SHOW GIVES PENNY A REALITY CHECK The publication says, on the show, Penny will be offering support and guidance to participants as they go about revealing their deepest and darkest secrets, in the hope that the truth will set them free.
Viewers will get to see another side of me - a person who comes from a mental health background. I get to be seen as empathetic and a mediator. Viewers will not only see a TV show, she said.
Penny said that she'll be bringing experience from all the shows she has worked on in the past.

I've worked with a good production team on this show, and one of my highlights was recording in interesting places. It was also a reality check for me - finding out that people have been going through a lot, not realising that they have also been unkind to themselves, she said.
She said she's passionate about authentic and intentional engagements across communities.
Our conversations on The Big Secret will build relationships and the community, and ultimately our beautiful continent. To have BET and this amazing production crew behind me has been incredibly rewarding, she added.
