EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of The Diary of a CEO, featuring Lewis Capaldi and Steven Bartlett, Lewis Capaldi: The Untold Story Of Becoming A Global Superstar At 22 | E178 explores Lewis Capaldi Confronts Fame, Anxiety, and Identity Behind the Hits Lewis Capaldi discusses his journey from pub gigs in Scotland to global superstardom by 22, revealing how early family trauma, anxiety, and hypochondria shaped both his personality and his music. He explains how fame massively amplified pre‑existing anxiety, culminating in panic attacks, Tourette’s tics, and a near-collapse during his first arena tour. Capaldi details how therapy, medication, and radical honesty about his struggles have helped him regain control while still fearing the pressure and expectations around his second album. Throughout, he contrasts his self-deprecating public persona with the serious, emotionally raw songwriter behind the scenes, and wrestles openly with impostor syndrome, relationships, and what actually makes him happy.
