This week, I am delighted to share this episode with you which takes you on the journey that I had on both my treks to climb Mount Kilimanjaro and to reach Mount Everest Base Camp – neither of which I could have done without being armed with the right supports, prep-work and people alongside me.
In this episode you will hear audio recordings that I recorded on both journeys. I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro in spring 2004 and reached Mount Everest Base Camp just a few weeks ago.
Before I started on this whole journey, I wished that I could have listened to a podcast with someone with whom I could relate who could tell answer questions that I had such as:
-What’s the training like?
-What kind of gear do I need?
-What are the people like who take these trips?
-How fit do you need to be?
-What is altitude sickness like (and how do you avoid it?!).
Sit back, relax and enjoy as I take you on two of the most incredible journeys!
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!

Welcome to a very special pop-up episode of the Mind Full Podcast with special guest and music sensation Tom Grennan!
Tom is a phenomenal singer songwriter from the UK with proud Irish roots – and he has a brand new single out right now which he is dying to tell you all about.
His breakthrough UK #1 and BRIT-certified GOLD album ‘Evering Road’ included platinum-selling anthems ‘Little Bit Of Love’ and ‘By Your Side’ — both of which scored in the Top Three most played songs of 2021. Tom already counts four UK Top 10 singles to his name. And a hat-trick of his 2022 songs, ‘Remind Me’, ‘Not Over Yet’ with KSI and ‘Lionheart (Fearless)’ with Joel Corry, were all named in The Biggest Songs of 2022 by The Official Big Top 40.
After the incredible success of his 2023 album ‘What Ifs and Maybes’, he is back with a brand new single, ‘Shadowboxing’, out right now, a brand new album “Everywhere I went Led Me to Where I didn’t Want to Be” due for release next August and he has just announced his biggest ever UK and Ireland Arena Tour Grennan 25 which includes a Dublin date at the 3 Arena on Sep 13th.
In this fascinating conversation, Tom speaks about his creative process, self-care and much, much more.
Season Three of The Mind Full Podcast kicks off on Monday 24th March so make sure you’re subscribed to be notified of every episode. In the meantime, if you’re new to the series, why not take the time to go back and catch up and the wonderful interviews that you may have missed!

The show will be a mix of comedy, craic, meditation and inspiration and hopefully an evening where you can relax and have a laugh and pick up some useful and fun tools too. If you’ve been feeling wound up, worn down, snowed under or bowled over this is the show for you so grab your stressed-out besties and your bedraggled partners, and join me as I travel all over Ireland and beyond and we’ll un-wreck our heads and destress our lives together. Incidentally, I love to see teenagers at my shows too – you just gotta be over 14.

This week, my special guest is hilarious American-Irish comedian Des Bishop. Des opens up about his early struggles with addiction, his first AA meeting at 17 (with his Dad!), and how the world of wellness found him by accident!
In this conversation we chat about his first experiences in AA as a teenager, his beautiful relationship with his wife Hannah, finding Buddhism with Cork accents, going viral and more. We also create pure musical genius with AI during the interview!
This really is a fun, fascinating and enlightening conversation that I really can’t wait for you to hear.
