BBC Radio2 Rev Kate Bottley: Religion At The BBC and Normalising Death

BBC Radio2 Rev Kate Bottley joins Johnny Seifert on Secure The Insecure Podcast.

Kate opens up about growing up in a working-class Sheffield family where money worries shaped her early life and mental health. She reflects on finding her faith as a teenager, navigating the pressure of being the nation's face of religion and why her sense of purpose comes from a higher power.

Kate also discusses the emotional power of personalised funerals and why we need to talk more openly about death and grief. Plus, she shares the insights of being asked for selfies at funerals.
