Episode Description
Brian Pennie, from Dublin in Ireland, was a chronic heroin addict for 15 years. Just 8 years later, he is a lecturer, a keynote speaker, and a radio presenter. His recently released book, Bonus Time, tells the story of his journey back from the dead and outlines the habits and practices that he now uses to stay safe and maximize his wellness in a sustainable, wholesome way. For Brian, balance is key and he has written courses to help others access their drive to survive and live their best life too. Brian uses self-designed techniques, which he discusses in the interview, to give him the structure and stability that he needs to stay happy and healthy. For Brian sobriety is not the opposite of addiction, awareness is. Morning routines, mindfulness, meditation, and self-care are key elements of Brian's principles-based philosophy for better living. Change Is Possible, but you have to turn up every single day and make values-based decisions as opposed to emotionally charged decisions.

At the intersection of epi-genetics, neuro plasticity and psycho-neuro immunology is our ever increasing awareness of neuro-chemistry and the mind-body connect. You are what you think about. Where attention goes, energy flows. In other words, as your body keeps score, the servant can become the master. Your thoughts can knock you out of homeostasis and make you sick. Conversely when you learn how to get your emotional needs met, healthily and in balance, you cannot be mentally, emotionally and/or by extension, physically unwell. Through this empowering series of light-bearing interviews with captivating guests, Síle Ui Chiaráin from Ireland will help you to gain objective perspective on your own story. Stay tuned to learn how to manage your self-talk, quiet your inner critic, as well as build a healthy relationship with anxiety. It’s like doing a bicep curl for your brain.

Having recently retired from her post as a primary school teacher in Ireland, in a career that spanned thirty years, Síle continues to educate, inspire and mentor in her new incarnation as a life and business coach, psychotherapist and growth strategist. Síle works with formulas to help clients achieve mind-derived health optimisation. Teaching individuals and business communities about Causing an Effect as opposed to Cause and Effect, Síle is taking blueprints for best practice, from philosophy, to initiation to mastery, one recovery programme at a time. Culture is key, when it comes to growth and expansion. Síle’s WHOLE and ONE master plan frames the 3As of adaptability, authenticity and autonomy as non-negotiable in the architecture of adaptable change-mentality, at individual and organisational levels, for optimum results.
Thoughts are the locomotive to living intentionally, as opposed to living out of habit. You choose your thoughts. Síle expounds the value of meta-cognition as a launch pad for achieving desired outcomes. When you learn how to think about what you’ve been thinking about, you are no longer the programme, you are the observer of the programme, and from here you can change practices to change outcomes. Knowledge, particularly psycho-education as well as practices such as mindfulness, gratitude and self-care are the tools of the trade if you wish to live deliberately and optimise results.
