Gavin Meenan - The Modern Warrior Program joined us this week sharing some of his life story with us about why he moved to Sligo, working as a PT and how that has evolved over the years and much more.

Here is a bit of background the Gavin shared with us before the show too . . . 

Please share your bio and any information about your business: 

I'm 37 years of age, self employed since 2012, after I was made redundant from a job.
I started a personal training business, which has evolved into online coaching and personal development work with men. I have 2 kids and strive to maintain a healthy work/life balance

Are you a Sligo Native? If no what is the story of how you moved here?: 

From Donegal originally. Moved here for a job with Elverys Sports in 2009.

What do you love about living in Sligo?: 

The landscape, the people and the good coffee. I'm in the sea most mornings, so it's important to me to live near the coast.

If you could wave a magic wand what would you fix or bring to Sligo ie. facilities, shops, restaurants, culture/arts?: 

A central park, with facilities for kids and families.

What are you looking forward to in the future in your personal and professional life?: 

I've just launched my second book The Art of Self Acceptance, and I'm looking forward to some workshops and seminars from this in 2022, as well as writing my 3rd book. I will continue to do my best to create a positive impact in people's lives.

What are your must do Sligo recommendations? Restaurants/Walks etc.: 

ROM Gym.
Rover Coffee Lab
Hooked and Flipside Restaurant
Doorly Park and Rosses Point
