The first male on Season 2 was the inspiring all Ireland Dublin GAA Player Philly McMahon who recently retired. He has multiple business but has found his purpose through opening up about the struggles he went through  with loosing his brother to drug addiction and how much he learnt from this. He wanted to make a change and now works with the progression unit in Mount Joy.

I chat to Philly about the stigma around the education on drugs , dealing with grief , his own self development  and  how he has the motivation to keep going with all his business. Philly is such an amazing role model and was someone I had on my list to get on my pod. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did.
