Why are we here? What is our purpose on this realm of eternal torment? What’s the story with those food influencers who make a point of staring into the camera as they take a bite of whatever that thing is, and then chew really loudly until it makes you feel like the only thing left to do, is to put all your belongings in storage and move somewhere on the globe where the smart phone isn’t as widespread yet. But this week’s episode is about that very thing. Why are we here? What is life? What is the afterlife? The big Micka size questions. What is God? and why the hell did the Catholic Church ruin spirituality for all of Ireland? For me I’ve been flat out and bet into figuring out what is going on here for a long long time. I think some people don’t really care, and I am jealous of those people. My whole life has been one big Easter egg hunt, except instead of creme eggs inside, there’s just different drugs and deities. But they only ever speak in tongues, so I never really figure anything out. I do genuinely feel though, that every day another piece of the puzzle comes together, in this great unravelling that we call life. The search for spirituality seems to be less about learning, and more about remembering. Fear seems to be the barrier that keeps us from our true selves. Which makes it funny when you see that fear is all they seem to push in the news. Enjoy and love yis.

Episode 6 Existing With ADHD (Part 2)
Part 2 of the ADHD Podcast. I talk about how far this disorder can drive you to chase achievement for the wrong reasons in order to prove to yourself that you are enough, and that you are not ‘lazy’ It was very emotional going over the journey I have had in music, and also very healing to put at least some of those burnouts and mistakes down to existing with this neurodiversity. Thanks to everyone for listening and for all the lovely messages. It’s been eye opening to see how many people are suffering and benefiting from this, Huge love.

Episode 5: Existing With ADHD (Part 1)
For all my ADHD gang affiliates out there. Diagnosed and undiagnosed. I just recorded a 2 part series about what life is like with ADHD. I struggled in many different ways until I was diagnosed around a year and a half ago. In this 2 (maybe 3 part series) I’ll go through all of the symptoms, and how they manifested in my life, in the hope that other people can also relate to it. So if you are a person who thinks you have some symptoms of ADHD and are interested in more information, or if you’re already diagnosed, or even if you have a family member or close one with this condition, this series might apply to you. This is my favourite one I’ve done yet. I laughed, I nearly cried, and it all felt very healing.

Episode 4: What It’s Really Like to Give Up Alcohol
Ireland might be pound for pound the hardest place in the world to give up drinking. I wanted to do an episode based around my experiences over the last 2 years and 10 months. The good, the bad, and the mad things that I wasn’t expecting. If you get a chance and you are enjoying the podcast please give it a rating

Meditation: For People Who Feel Sad About the Way the World Is
This is a specific meditation for people who feel sad about the current state of the world. I have noticed that at the moment, the global mental health is seemingly at an all time low. I cannot remember a time, even during global planetary events, where people seemed to be struggling as much as they are now. I wanted to make a specific meditation to pay respect and to acknowledge that, but also to let people know that they are not alone.
This is a very informal intro to meditation podcast. I promise to keep it extremely honest, while not taking things too seriously. These are guided meditations and loose chats about life, spirituality, the absolute state of the world, and how we might find even a tiny bit of peace, in between the chaos and insanity of this moment in time.
Some of the episodes will be more direct meditation focussed, and some of them will be more me chatting. What I promise not to do, is to say “Imagine yourself in a lovely green field”, in a posh British accent.
