On today's podcast I read out a blog post I wrote all about why I don't like tracking certain things and how it can lead me to become obsessed and seeking more dopamine hits, taking me out of enjoying the moment. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this and how you can/can't relate. Message me on Instagram @agoodkindofscary

Here's the blog post that this episode is inspired off:

I don’t like tracking my steps – A Good Kind of Scary

On today's show I chat with Anna Flynn (@annaflynnlookwithin) all about art, creative expression & how our deepest wounds can become our medicine. Anna shares openly about how years of creative/emotional repression led to a breakdown, which inevitably pushed her onto the artistic path she lives today. Anna alchemized her pain through painting, writing, speaking up, and bringing communities together. 

We talk about our upcoming creative day retreat 'The Artist's Date' on August 17th in the Burren! Read more here. Limited spaces available.

This podcast episode explores what it means to be authentic and questions if being self-aware is a big part of it.

This episode is really just me piecing together some ponderings that have been on my mind lately. I chat about writers' block, mindfulness, breathwork, 'who am I', losing ourselves in narratives, coming back to values, and so on. It's a bit of a meandering flow of thoughts. Vast and moving fast. Enjoy! 

On today's episode of the podcast, I chat about all things Irish: why some people are interested in learning our native language whereas others aren't, why culture matters and what it means, my experience of attending a bunscoil in Armagh, the division between communities in the north, why I think Kneecap can be therapeutic for many. I also talk about the repressed emotions so many of us carry from our history of colonialism on this small island. I explain how tools like breathwork, somatic movement, and physical touch can be beneficial for these blocked emotions and shamed experiences.

A big theme of today's episode is taking space to yourself away from the busy world. I recorded this episode a month ago. I explore what it was like spending the first two weeks of this year alone catsitting in Germany. I also chat about my experience of being forced into a blackout for a week after a storm hit Ireland at the end of January.

Today's episode is a special one. I'm joined by someone who has helped me feel less alone during challenging times and who I am grateful to call a friend. Jess is a neuroscience coach & reiki practitioner with a love of creative expression. She talks about how her outlook on life has changed since losing her dad John. We delve deep into finding purpose during grief, the importance of self expression, and the challenges faced when you're on a 'self-development' journey. Jess chats about why sharing online feels different to what it used to be.

On this episode, I read out a letter I wrote to the version of me at the start of 2024 filling them in on what's happened since. This was a new way to reflect on the year and was surprisingly therapeutic. Listen in for a vulnerable journal entry. 

Best wishes to all of you in this coming year!

This episode explores how we can encourage/discourage behaviours and the reason why some people find it more challenging to stay motivated than others. I chat about the different ways our body keeps the score and why particular painful experiences can leave wounds. I also cover how attachment styles impact our romantic relationships. I'll share some helpful words of wisdom for staying motivated when developing new habits or making personal development changes!

On this week's podcast episode, I explore the meaning of 'freedom'. What is the difference between individual freedom VS collective freedom? Are people more likely to fight for freedom when something has been taken from them? Is freedom something we have to fight for or is it all about letting go? Is it about chasing dreams or is it about detaching?
