What?? Our last episode of the season?? I can’t believe we’ve reached episode 12 already! I have had so much fun making this podcast and sharing it all with you. I’ve learned tonnes and hope you have too. Before I tell you about our fabulous guests this week, I have to let you in on my latest and greatest news!
Dermot Whelan Live – The Busy and Wrecked Tour is coming to a theatre near you! Tickets go on sale from Friday 24th May so check out www.dermotwhelan.com for all the details and I can’t wait to get back out on the road and meet you all. The show will be a mix of comedy, craic, meditation & inspiration and hopefully an evening where you can relax, 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 have to be over 14.
And if you missed my last tour Mind Full then you’re in luck because you can catch it again in November! I’ll be doing two special shows, one at the Púca Festival in Trim, County Meath and also at the gorgeous new Lark Concert Hall in Balbriggan, Dublin. Tickets for those also go on sale next Friday 24th May so grab them while you can! You can also find me at Electric Picnic on Aug 17th too!
Back to The Mind Full Podcast and in this brand-new episode we ask the question ‘Does Gratitude Really Work?’
We hear a lot about gratitude these days. Catchy slogans like “Attitude of Gratitude” are plastered over mugs, tea towels and t-shirts the world over. But is there real science behind it and, if so, just what is the correct way to practice it so that we see real tangible benefits? Well, one incredible lady who can truly vouch for its effectiveness is this week’s special guest. I am so happy to bring you this wonderful conversation with an amazing lady at the top of her game!
Angela Scanlon has recently taken over from Graham Norton at Virgin Radio in the UK presenting her own weekend show, has been a regular face on RTÉ, BBC and Channel 4 TV over the last ten years, appearing in shows like BBC’s One Show, Robot Wars, Your Home Made Perfect and Strictly Come Dancing.
Heavily involved in fashion from an early age, she has fronted campaigns for the likes of Louis Vuitton and has written a bestselling book Joyrider – How Gratitude Can Get You the Life You Really Want. And it’s that gratitude we want to zone in on in this episode. Angela speaks to me from her UK home and talks about how insecurity and imposter syndrome had her struggling badly at a time when everyone thought she was living the perfect life. Learn how her finding gratitude shaped how she perceives the world and how her new star role on radio has come just at the right time.
But what about the all-important science of gratitude? Well, we have an incredible scientific heavy-hitter to unpack the science stuff and get you set up for real, tangible brain-boosting benefits! Joining me to uncover and explain the fascinating neuroscience of gratitude is medical doctor, psychologist, behavioral neuroscientist and neurotechnology expert Dr. Michael Keane! Nobody knows the brain like Michael and his easy going and accessible approach will be just what you need to unlock the true power of a grateful mindset. What an episode to end the series on!
Thank you all SO much for listening! Stay tuned for Season 2 coming real soon and watch out for lots of fun stuff coming over the next weeks and months too!
