Maisie Williams: The Painful Past Of A Game Of Thrones Star | E181

KEYPOINTS

  Maisie Williams: childhood trauma with father (details limited to protect siblings) → chronic sleep struggle, felt inherently wrong vs joyful kids.

  Anxiety often = not being yourself—capable facade while knowing you’re dishonest → free-floating dread.

  Nothing is a waste of time—rewriting ROI conditioning; empty space/rest legitimate.
