The Conversation with Amanda de Cadenet

511kt-xovwl_sx500_

I would like to tell you about an American television interview series called „The Conversation“, which started airing in 2012. You probably haven’t heard about it before, which is why I would really like to recommend you (especially or maybe even exclusively you girls) to check out the website. 

Amanda de Cadenet, a British photographer and former actress, is the host of the website. Demi Moore is the co-executive producer. On the show, Amanda de Cadenet has interviewed celebrities such as Lady Gaga, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jane Fonda Last, Alicia Keys, Eva Longoria, Christina Applegate, Olivia Wilde, Eva Mendes, and many many more. 

What I find so special about this show is the topics they talk about and above all, how they talk about it. As the guests staring the show are all very famous, not only in the US, but also on the rest of the world, one would expect them to use this show in order to push their careers by saying whatever they think people might want to hear from them. All the more I was surprised when I first watched the show. They talk about love, sexuality, parenting, career, etc. All in all - about life and the difficulties everyone has to face and overcome, but also the positive sides of our existence. What makes the show really successful and fascinating, is, according to me, the honesty and wisdom the guests are sharing. Every single story of these famous women is extremely inspiring. One quickly realizes, that although they are rich and famous, they go through just the same stuff as women like us (who didn’t (YET ;)) make such an astounding career).

If you are a bit of a philosopher like I am, if you like talking about the “important” things of life – about what life is really about - every now and then, if you have a problem you are unsure how to solve, or if you just feel like you need some inspiration – take a look through some of the videos and see for yourself how moving, inspiring and touching these videos are. You can even watch the full episodes online. 

In case you prefer reading, there’s also plenty of selected articles on a great variety of subjects by people from all over the world – mostly writers, life coaches, psychotherapists or Amanda de Cadenet herself. 

Here’s a link to the videos: http://www.theconversation.tv/videos/
 
ENJOY! :)
