✨ Why I Help People ✨

I don’t want you suffering in silence — because I know what that feels like.
I’ve been there: overworked, stressed, burned out, and silently struggling.

Helping people is one of the greatest joys of my life. Watching someone move from exhaustion and confusion to clarity, energy, and confidence is why I do what I do.

Here’s how I can support you:
🔹 Find calm when stress feels overwhelming
🔹 Build resilience and bounce back after setbacks
🔹 Create balance between work and life (without guilt)
🔹 Rediscover energy and motivation when burnout has taken over
🔹 Gain clarity in decision-making and direction in life
🔹 Feel less lonely and more connected — to yourself and others

You don’t have to carry everything on your own. Sometimes, one conversation can change everything. 💫

👉 If this resonates well with you, let’s have a conversation.

Life is busy and many of us will suffer from burnout and being overwhelmed. I have been there myself in the past. We all need help, opening up and looking for help is not a weakness but a great strength. Allow me to help you.Reach Your Full PotentialYou have the pen

As the 2024 Olympics have come to a close, we look back at the many times throughout the games where fine margins were the difference between winning a medal or not. The margins between success and failure were so fine in some cases the thickness of a finger nail the difference. The elation, smiles, tears of joy, celetrations were for all to see from the medal winners but for all the competitors who gave their all but were beaten by the finest of margins “take a bow” we also applaud you for the superb effort.

To train so hard physically and mentally over the last four years and be beaten by the finest of margins can be very hard to take. It can be mentally draining, going through it all over again in your head wondering ‘how did I miss out on a medal’. Ruminating negative thoughts can start to spiral out of control. You may start questioning yourself, your ability, your beliefs and wonder where the renewed motivation for the next four years is going to come from.

Finding the strength and awareness to stop your mind racing is all part of the healing process. Your mind will start to slow down once you take the time out to recharge and regroup. The burning desire will return, the dreams you had will reignite once again and the pain of loss will subside. Tapping into the great team of people around you will be critical around this time in helping you refocus on the journey ahead.

How many stories of Olympians have we heard throughout the years where set back after set back, near miss after near miss all changed like the flick of a switch? Sometimes the universe has a way of testing your resilience to see will we keep going, keep getting up and keep staying positive when your dream is starting to fade away. These games may not have been your time for a medal but what you have learned and take into your future is the key to the answer.
The fine margins you need and the stones that need to be overturned will all fall into place over the coming weeks and months. The exciting journey ahead awaits you with open arms, take this wonderful opportunity with a smile on your face!

Let the next chapter begin with renewed hope that the greatest winner of all is people coming together to celebrate the Olympic Games.

Are you getting the best results from your day or are falling a little short?

Are you giving the majority of your time to your work, sport and cutting corners when it comes to family, friends or your own physical or mental wellbeing?

Are you feeling stressed and tired but cutting corners when it comes to rest and sleep?

Finding the extra few percent in whatever you want from life is there if you look a little closer and repare some of the corners that were cut ✂️

What are your non negotiables in getting the best from your day?

Do you ever feel like curling up in a ball, hibernating or just looking for a hideaway for some peace and quiet? The world we live in today is so fast paced our minds are screaming out for down time but do we listen? Between screaming voices inside our head saying do this, do that, be here, be there. Being pulled and dragged every way. Sound familiar?

Sometimes there can be no let up from one end of the day to the other. You may often wake during the night with the screaming voices again or you wonder will this ever give me a break.

There is nothing wrong with sometimes saying ‘enough’ to the pressures at work ‘enough’ to the pressures at home or ‘enough’ to people coming to you all the time looking for the answers. There is nothing wrong with you finding a nice hideaway so that you can have me time. A safe place where nobody interrupts, a place where the healing and re charging occurs.

Awareness is key in knowing when your pressure cooker is about to blow its top. Dailey and weekly time for yourself can often be a big step to take but the results will be truly amazing. When we pencil me time in your everyday, your body, mind and soul will be grateful beyond words. When we recharge we show up with more energy, more patience and most importantly we show up as the best version of ourselves.

My haven for peace and quiet is the great outdoors, whether it’s hiking a mountain, a calm stroll through a local woodland, having fun and laughter with friends and family or taking in the sounds of a beautiful stream or river or just lying soaking up the sunshine rays with a gentle breeze on my face. That to me is magic

When you feel the world is getting on top of you, say ‘enough is enough’ it’s time for me.

Life is tough enough without adding to the suffering so let’s all be mindful of who we spend our time with.

When our energies are low, our whole systems are depleted and we run at a fraction of our potential

Surround yourself with simple but amazing things and find a tribe our build one that keeps your battery charged

Believe you can and your half way there 😊

How many times have you had a good idea and someone said ‘a sure that wouldn’t work’

A lot of the time they hadn’t even tried it themselves our it didn’t sit right with their own beliefs

If you have a good idea that you feel is going to work don’t tell it to a small minded person

Believe in yourself and like the frog be deaf to the nay sayers

Good decisions are not made by those who are running on empty (read that first line again). Burnout is increasingly an issue among workers today. The fast-paced nature of the workplace, coupled with the expectation of constant availability, can make employees feel overwhelmed and stressed.

The question is are we going to do something about it? Or are we going to keep burying the head in the sand. The human body, mind and soul is an incredible work of art, taking us from A to B, figuring out complex ideas and doing things now, that were unachievable and unimaginable from years gone by.

Yes, it’s good to push the body and mind so we move outside our comfort zone but we have to see ourselves like an elite athlete where there is downtime, rest, sleep and time where we can slow the mind down. Like anything in life if you keep putting enough strain on something it will eventually break.

After years of pushing hard, I saw the effects of burnout myself. I had little energy, little motivation and little joy and happiness but thankfully at this stage change did happen for me. It’s just unfortunate that we have to reach this stage before we stop taking our bodies for granted and appreciate the true gift we have been given.

Good intentions aren’t enough to create meaningful change. You have to be religious in keeping the small promises you make with yourself regarding your physical and mental well-being otherwise it’s a vicious circle of being overwhelmed, stressed and constantly tired. The daily promises you make with yourself will keep this human work of art in pristine condition and the results you will receive will be amazing.

Being rootless at times is the key for your wellbeing, saying ‘No’ to thing’s and people that give you no energy and saying ‘Yes’ to good food, rest, fun and joyful journeys is the key.

Always remember taking care of yourself doesn’t mean me first, it means me too.

Thank you to Grow Mental Health Limerick in having me in as a speaker last night.

I had a lovely evening of meeting and chatting with wonderful people. Getting the word out there about mental health and the services that are available is never more important.

Reaching out in time of need is a great strength, not a weakness. Taking the first step is so important.

Mental Health issues are at an all time high, we have to come together as a united team to start making a difference and turn this around.

Every new day is an opportunity to do good in the world. As we speak there are many people suffering in silence with mental health issues…

Someone you cross paths with today maybe one of those people. Be kind with your words and give people a safe space to be heard…

We are all on a journey together, helping each other along the way is a great start. The power is when we unite together as one.

It’s hard to make good decisions if you’re burnt out, stressed and running on empty…

Taking time out is the 🔑 otherwise mistakes will happen, stress levels will rise and productivity will decrease…

Today was a morning to clear the To-Do-List and head for the majestic views from the ‘Graves Of The Leinster Men’ in Tipperary…

A snow capped hill was an added bonus which is always a delight and also brings out the inner child in us 😊

Make nature the place to recharge, to slow the busy mind down and increase happiness levels 🌿
