Show Notes
We’re revisiting one of Claire’s all-time favourite Just As Well conversations: her honest, funny and deeply moving interview with Jessie J.
Jessie talks Claire through the year that changed everything, including her 2025 breast cancer diagnosis — finding the lump, getting the call, surgery and recovery — and what it means to keep showing up while raising her son. She also reflects on early fame, lifelong health challenges, grief, and her adult diagnoses of ADHD and OCD, sharing the tools that help her feel grounded when life gets loud.
Full of Jessie’s trademark humour and candour, this is a powerful conversation about resilience, perspective and choosing to live out loud.
