In today’s episode I talk to the well known British actor and writer Eddie Webber.
Eddie’s childhood began on the working-class streets of south east London in the 60s and 70s.
His journey wasn’t an easy one with many twists and turns throughout.
One event that changed him forever, was being wrongly accused of a series of serious crimes, something that haunted him for a long time.
His past has been colourful and interesting.
From going to live in a kibbutz in Israel, to enrolling in drama school to becoming a born-again Christian and battling substance abuse on and off for years, before getting his big break in Nick Love’s The Business.
Since then Eddie has graced the red carpet for films such as The Firm and Rise of the Footsoldier, the ever popular TV series Eastenders and other popular series and films of modern times.
He has worked with some of the most well known film directors and actors throughout his career.
He has written two books one being his autobiography called Hi Diddle Dee Dee and a book on meditation.
He is a passionate advocate of Sri Ramana Maharshi’s teachings and it’s this way of a contemplative life that has led him to embrace a life of spiritual awareness and gain peace.
Eddie talks with deep rawness and refreshing honesty about the intricacy of the human soul and his turmoil, enlightenment and rise to be a huge success, despite the battles in attaining equilibrium. An incredible story that is revealing and yet touching in many ways, showing how courage and strength elevates even the most difficult of destines.
