Tamzin Outhwaite is embarking on a personal journey that's all about sequins, salsas, and conquering her fears. The 54 year old actress has gracefully stepped into the line-up for Strictly Come Dancing's 2024 Christmas Special, partnering with salsa sensation and professional dancer Nikita Kuzmin.Despite finding the experience "terrifying" and suffering from back pain that leaves her waking up "like a nana", as reported by OK!, she sees it as part of her self-challenge to focus on joy and "fill up my own cup". "I'm just trying to stay open, get out of my comfort zone and do different things to help me grow," Tamzin explains."I'm on a bit of a mission at the moment.

I want to do more things that give you fear because even going through the fear is important. That's where your growth happens as a person." This shift in Tamzin's life began after menopause struck amidst her hectic schedule as an actress, mother of two, and caring daughter to her elderly father who resides "at the end of the garden".

Feeling overwhelmed, she dived into wellness, embracing breathwork, intensifying her yoga routine, and even installing a sauna in her spare room, reports the Mirror.

Tamzin Outhwaite has opened up about the importance of self-care amidst her busy life, saying: "Taking stock, taking a breath and retreating is something I've been learning to do so I can fill up my own cup then come back into my life and do everything that I do, which is keeping up a career, keeping up home, keeping up everything to do with my children and my dad, who lives with me at the end of the garden.
