Headstrong

Simon Lycett has spent his life creating floral dreams for royalty and grand stages, but behind the 22-minute high-pressure "scrambles" is a man who finds his peace in the soil. In this episode of Take 10, Simon opens up about the "magical" visceral connection of flowers, overcoming imposter syndrome after being laughed at for his appearance, and why a garden is the perfect place to be alone with your thoughts. It’s a masterclass in staying grounded while working at the very top.

Sebby Holmes, the mastermind behind Highbury’s acclaimed Farang, is redefining what it means to be a "Head Chef." In this episode of Take 10, Sebby gets honest about the "stupidity and luck" of starting a business with £10 to his name, the mental health toll of 100-hour work weeks, and why he now prioritizes a four-day week for his entire team. It’s a conversation about growth, switching off, and dealing with the cards you're dealt.

Emma Campbell (Limitless Em) has faced three cancer diagnoses, but she’s tired of being called "brave."
