SUMMARY:In conversation with BBC broadcaster and psychologist Dr Sian Williams
DESCRIPTION:Beloved BBC broadcaster and psychologist is to discuss her acclaimed book ‘The Power of Anxiety’ in conversation with Festival Chair Lucy Cotter.\nJersey Festival of Words has announced that Dr Sian Williams – one of the UK’s most celebrated broadcasters and a qualified psychologist – will appear at this year’s festival on Saturday 26 September, 2.00–3.00pm at the Freedom Centre.\nFamiliar to millions from her many years as anchor on BBC Breakfast and as presenter on Radio 3 and 4, Dr Williams will join Festival Chair Lucy Cotter for a thoughtful and illuminating conversation about her book The Power of Anxiety. The event will explore how anxiety – a feeling so often viewed as purely negative – can in fact become a source of strength, insight and resilience. Drawing on psychological research and personal experience, Dr Williams’ book examines why anxiety affects so many of us, and how we can better understand and harness it in our everyday lives.\nThe event is sponsored by Hightvern, now in their fifth consecutive year supporting the Festival. Group Executive Chairman Martin Hall said that Dr Williams’ work reframed anxiety ‘not as a weakness but as a source of strength’, and that her upcoming event ‘exemplifies the kind of compelling conversation that makes the festival a standout in Jersey’s cultural calendar.’\n
