Donna Preston: Constant Creation, The Importance of Self Reflection and How To Harness Opportunity

The Capsule in Conversation

In the penultimate episode of this series Natalie is joined by Actress & Comedian Donna Preston to talk the art of constant creation, being robust in the face of challenge and how to harness opportunity from change. Donna and Natalie also discuss the importance of honouring your journey, taking a moment to reflect on where you’ve been, what you’ve achieved and how life has shaped you. Donna remarks that as women we seldom give ourselves a much needed pat on the back and allow ourselves to feel pride in the women we’ve become. The pair discuss Donna’s illustrious career highlights including her most recent appearance as Despair in Netflix’s fantasy drama The Sandman. Donna touches on how although the role was a personal career high for her, the online attention she received was at times hurtful and uncomfortable focussing on her appearance rather than her performance. She talks about building a thick skin from that experience and how she is thrilled to be joining David Tennant in the new series of Good Omens. Listen in for an honest, open and humorous conversation that will leave you feeling inspired and empowered.
