For Ashley Roberts, dance was her self-expression and meditation. Then, at the height of her Pussycat Dolls fame the art she loved became tangled up in extreme burnout and body shaming.In this chat with Fearne, Ashley explains how discovering breathwork brought her back to herself after a period of intense anxiety and physical ill-health. Now, the Pussycat Dolls are making a comeback in their 40s, and this time round they’re doing it with a bigger focus on having more fun and giving fewer f*cks.There’s a lot of mental illness in her family, so Ashley talks about the mental health toolkit she’s creating for herself, as well as the grief of losing her dad to suicide. Plus, she and Fearne both suffer from insomnia, so share what works – and what really doesn’t – for each of them.The Pussycat Dolls will be touring Europe in summer 2026.If you liked this episode of Happy Place, you might also like:<a href="https://pod.fo/e/205bb3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Leigh-Anne Pinnock</a><a href="https://pod.fo/e/20397f" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LeAnne Rimes</a><a href="https://pod.fo/e/245bab" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Paloma Faith</a>&nbsp;<hr> Hosted on Acast.
