Win Happy Podcast

On today's podcast I chatted with Occupational Therapist, Nerella Chauvin who lives just outside Budapest in Hungary with her family.
This busy career professional who was running her own successful practice turned 50 last summer and suddenly her life was turned upside down.
She lay on the bed with a cup of coffee and started checking some emails - when she woke after what felt like a nap, she had a concerned audience at the foot of her bed. She had a seizure and had just come around.
Tests diagnosed that not only did she have Epilepsy but she also had a condition called Organic Amnestic Syndrome, which causes memory loss.
This occupational therapist who had specialised in helping people with epilepsy was now suddenly the patient who could no longer work or drive and the simplest of life tasks carried many practical risks.
While the doctors are still experimenting with drugs to stabilise her condition Nerella has had to learn how to live again and she does this through a new lens; "Happiness is Waking up" she says.
Your health is everything, and we need to appreciate it

On part two of a two part podcast I welcome back the very lovely Ellie, founder of Unbridling the Soul.
Ellie tells us about the dog Max and what she had to do to help return him to normal having discovered what the problem was after talking to him.
She chats about her ability to communicate with animals and the spirit world and how this is used in her work to heal people and animals.
She speaks in detail about her range of services which are offered both in person and remotely and she urges all of us to be more curious about ourselves, to scratch that itch and discover what might be lurking deep inside us.
Ellie helped our beloved dog Bert who very sadly passed away last October and broke our hearts.

On today's podcast I have a very different conversation with Ellie the founder of Unbridling the Soul in West Cork.
The very lovely Ellie provides a very unusual range of healing services both in person and remotely, but not via the Zoom or Microsoft Teams variety.
I met with her at her beautiful home in idyllic West Cork at the foot of Mount Gabriel which she shares with her daughter and some horses that she uses as part of her work.
Ellie chats about her early life and how this brought about an extremely strong connection to animals, which has continued to this day. As well as developing the ability to communicate with animals she also has the ability to see and communicate with the spirits that surround us.
Following her curiosity and exploring these unusual gifts led her away from an early career as a chef to founding her own business that helps people and animals who may be in some distress.
To better understand what she does she shares a very unusual story about a dog called Max and the spirits that were disturbed when the house where he lived was renovated.

A huge happy new year to all of my listeners.
I thought the first podcast of the new year should at least bring a smile or two to your face!
On today's podcast I had the pleasure of chatting with comedian, author and presenter Adam Christing about his latest book 'The Laughter Factor'.
While we all love to laugh, what role does laughter have in the modern workplace?
Adam chats about the importance of laughter in the workplace, some of the do's and don'ts and some tips and tricks you may use to introduce humour, even if it doesn't come so naturally to you.
Adam says "you can bring your people together with humour and heart"

On today's podcast I chatted with my son Brendan Canty as we come to the end of what was an amazing year for him.

The first movie that he co-wrote and directed, 'Christy' hit movie screens around the world winning awards and great acclaim and his first full feature documentary 'Gaeltra' has just premiered at the Cork International Film Festival and scooped the Best New Irish Feature Award.
The future is looking very bright and from the outside looking in, it may look as though he enjoys instant success at every turn, but as we all know nothing happens like that.
On the podcast Brendan chats about these successes, but more importantly he takes us through all the other stepping stone projects that came before these where he learned his craft, from the first school projects, music videos and commercial work.
In any career you can't cheat the learning curve, but you need to seize the opportunities along the way when you can gain all of that lvaluable earning.
He also chats about the perils about working in such an unpredictable industry and how to keep yourself sane in the process!
