In this powerful and heart-centred conversation, I sit down with West Belfast's own Ciarán May, founder of Natural Resilience, community builder, and advocate for emotional intelligence and self-leadership.

We explore what it really means to lead in today's world, from cultivating inner resilience to creating authentic communities where people thrive. Ciarán shares deeply personal stories from his roots in West Belfast, his journey through sports and powerlifting, and how cold water swimming became a portal to presence, healing, and purpose.

Together, we unpack themes of men's mental health, the loneliness of leadership, the knowing–doing gap, and how to build connection in a disconnected age. Whether you're a coach, business leader, parent, or just someone looking to live with more purpose, this episode is for you.

Ciaran May is the founder of Natural Resilience, a Belfast based company that aims to help others connect, collaborate and grow.

Ciaran is a former international powerlifter who has swapped weights for wellbeing, his journey has led him to work with some of the biggest companies in the UK and Ireland.
