From Runner to Presenter - Darren Kennedy
I'm delighted this week to be joined by Darren Kennedy. He's a busy guy, best known as a TV presenter, style entrepreneur, fashion columnist, and founder of grooming brand Kennedy & Co. He's highly regarded as one of the UK and Ireland's most stylish men and top lifestyle influencers. As an accomplished writer, Darren contributes regularly to titles such as Telegraph Men, Hello!, Askmen (UK and US), Attitude, Irish Tatler, and a weekly style column in the Irish Independent. As well as a seasoned style writer, Darren has also made his mark on the digital sphere maintaining a strong audience across all social media channels. Darren’s popular #SixtySecondStyle videos regularly exceed over a million views on Instagram. He is a go-to for some of the world’s most influential brands, today he talks to us about his journey, navigating the landscape, and where he is looking to take things next. We talk about how he got started, working in TV as a runner to working his way up. Now, one of the most in-demand presenters, regularly hosting events and fashion shows. We also talk about how he overcame bullies, coming to terms with his sexuality, embracing body positivity, the success of his documentary "Gay Daddy" and so much more. Darren came on this episode and was extremely open and honest, making for one of my most favourite episodes thus far. Enjoy.
