  • Triumph Over Trauma with Katriona O'Sullivan
    Jun 8 2025

    Please note: This episode contains references to sexual abuse, which some listeners may find triggering.


    My guest this week is the best-selling author & psychologist Katriona O’Sullivan. Not only does Katriona have a life-story that is nothing short of exceptionally powerful, she is the author of the phenomenal book Poor, which spent over 40 weeks at No.1 on the Irish non-fiction charts, won Biography of the Year and the Listeners' Choice Award at the Irish Book Awards, and is now being adapted for the stage at the Gate Theatre during the Dublin Theatre Festival from Sep 26.


    Katriona speaks openly about her childhood journey, which was marked by extreme poverty, neglect, and abuse, to becoming a respected academic and advocate for educational equity. In this fascinating conversation we look at healing from trauma (with a big and little ‘t’) , how mindfulness can be harmful if not approached correctly, and Katriona shares her own healing journey through therapy and much more. This is a powerful conversation about compassion, purpose, and how just surviving isn’t enough - we need to build a world where more people don’t have to.

  • How to Hug Your Inner Goblin with Ruby Wax
    Jun 1 2025

    Chat Shows, Donald Trump & Unruly Roommates!


    This week I’m joined by comedy legend, bestselling author, and mindfulness teacher Ruby Wax.


    From HBO to Oxford, chat shows to silent retreats, Ruby has done it all and brought her razor-sharp wit with her. She’s faced down depression (or her “unruly roommate,” as she calls it), taken on fame, and even once roasted Donald Trump at 33,000 feet!


    Ruby’s no stranger to the chaos of the mind, and in this episode we dive into how she’s learned to manage hers with humour, honesty, and a Master’s Degree in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy from Oxford. We chat about mental breakdowns, people-pleasing, 30-day silent retreats and much more.

  • "Help! I'm Too Busy For Sex!" with Sex Educator Jenny Keane
    May 25 2025

    This week I’m joined by Sexologist, Educator and quite possibly Ireland’s most joyful advocate for pleasure - Jenny Keane.


    Having first featured on The Mind Full Podcast last year in Season One, Jenny is making a welcomed return to the series. Jenny communicates the topic of pleasure in a wonderfully accessible and articulate way. So it’s no wonder why her workshops are so popular and why her live shows always sell out in an instant!


    This week, we’re talking about why pleasure has fallen off of the To-Do List and how to bring it firmly back. Jenny and her creation Oh! Moment has a commitment to enhancing sexual wellbeing through holistic sex education workshops, events, body-safe sex toys and more. Jenny uses a trauma-informed approach and, with her PhD studies in clinical sexology, enriches the content and practices she shares with such delightful ease and humour.


    So, if your libido has gone into hibernation or your idea of foreplay is syncing Google Calendars, this episode is for you - it’s about making time for what matters, starting with ourselves!


    If you're new to the series, why not take the time to go back and catch up on the wonderful interviews that you may have missed!
