<p>Today on the show, we’re diving headfirst into the wonderful, wild world of psychedelics. No, not the type that leads to hugging trees and marrying your toaster! I’m talking about real, science-backed, brain-rewiring, potentially life-changing therapy.</p><br><p>And helping us navigate this trippy territory are two absolute legends - Kathryn and Mick Ledden, a psychiatrist and psychotherapist partnership who are helping to redefine mental health treatment in Ireland. They’re part of a groundbreaking team that includes Trinity College Dublin, working on psychedelic research that’s turning heads, healing hearts, and might just change how we treat depression, PTSD, addiction—you name it. Their co creation PsyCare is a pioneering non-profit organisation which provides essential psychological care and education at events and festivals nationwide.</p><br><p>They’ve got the science, they’ve got the soul, and—thankfully for us—they’ve got beautiful way of making all this stuff understandable, accessible and exciting. Kathryn, a clinical research fellow at TCD, is engaged in groundbreaking clinical trials using psilocybin and 5-MeO-DMT to treat various mental health conditions. Meanwhile, Mick facilitates psilocybin retreats in the Netherlands with his organisation Inwardbound, whose vision is in their own words “to provide to a platform to facilitate people’s self-exploration: a safe and legal container for this process, in a supportive, non-judgemental and transparent way. To promote inner transformation, personal breakthroughs, self-growth, creativity and inner healing.” </p><br><p>So stick the kettle on, open your mind (and maybe your chakras, if they’re handy), and get ready to chat about mushrooms, mental health, and how Ireland might be about to lead the world in psychedelic therapy.</p><br><p>If you're new to the series, why not take the time to go back and catch up on the wonderful interviews that you may have missed!</p><br><p>Visit <a href="http://www.dermotwhelan.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.dermotwhelan.com</a> for more information and don't forget my new book Busy and Wrecked is out now!</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

<p>This week’s fascinating guest is ornithologist and birdsong enthusiast Seán Ronayne. Seán is on a mission to record every single one of the 200 birdsongs in Ireland and his journey to do so has been nothing short of incredible. Seán’s work is proof that nature is something that we can truly connect to through the simple act of listening.</p><br><p>Seán’s wonderful book Nature Boy: A Journey of Birdsong and Belonging was the winner of the Dubray Books biography of the year and when you hear him speak you’ll understand exactly why. Seán invites us to slow down and truly listen - not just to ourselves, but to the world around us. Through his work, Sean reminds us of the deep connection between nature and presence, showing how the simple act of listening can ground us in the moment and open our hearts to wonder. In this conversation we also look at the role his neurodivergence diagnosis has played in unlocking his passions and self discovery, how love has opened up his world and how a near fatal illness transformed the way he sees the world.</p><br><p>If you want to catch Seán on his nationwide tour of theatres in which he discusses his fascinating work, visit <a href="http://www.irishwildlifesounds.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.irishwildlifesounds.com</a> for all tour dates.</p><br><p>If you're new to the series, why not take the time to go back and catch up on the wonderful interviews that you may have missed!</p><br><p>Visit <a href="http://www.dermotwhelan.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.dermotwhelan.com</a> for more information and don't forget my new book Busy and Wrecked is out now!</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

<p>My special guest this week is leadership entrepreneur, best-selling author and podcast host Mory Fontanez. Mory joins me from the US to talk about the unmistakable power of intuition - how to connect with it, how to listen to it and how to distinguish our intuition from that fearful voice that can be holding us back.</p><br><p>Mory has spent almost 20 years managing crisis and global strategy for Fortune 500 companies and public personalities. Having become disillusioned with the system that chose fear over inner wisdom, in 2018 she founded 822 Group with the aim of realigning leaders with their untapped potentials. In doing this work, Mory began to see a deep desire from people around the world for a deeper connection to purpose and to their intuitive wisdom.</p><br><p>This conversation is a true gem and one that I'm so glad to be bringing to you.</p><br><p>If you're new to the series, why not take the time to go back and catch up on the wonderful interviews that you may have missed!</p><br><p>Visit <a href="http://www.dermotwhelan.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.dermotwhelan.com</a> for more information.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
