My final guest of Season 3 is Mary Dunne who is known as Mary in the Med. Mary shares her story of a life in New York working on Wall Street and also as a Realtor in Manhattan to then moving to Ibiza to start a new life on that beautiful island. This will be of interest to anybody going through a change whether it is something personal, changing careers or even countries.

Everyone has lightbulb moments in their lives that lead to a change. And change is a very topical word as we come out of the pandemic. People are reassessing their lives both personally and professionally and asking themselves what changes from the last two years do we want to keep.

This Emotional Intelligence Podcast has a simple premise that elicits some fascinating insights from guests from all walks of life. Every

Wednesday we will ask a special guest for 3 moments of clarity that contributed to a change in course in their life journey.

We couldn’t have picked a more inspirational person for our last episode of Season 2. The former Irish politician and serial entrepreneur Ivan Yates entered the Irish parliament aged just 21 in 1981. He rose through the ranks of the Fine Gael political party to become an Irish Government Minister for Agriculture in 1994.

By the turn of the century Ivan was being tipped as a future party leader and Taoiseach or Prime Minister of Ireland. In 2001 he left political life to concentrate on his business career. Ivan grew his Celtic bookmaker’s business to over 65 shops in Ireland and Wales. But when the recession hit in 2008, he found his business went into receivership. This led to Ivan having to go to Wales and declare bankruptcy in 2011.

Ivan then started a new career in radio broadcasting with Newstalk and he grew his national show into one of the most popular shows in Ireland. Then ever the restless man, Ivan left the show in 2020 and he has started a new business Media Masterclass advising people and presenting courses on how to deal with the media. Ivan has had many career ups and downs, but through it all his positivity, relentless energy and will to succeed shines through in this episode.

We will be returning with Season 3 in the new year so we would ask you to subscribe or follow this podcast and you will be the first to get new episodes direct to your phone in the New Year.

My guest this week is Cormac Ryan who has had an extraordinary life and he is still only in his 20s! Cormac has had a number of moments that have dramatically changed the course of his life including finding he needed a cardiac pacemaker implanted when he was just 18 whilst playing minor hurling for Dublin, who got to the All Ireland Final that same year.

In 2021 Cormac took part in the RTE documentary Unspoken, which showed his journey from being diagnosed with an eating disorder and getting treatment at the Lois Bridges clinic. Then just a few weeks after completing that treatment he undertook to cycle 6000 km from Achill in the west coast of Ireland to Athens in Greece.

What shines throughout this episode is Cormac’s will to overcome all the adversity throughout his life and the determination to help other people who are going through similar issues through his charity work. 

Every week I ask my guest for 3 moments of clarity that contributed to a change in course in their life journey. It can be anything big or small. Something that moved their life in a new direction. All my guests have one thing in common and that is they are inspirational people who when faced with adversity, whether in business or personally, see the positive way forward.

Our very special guest this week is Lynsey Bennett, who was diagnosed with terminal cervical cancer exactly a year ago. Last November the doctors told Lynsey she had just 6 to 8 months left to live. Lynsey then had to not only deal with that life changing news, but also deal with an impeding High Court case against the HSE and a number of private testing laboratories in Ireland and the US over the alleged misinterpretation of her cervical smear tests.

Every week I ask my guest for 3 moments of clarity that contributed to a change in the course of their life journey. Lynsey has had many moments over the last year that would break many people. But what shines through this uplifting interview is Lynsey’s relentless positivity, gratitude, emotional intelligence, open heart and sheer will to not only live, but enjoy her remaining time with her family and friends. Lynsey has been an inspiration to many people in Ireland who have been following her journey and you can see why in this uplifting interview.
