Monday, Monday, so good to me…..
Hello mindfull-ers….This week, we’re strapping on our runners and hitting the ground running as we sprint into the world of Motivation, Discipline, and Fitness. And let me tell you, it’s going to be a workout for the mind, body and soul!
Can I ask, is there anything in your life right now that you wanted to see happen but it hasn’t quite worked out that way? Is there a work goal, a relationship goal, a financial goal or something in your life that you had hoped would unfold but it didn’t – or certainly not the way you’d imagined?
Don’t worry the purpose of this episode is absolutely not to make you feel bad or useless or give you another stick to beat yourself over the head with! Quite the opposite. This episode is about showing you, without judgment, the reasons why maybe you didn’t see that goal materialise. And most importantly it is about giving you the techniques and understanding so that next time you see something in your life you’d like to reach for, it just may happen!
Together, we’ll look at why discipline is so important. While some people think it’s about locking yourself in a room and never seeing the light of day again, I like to think of it as the superhero cape that gives you the power to conquer your goals and kick butt in life. Because it lays the foundation for everything we want to achieve in life; the driving force behind our actions, the fuel that keeps us moving forward, even when the going gets tough. And when we combine discipline with motivation and fitness, we create a powerful recipe for success.
The Mind Full Podcast is the latest offering in Dermot Whelan’s highly successful Mind Full adventure. The Mind Full Podcast is a home for people whose minds are…well, full! Dermot explores the topics that can help us to calm a frantic mind, understand our behaviour and explore our own potential.

**Firstly, I have more big news about The Mind Full Podcast Live! If you missed out on getting tickets for our live show at the Sugar Club June 14th then stay tuned to the end of this episode because we have some major news that could have you smiling like a maniac!**
Is there anything in your life right now that you wanted to see happen but it hasn’t quite worked out that way? Is there a work goal, a relationship goal, a financial goal or something in your life that you had hoped would unfold but it didn’t – or certainly not the way you’d imagined?
This episode is about showing you, without judgment, the reasons why maybe you didn’t see that goal materialize. This week, I’m joined by a man who has made discipline and determination his career. Greg O’Shea is an Olympian, has also represented his country in athletics and in 2019 he won Love Island UK. After the show, he found himself struggling mentally as he turned away from fame and found himself facing retirement from the sport he had dedicated his life to. Now an iron man competitor, instructor and healthy living entrepreneur with his fitness training app ‘Bettr with Greg O’Shea’ and a successful TV presenter, Greg shares his insights about the true life-changing power of exercise and how your own path is the only one worth following.
To also help us find that sweet spot between motivation and high-fiving our successes is my incredible technical guest this week, multi award-winning brainhacker and mental illusionist Keith Barry. Keith’s incredible skills and psychological understanding of how we behave has earned him some serious accolades. He has Featured on over 40 international TV shows and networks including many times on The Ellen Show, The Jimmy Kimmel Show, MTV, Discovery Channel, CBS and many others – including his own TV Special ‘The Keith Barry Experience’ here in Ireland. Keith was the Consultant on 2 Hollywood Blockbusters and his all-time Top 25 Ted Talk has amassed over 25 million views on the Ted website alone.
As always, we also have our weekly guided meditation and I read out some listener correspondence. So sit back, relax and enjoy!

From Love Island Winner to Fitness Guru:
Joining me for this week’s topic are two remarkable guests who know a thing or two about achieving greatness. First up, fellow Limerick man and all-round inspiration, Greg O’Shea. You might know him as the Olympic athlete, Rugby Star, and the winner of Love Island UK. But did you know that behind those chiselled abs lies a story of discipline, dedication, and determination?
Greg spills the beans on how exercise can transform your life in ways you never expected, sharing some truths that might just make you spit out your protein shake!
Unravel The Mysteries of Motivation and Discipline
And if that wasn’t enough to get your heart racing, I’m also joined by the one and only Keith Barry. Keith is an international brain hacker who has blown thousands of minds over the years and worked with some of the biggest stars in the world. Together, we’ll unpack the secrets of motivation and discipline, and how mastering your mind can lead to limitless possibilities.
But hey, in all this talk of discipline and motivation, let’s stick to our guns here and remember not take ourselves too seriously. Life’s too short for that! It really is okay to stumble, to fall, and to laugh at yourself along the way. After all, the most important thing is to keep moving forward, one step at a time.

Let’s wrap this up with even more exciting news, due to popular demand, we’ve added a second ‘Extra Date’ for The Mind Full Podcast Live show at The Sugar Club. Tune in to find out how to get your tickets for our second date!!

This week, I sit down with a woman who is enjoying the most beautiful phase of success and fulfillment. Deirdre O’Kane is packing out comedy theaters across the country, has lit up your TV screens across the UK and Ireland in shows like Last One Laughing, Paths to Freedom, Moone Boy, Gogglebox and Dancing with the Stars and she joined me this week to discuss Paths to Wisdom.
As an actor, Deirdre scooped an IFTA for her performance in the powerful film Noble and is the driving force behind Comic Relief Ireland. The beautiful thing about this podcast is that we often get to go places with our guests that maybe they rarely get a chance to explore and this episode is definitely one of those occasions. It’s a fascinating, warm and really inspiring discussion and I can’t wait for you to hear it.
It’s fair to say, we see a side to Deirdre you don’t often see in this conversation as she takes us on a journey through dealing with the life-threatening illness of her husband, the gift of performance, finding a new confidence and energy after raising children and the spiritual tools she has used to bring the colour out in everything she does.
If you wanna catch Deirdre on stage you’re in luck! Her new comedy tour “O’Kaning it” has just kicked off so go book your tickets, they’re going fast!
