'You are your greatest brand, supporter, ally, lover, all of those things. If you can do that, you can really survive anything.'
Sian went on to reveal that she has used these techniques to be able to cope with her overnight fame following the rip-roaring success of Fleabag.
She said: 'Last year, if I hadn't been in that place, it could have been extremely unsettling and overwhelming, because we never could have anticipated what happened to Fleabag last year.'

Sian, who has known co-star Phoebe since their drama school days, also touched on her reaction when she first read the script for the programme.
The star said: 'I thought it was the best thing I had ever read. It was just so new and zeitgeisty, something insanely wonderful, fuelled by love, and it didn't matter to me whether it did well or not, because I was so thrilled we were making it.'
She also revealed that she and the James Bond writer have further plans to keep working together as she teased future projects, adding:
'…we want to keep on collaborating, because it is so easy and fluid – the dialogue we have… sometimes we don't need to say anything… it's done with a look. I don't know if I will ever have that with someone else, the implicit trust of thoughts and ideas.'
