Episode #6 : Cathy O’Byrne

Business: The Swallows Trail 

Summary: In today's episode Cathy talks to us about her journey from primary school teacher to play therapist, supporting individual children and now empowering parents in supporting their own children. She also describes how important it is to look after ourselves and how she does this for herself.

Guest bio:

Cathy O Byrne is an experienced and accredited Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist and Play Therapist, now specialising in Compassionate and Empowering Online Parent Support.
She has worked as a primary school teacher, trainer, lecturer and psychotherapist in a number of settings. 
At the beginning of 2022, after almost 10 years in Private practice working therapeutically with children, teens and families, Cathy decided to pivot in her practice to try to find creative ways to make support available in more timely and accessible ways to parents who were concerned about their children's well-being and who were facing long waiting lists for services. 
Parent Support has always been a big passion of Cathy'. She has always found working with parents very energising and loves hearing about the positive benefits and impacts it is having on the families she works with.
Cathy works from a person-centred perspective to resource and empower parents towards greater awareness, presence and confidence in their parenting.  
Cathy believes that parents are often unaware of their great potential to help and support their children at home when they are getting the right support for themselves.
She supports parents of very young children right up to those who are parenting young adults with a wide variety of difficulties and issues


She advocates very  strongly for the power of the relationship when working with young people and their families.

The Club House Series 3
Episode #2 : Edel Hayes

Business: Accelerate Accounting

Summary: Our guest this week, Edel Hayes, talks to us about setting up a business that achieves many goals, supporting other small business and fitting around family life among them. She tells us how The Club supports her and that collaboration is key.

Guest bio: 
My name is Edel Hayes. I live in Kildare with my husband and two young children. I started Accelerate Accounting nearly three years ago, after many successful years in the corporate world. However, over time, I felt that my work life balance was out of sync with what my goals were and that my time was not serving my clients to the best of my abilities. I could see that small business owners could achieve amazing results if they had the confidence and clarity to use and act on their financial information. What they needed was the right knowledge and the right support. And so my mission for Accelerate is to change how business owners interact with their accountants!
