  • Are you chasing highs?

    Mindset has become mainstream, that's for sure. For

    today's Monday Momentum I am talking about chasing highs, particularly among women, as they seek external validation and emotional validation.

    I discuss the psychological toll of award culture and the impact it has on peoples sense of self worth, and fear of failure and how it activates the comparison trap.

    I used to live from the outside in - always (unknowingly) needing  external validation and approval instead of from the inside out - deciding what In want and going for it without worrying what people think of me.

    I outline 3 steps in this episode that you can take to see if you are falling down the rabbit hole of chasing highs and the importance of emotional regulation - as well as the importance of letting your emotions fully peak!

    Its a really useful chat that I know will help you to immediately shift your mindset. So get it into your ears, while on your coffee break, out for a walk or on your drive home, Thank me later :)

  • Iconic Women - Episode 18 - Michelle Mc Donagh

    Michelle McDonagh’s debut novel There’s Something I Have To Tell You became an Irish bestseller going to Number two in the Top Ten when it was published in April of this year by Hachette Ireland.

    Michelle has been writing stories since she was a child in primary school, and it had always been her dream to write a novel. After far too many years of intense procrastination, she enrolled in the on online novel writing course in 2019 and decided to step back from journalism for a while to focus on finishing her first novel.

    A native of Galway, she has over 25 years experience as a journalist. She was a staff reporter with The Connacht Tribune in Galway for twelve years before going freelance. She worked for all of the Irish national and tabloid papers covering news and courts, before switching solely to features and

    health, mainly for The Irish Times. She now lives in Blarney where she is married with three children, and a very cute cavapoo.
