The synopsis for the show reads: "Her son has joined a cult and her cat’s learnt to talk – but despite all that, she’s fine, actually. In fact she’s hurtling faster and hustling harder than ever for the things that she wants and needs.’

During her tour, Jessica will be visiting towns and cities across the country, including but not limited to, London, Leicester, Bath and Cardiff.

Jessica said: “I’m properly giddy about sharing this show. I've spent the last year feeling increasingly passionate about so many things from the state of the world to the state of the monsters on Married at First Sight.

“I’ve had a big birthday and it's come with a torrent of life-bending revelations; the biggest of which is that even if something seems impossible, it might not be. I'd been spending too long giving up too easily. This is a show about shamelessly caring about things a huge amount and turning that passion into positive action.”
