In this inspiring episode, I speak with Brónagh Davidson — founder of My Pregnancy Journals, mother of two, entrepreneur and passionate advocate for meaningful memory keeping during motherhood.
Her idea was born during her own pregnancy, when she couldn’t find a journal that truly captured the emotions, experiences and personal journey she wanted to record. Rather than settle, she created her own — and today her journals are being sold worldwide, featured in outlets and showcased at trade shows.
Brónagh believes that the memories we document during pregnancy and early motherhood become powerful keepsakes for our children in later years. Her mission goes far beyond stationery — it is about preserving connection, identity and the beauty of the motherhood journey from conception to birth.
What makes her story even more remarkable?
She manages her business while raising two children, prioritising self-care, and planning a future move to Portugal with her husband and daughters, where they will build yet another business. She truly embodies the word superwoman.
In this episode, we discuss:
• The power of journaling during motherhood
• How a personal need turned into a global brand
• Balancing business, family and self-care
• The importance of leaving a legacy
• Creating a life and business on your own terms

In this episode of the Effortless Attraction Podcast, Evelyn McAleer speaks with Karl Davidson — an engineer who had it all by his early twenties: a degree, a secure job, and excellent money. Yet, despite his success, he found himself unfulfilled, consuming and buying in search of meaning.
Karl shares how he and his wife, now represent Cashflow Club Ireland, teaching others how to shift their thinking around money, escape the rat race, and build financial freedom through saving, investing, and giving back. He also opens up about his personal journey through health scare, the lessons learned, and the exciting adventures that await him, his wife, and their two children.
This conversation isn’t just about money — it’s about fulfilment, mindset, and creating a life of real value.

In this powerful episode of Effortless Attraction, I sit down with Patricia Breslin — a transformational and wellness coach, TEDx speaker, and author of an upcoming memoir that lays bare her extraordinary story of resilience and healing.
A single mother of six, Patricia has lived through childhood trauma, bulimia, alcohol addiction, and domestic violence. After more than 40 years as a hairdresser, she transformed her own life by training as a counsellor, NLP practitioner, and hypnotherapist — work that inspired the creation of her Who Am I program. Today, she helps others recognise unhelpful patterns, break free from toxic cycles, and reconnect with their true selves.
We talk about courage, recovery, and the power of choice — and Patricia’s story is a testament to what’s possible when healing becomes non-negotiable.
A special thank you to our sponsor Maria Young Wellbeing.

In today’s episode of the Effortless Attraction Podcast, I am joined by Karl Anthony Curtis, a professional hypnotist with a remarkable wealth of experience. Over the years, Karl has carried out thousands of successful sessions that have led to truly life-changing results.
Karl specialises in helping people overcome a wide range of addictions—whether seen as legal or illegal, obvious or hidden. From issues such as overeating, drugs, alcohol, and social media use, through to anxieties around flying or public speaking, Karl’s unique approach to hypnosis creates lasting transformation and genuine change.
In this conversation, we explore Karl’s work, his passion, and how he helps people unlock the power of their minds. We also discuss how hypnosis allows people to regress into the emotional state where issues were first formed, so they can create freedom and change in the lives they are living today.
If you would like to contact Karl, you can reach him directly on WhatsApp at +353 868909541.

In this lively and heartfelt episode, I’m joined by three spirited young Irish women – Erin Rose Kane, Marie Clancy, and Roisin McGinley – who swapped the green fields of Ireland for the golden sands of Abu Dhabi nearly two years ago. Now well into their teaching careers abroad, they share what it’s really like to live and work in the UAE – the fun, the fears, the friendships, and of course, the football.
For anyone contemplating teaching in the Middle East, this is your sign. It’s an honest chat about taking a leap of faith, building confidence, finding your tribe far from home, and embracing the magic that comes when you step out of your comfort zone.

In this powerful episode of Effortless Attraction, I speak with Fiona Hird—a remarkable 62-year-old woman from Scotland whose life story is nothing short of extraordinary. A mother of four, and adoptive mum to a fifth child with severe disabilities, Fiona has lived through abuse, loss, and a devastating car accident that broke her back—but never her spirit.
She’s been the CEO of multiple charities, transformed an old dairy farm into a home for 14, and now, she’s prioritising self-love, healing, and the next vibrant chapter of her life. Her energy, generosity, and wisdom are unforgettable.

I find great joy in discovering the stories and lives that people have crafted. Every achievement begins with a thought, and while success can sometimes lead to stagnation, it also invites reflection on our deeper aspirations. Andrew Carnegie set clear intentions and surpassed his goals, yet there was one thing he sought that money could not purchase: true fulfillment. Can we truly create world peace? Is inner peace achievable? In today’s podcast, I’ll share my reflections on this remarkable man's life. If you'd like to get in touch, feel free to reach out at evelyn@evelynmcaleer.com.
