July 27, 2025 "Gwen Phelan" escaping abuse and finding her "quiet place"
In this powerful and emotional episode, I sit down with author Gwen Phelan to talk about her new book The Quiet Place — a deeply personal and courageous account of surviving domestic abuse.

Gwen opens up about the emotional, psychological, and physical trauma she endured, the impact it had on her and the strength it took to finally break free. She shares how writing the book helped her heal and why she hopes her story will offer support and hope to others in similar situations.

💬 Topics we discuss:

The early signs of abuse

The turning point that led Gwen to leave

Life after escaping domestic violence

The emotional toll of writing her story

Advice for anyone who feels trapped or afraid

This conversation is raw, honest, and inspiring — a must-watch for anyone interested in stories of survival, motherhood, and resilience.

📚 Get Gwen’s book The Quiet Place on amazon and kindle!

March 09, 2024 Ballymuns Dean Kenny and Jay Byrne
Well last night I got to have these ballymun lads @dean.kenny.9843 and Jay Byrne @ballymun_running2024 on @having_the_chats_podcast . Dean has just started @podcastkitchentalk as he absolutely smashes his recovery, and Jay celebrated 1 year of sobriety last week! Both lads are now helping others out of addiction and into recovery through unity of weekly sea swims and group 5k runs amongst other things. Their dms are open to anyone that needs it and I have to say these lads are so sound and easy to talk to. I really think these two are going to help more people than they even know! Hats off to u lads and me and chris will be at the sea swim next week!
This episode will be available tomorrow on Spotify and youtube! Give the lads a follow and see their journey! #addiction #recovery #havingthechats #seaswims #ballymunrunning
