When food turns into a coping strategy, willpower isn't the answer. In this episode, I sit down with coach and author Paul Dermody to unpack the psychology behind overeating.

Why "all-or-nothing" backfires, how to build calm around food and simple practices that create real change.

We talk identity, environment design, weekends vs. weekdays and how to measure progress without obsessing over the scales. If you've ever said "I know what to do, I just don't do it," this one's for you.

Listen in for: practical frameworks, compassionate mindset shifts and small daily actions that compound.

What drives a man to cycle from Roscommon to Australia across deserts, mountains and months of uncertainty — all in the name of mental health?

In this episode, I sat down with Fergal Guihen, who turned an almost impossible idea into a life-changing reality, raising funds for North West STOP, a charity close to his heart.

We talk about what truly happens inside your mind when you're thousands of miles from home, the power of purpose when motivation fades and how solitude can reshape your perspective on life, fear and faith.

From sleeping under stars in foreign countries to fighting doubt and exhaustion, this conversation goes beyond endurance it's about humanity, resilience and finding meaning when the road gets very rough.

Tune in to hear what Biking from Roscommon to Oz can teach you about your own inner journey.
