About this listen

Multi-talented Cameron Daddo has been a part of the Australian entertainment scene since the late '80s. But you might be surprised to learn that, despite appearances, he grew up lacking confidence. He was a stutterer as a kid, then a restless student and uni dropout, before going on to build a life in showbiz.

In this memoir, Daddo shares the valuable lessons he's learnt along the way, some very publicly – the rejections, the victories and everything in between. Through a series of intimate conversations, he also explores public and private crises in the lives of extraordinary Australians, including Keith Urban and Marcia Hines, Michael O'Loughlin and Ryan 'Fitzy' Fitzgerald, Indira Naidoo and Alyssa Healy.

Inspiring and empowering, Keep It Smooth shows us how to rally when we feel we have nothing left to give, and how we can learn to find confidence within.

Critic Reviews

'This is a beautiful book: the perfect combination of vulnerability, humour and life lessons, and the ideal companion for anyone who struggles with self-esteem and confidence. Very thought-provoking.' (Hugh van Cuylenburg, author of The Resilience Project)
'A searingly honest account of Cam’s relationship with work, life, confidence and most importantly himself, as he generously shares his deepest fears and challenges. Cam’s story is deeply personal, and the people he interviews are just as honest. This book is packed with life lessons, guts and reassurance that we all need to back ourselves.' (Melissa Doyle AM, journalist, television presenter, radio presenter and author)
'Cameron fearlessly leads the way into unearthing why we might lack confidence, and then explores how we might not only restore confidence but grow it in ourselves and others.' (Osher Günsberg, one of Australia’s most recognisable media personalities)
'These pages are the hand-holders that we all need to be reminded we are capable of creating our potential.' (Rebecca Ray, clinical psychologist and bestselling author)
'The affection many listeners will feel for the Australian author during the opening passages of this audiobook will grow steadily as he describes overcoming personal challenges on his way to becoming a successful actor, husband, and father. With his humility and perspective, his stories from childhood to the present (he's 60 now) are captivating, and the lessons he shares are delivered gently. With a professional-level speaking voice full of curiosity about life, he's a wonderful narrator. He's assisted by his wife, Alison Daddo, and Steve Blanda who perform the handful of vignettes shared by various other entertainment and sports figures. Their stories provide examples of how others gained confidence, and the additional male and female voices – both excellent – add variety that helps make this audiobook special to hear.' (AudioFile)
