Today I’m delighted to welcome Dr Ger Moane, a psychologist, writer and shamanic practitioner whose work bridges the worlds of myth, human development and ancestral wisdom. For many years Ger was an associate professor of psychology at University College Dublin, where she specialised in human development, gender and sexuality — and that deep curiosity about what makes us human now infuses her writing with heart and depth.

Ger’s first novel, Keeper of Stones, transports us to ancient Ireland and the sacred landscapes of Newgrange, weaving myth, coming-of-age and the rhythm of nature into a story that reflects both the timeless and the timely. Her fascination with Irish myth, shamanic perspectives and our connection with the earth has resonated with readers and critics alike, helping the book reach the Irish Times bestseller list and earning praise from renowned voices in Irish literature.

I’m so honoured to have her here with us today to explore Keeper of Stones, her creative journey, and the deeper threads that connect story, spirit and our own unfolding paths.
