the courage it took to walk away from it all
to begin again in Australia.


Warm, unfiltered and often profound, Christian opens up about
family, fame, fear and finding clarity in chaos- a conversation
about reinvention, honesty, and what it takes to truly come home
to yourself.
