in this episode I speak with Morgan Livingstone, Canadian Child Life Specialist, Child lIfe Officer of WEChope and one of my very best friends.
Mo chats all about her work as a child life specialist, her passion about the amazing abilities of kids facing illness, trauma, end of life and loss and how to speak to your kids about their feelings during COVID.
We cry, we laugh and we could have spoken for hours.
If you have kids I highly recommend listening to Morgans experience and wisdom when it comes to little people and their feelings.

In this episode I chat with Blessing Dada. Blessing is a student in Youth & Community Development at Technological University Dublin. She is an outspoken, passionate activist on all sorts of social justice issues, especially mental health awareness (with her own lived experiences) among Black and other ethnic minority communities in Ireland.
She is also involved in organisations such as SpunOut and See Change.
I enjoyed our conversation so much. As a young Black Irish/Nigerian woman, her lived experiences are vital to understanding the lack of supports for people of colour here in Ireland in the world of mental health. As a therapist, I learned a lot during our chat about inclusivity and the importance of stepping outside my own privilege.

In this episode I chat with Heather Condren, a florist and former social care worker who started Flowerpop after she won a scholarship from Kay's Flower School in Dublin.  She lives and works in Inchicore in Dublin with her husband and two-year-old son.
In the absolute shit storm that is COVID there have been some bright bits and Heathers is one of them. A pandemic will force reassessment of a lot of things and Heather found her love of flowers led her to a brand new florist business that is taking Dublin by storm.
She tells us all about her journey, her fears, imposter syndrome and how she managed to push through all of it to create Flowerpop.
I simply adore Heathers strength and love of what she does and I eagerly await Flowerpop delivery to Cork!
