When Flaherty meets the mysterious Buddha Mór in Reilly’s cocktail pit, he asks the big question:

“Are you a god, a wizard, or a man?”

The Buddha’s answer?

“I am alive.”

This week on Win the Moment, a parable unfolds—with a 36-year-old headmaster who won’t get out of bed, a mistaken identity involving cataracts, and a timely reminder that being alive is the special occasion.

Funny. Wise. And radiantly enlightening.

In this special midsummer episode, Pádraic guides you through a powerful 5-minute Buck Moon visualisation — written to help you reset, refocus, and rise stronger into the second half of the year.

Rooted in the Irish landscape and laced with timeless wisdom, this is more than a meditation — it’s a call to clarity, courage, and quiet confidence.

Whether you’re in a season of change, challenge, or breakthrough, this visualisation will help you:

• Reclaim your inner strength
• Let go of what no longer serves
• Visualise who you’re becoming
• And Win the Moment, again and again

Best listened to at dawn, dusk, or under the light of the full moon.
