The Good Glow

This week, Georgie speaks to Kate Gaffey. Kate speaks to Georgie about transitioning from a corporate job to the world of wellness. She teaches yoga, raves about the importance of being in nature and teaches women how to use their cycle in order to take better care of themselves. Today she speaks to Georgie about the moon, how she practices gratitude and how we can all make little changes to improve our lives every single day. 

This week, Georgie speaks to Andrew Fitzsimons. Andrew is a brand founder, celebrity hair stylist and a trailblazer. He moved from Dublin to Paris when he was 16 and hasn't looked back since. He worked hard and proved himself in a tough industry getting his big break in New York when he worked for Mariah Carey. Celebrities don't faze him and his mission is to be his best, creative, authentic self. He's here today to talk about his new AF collection for Primark, how he serves himself everyday through meditation and what it's like to be home. I just know you'll LOVE this episode x

This week, I talk to Keith Walsh. 2FM's Keith has become an advocate for taking care of your mental health after opening up last year. He told his followers that he didn't want to feel 'just grand' anymore and had decided to go to therapy. Today, he speaks to me about his journey and how asking for help is always a good idea. This week after the death of Caroline Flack, I felt I needed to record a podcast around mental health. I struggled myself after I was diagnosed with cancer in 2017. Today, we have an open and honest conversation and I hope if you are struggling you can see light at the end of the tunnel. I heard something interesting that Gerry Hussey said last week, he said 'we are the light'. And I think that's a lovely way to look at things. I hope if you are going through a tough time this podcast gives you hope that's all I ever wanted to achieve with it. Please call Pieta House if you feel like you need help or you are in crisis on 1800 247 247. I went to counselling last year and hand on my heart it was the best thing I ever did. Lots of love to you all on a tough week 

This week, Georgie speaks to Brigid also known as Bridey Bunch Triplets on Instagram. Brigid had just settled down with her partner in Dublin, when they decided the time was right to try for a baby. They got pregnant straight away and were floored when her 12 week scan showed she was having triplets. Brigid tells Georgie about how she dealt with the shock, what they did to prepare and how overwhelming it was to find 35 medical professionals in the room as she gave birth. Brigid is so honest in describing what life was like with 3 small babies, how easier life became when she asked for help and all the madness in between. In particular one day, when her buggy got stuck at the tills of her local supermarket as chaos unfolded around her. 

This week, Georgie speaks to speak to Nikki Whelan. Nikki is a mum of two with another baby on the way. She's built two successful businesses Backstreet Dance and Little Bow Pip with her mum Tina, her business partner and best friend. Nikki's family were left devastated when Tina was diagnosed with leukemia and passed away shortly afterwards. Today, Nikki tells me about her beautiful mum, how they navigate life without her and how although she is not here physically, she is with them all every single day. 

This week, Georgie speaks to Clodagh Campbell. Clodagh always knew she was adopted but had such a happy childhood she never felt the need to know who her biological family were. When she was 17, her Mum and Dad sat her down and told her that her mum's family were her biological family. Clodagh speaks to Georgie about how her family navigated that time in their lives and everything she's learned since then. 

This week, Georgie speaks to Pamela Laird. Pamela started working in the beauty industry when she was in her teens. She opened her first nail bar as she was leaving school and since then has gone on to build her brand Moxi Loves. She suffered a major knockback when her hero product had to be discontinued under EU law. But she picked herself up and continued on and won a place on 2019's UK Apprentice. With an audience of up to 10 million per night, Pamela took on her biggest challenge yet. Today, she speaks to me about what goes on behind the scenes of the show, how she stays resilient and what advice she has for people who want to start their own business.  

This week, Georgie speaks to Claire Moore. Claire was living and working in Hong Kong when she began to feel really unwell. She was diagnosed with a benign brain tumour and underwent treatment and surgery all while so far from home. Her strength and determination got her through and along the way discovered the importance of self care. Claire is  strong, brave and so funny as she takes Georgie through the year that changed her life so much.

This week, Georgie speaks to Irish actress and wellness advocate Leigh Arnold. Leigh spends most of the year in Ibiza where her and her husband Steve run wellness retreats. They set up their wellness business after losing their son Flynn shortly after he was born. Leigh speaks to Georgie about this devastating time and how she turned to nature, meditation and yoga throughout her healing process. Georgie is so thankful to Leigh for opening up about this incredibly different time and is in awe of her strength. She is a true lady and this really is a very special podcast. 

This week, Georgie speaks to Denise Kenny Byrne. Denise's husband Ciaran spoke on Season 4 of The Good Glow podcast about his leukemia diagnosis in January 2019. Denise never left his side as he faced treatment and one hell of a journey. Their positivity and strength captured the hearts of thousands of people and now as Ciaran recovers they are starting their new chapter. Denise speaks to Georgie about her role in his recovery, how they go to bed laughing every single night and how the support of their friends, family and complete strangers got them through the tough times.
