Older and Bolder

Be bolder as you grow older, and make sure you float above any challenges that threaten to overwhelm you. Multi-award-winning broadcaster, founder of Childline and The Silver Line, campaigner, mother, grandmother and joyous trailblazer of our times, Dame Esther Rantzen dazzled in the glory of getting older and ever bolder.In this energising A-Z, she time-travels through her most significant memories, from meeting Princess Diana to creating a national outrage with a mischievous short film about a driving dog, and reflects with candour and humour on the life lessons she learned along the way, revealing the hints, hacks and personal philosophies that were her secrets to a life well lived.We may not all achieve what Dame Esther did, but here we can soak up her wisdom, laugh with her, learn from her, embrace the passing years and march boldly on.
