FINAL EPISODE of SEASON 10
And so I wrap up for now with Aileen Cox Blundell, a dear friend of mine since 2017.
She's the best selling author of multiple Baby Led Weaning books and creator of the hugely successful babyledfeeding.com
But she has taken an even bigger leap of faith and stretched herself beyond any limiting beliefs she carried since the day a teacher said college wasn’t for her - because with her weaning content and books thriving she knew she needed the qualifications to fulfill her mission - to meaningfully support parents and has just completed her Masters to become a registered Nutritionist.
It’s taken 10 years to get to where she is now and at the end of season 10 - I salute her.
And every one who has been brave enough to stretch into the women they are here to be in this world.
Food and nutrition is a pillar of our health. And when we deplete it we dont have the energy to show up in our lives with the energy to become, to grow, to love, to thrive.
Thank you for listening - 10 SEASONS is a huge milestone for me.
Thank you xx

NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks Podcast.
Meet Liz Kavanagh - a woman from Galway sharing her personal journey with Crohn's & now Colon Cancer.
In Ireland, Colon Cancer is the third most common cancer in women.
Approximately 1,100 women are diagnosed with colon or bowel cancer each year and the risk increases as we age.
For Liz her story goes way back to her teenage years when she was diagnosed with Crohn's disease which led to surgery last year.
She woke from surgery with a stoma but also the news that they found a mass.
Here we talk about how grateful she feels about the mass being found, removed and treatment kicking in but how difficult it is to have life so suddenly and so severely interrupted with this news.
She's been sharing her story on instagram and tiktok to keep her sane but also to connect with other women going through illness, treatment and recovery and to remind us all that we can’t assume to take our health for granted.
I recently had my bloods checked by Bloodworks now available at select McCabe’s Pharmacy’s. Book your test HERE
This test includes genetic screening for heart disease and diabetes, as well as cancer antigen testing for breast, prostate, colon, lung, pancreatic, and ovarian cancers.

With 3 young kids at home, Suzy left her job as a producer at RTE to take this huge risk and it’s paying off.

What motivates her chase her dreams and the genuine support other irish female founders pour into each other.

Are you ready to Light your Soul all the way back UP with today’s guest Miriam Hussey, co founder of the Soul Space movement, pharmacist, mother, integrative health advocate and NOW author of her first book Light Up.
Light Up explores the intricate connections between mind, body, and soul, with a profound emphasis on the soul as the focal point of our overall well-being.
Written for those who feel they are struggling with our ‘always on’ culture, this book offers a pause to prioritise our own needs so that we can shine brightly and live purposefully once again.
We talk about motherhood, the distress our bodies feel as we consciously awaken to all the distress in the world right now, and she shares really accessible ways to light up within - because closing ourselves down right now is not an option.
And If you love this conversation join Miriam and husband Gerry Hussey in the Armada Hotel this October for their Light Up retreat, and keep an eye for their annual Christmas event on their socials.

NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks Podcast
This week I’m with one of my favourite, honest, mid life and mid size, fashion and beauty influencers Sinead from the Beaut Truth.
Like me, Sinead is in her early 40’s she has kids and a career and like many many other women I know has recently gone through a bit of a dark night of the soul and new direction - new priorities - new boundaries - new woman.
We talk about everything here from body image to physical health to breast reduction surgery.
And how after losing her dad a few years ago that none of this self judgement means a damn thing. Being well is all that matters.
And another thing that shouldnt mean a thing - are the opinions of others especially those that have written about Sinead in tattle threads, some even commenting on how she looked at school dropoffs - because ya know that’s a measure of her as a woman!

This week I’m with a founder of one of my favourite skincare brands Niamh Ryan of Ella and Jo.
Beyond the whole co founder success story - she is also a mother of 4 and the past decade has been a serious personal and professional stretch.
And here at 41 she says for the first time she can feel herself drop into her body and live truly as herself.
We talk about her spirituality, how she channels confidence, energy and discipline when it comes to giving her soul and body what it needs.
She runs, she plunges, she meditates, she holds beautiful retreats for us all to drop our shoulders and take a breath.
And this conversation will inspire you to grab on to life, to be ruthless about conserving and nurturing your own energy and never wasting a drop of it on self doubt.

Hello you’re listening to Stretch Marks with me your host Sinéad O'Moore.
This week I’m joined by a friend, a woman who has nourished her grief into an empathy that is helping others through a modality known as Emotional Freedom Technique and now author of her first book Tapping into You - Sarah Tobin.
I first met Sarah about 7 years ago as she joined me to share her story of losing her newborn Alice and explored what all this “tapping” stuff was.
As you listen to the episode here, you’ll see how I began as a bit of a cynic but as for us all in some shape or form, life brought me to my knees one day and without realising it - I was there tapping on the points that Sarah has once taught me and feeling a wash of calm - just enough to get through.
This conversation is vibrant and loving and hopeful and full of light - but it does also reflect on our own personal experiences of grief and baby loss so just mind yourself if that is not what you need right now but I promise you it will introduce you to something that can look after your emotional health.

Hazel Burton founder of The Home Reset joins me to inspire you to reset your life.
I am obsessed with watching Hazel’s tips and transformations and fully believe that her business is not just about resetting someone’s home but it can reset their life - its a modern day therapy when life feels too much and you don't know where to start.
We talk about the courage Hazel needed to resign from her high paying, safe, secure, corporate job, how in her 40’s she now has the career balance and confidence she dreamed and what she’s learned from being welcomed into her clients.

Celebrating SEASON 10!
Hello - I’m Sinead O’Moore and I’ve got good news for fans of the pod.
The 40’s Stretch is coming back on Wednesday June 11th thanks to my partner McCabe’s Pharmacy.
In case you’re new - let’s catch you up
Stretch Marks is a podcast that goes deep into the parts of life that are stretching us.
And creates a safe community for us to heal, not hide the marks left behind.
It very much started in Motherhood - but its grown to include relationships, career, health, the world losing its mind and how to function when it all feels too much.
And now at SEASON 10 the focus is on the 40’s Stretch.
This is a profoundly influential decade of our lives and for the trajectory of our wellbeing and I am back talking to more women about what they are going through physically, mentally, hormonally, professionally...
Basically I want all their tips - and then share them with you.
So I’m here for the next 10 weeks supported by McCabe’s Pharmacy with deep conversations with inspirational women, experts and friends about how to embrace, conquer and thrive throughout our 40’s stretch.
Ok, together let’s figure out The 40’s Stretch.
Talk to you Wednesday.

NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks Podcast
We are stretching - this time into our 40's.
This season wraps up with a huge conversation with Maria Byrne also known as No Spring Chicken
Maria is a mother of 2 about to leave her 40's behind - a decade where so much has changed for her professionally, personally and hormonally.
From the grief of losing her mum to deep anxiety, redundancy and figuring out a childhood where the dad she saw once a week had another family, his “real family” and she was the other child… and the scandal and insecurity that all brought.
And how somewhere in her 40’s all these threads and stories that made her who she was all came to a head - or more like a wrecking ball.
But she is here, in a good space with her health back on track.
Which is what its all about. Life leaves it’s mark on us and eventually instead of hiding them we have to heal them.

NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks Podcast
We are stretching - this time into our 40's.
Today I'm joined by the first Irish woman to be included in the Forbes 50 over 50 global list of trailblazing women - Loretta Dignam founder and CEO of the Menopause Hub, Ireland's first dedicated menopause clinic.
After three years of hot flushes, broken sleep, migraines, headaches, dizziness, weight gain, UTIs and dry eyes, energy levels on the floor, Loretta felt like her old self had disappeared. And instead of just making a change - she made a revolution.
Here we talk about what led to her courageous move out of her career and into the Menopause Hub, why we need specialist menopause clinics and the value of women being so much more informed and empowered in their 20’s, 30’s, 40’s and 50’s to not only protect their hormones but their future health.
SURVEY:
The Menopause Hub invites you to take part in their annual Perimenopause and Menopause survey.
It is the 7th year of the survey, and the results help to inform stakeholders, including Government, Dept of Health, Medical Professionals, Employers and Media as well as Policy Makers and Society generally. Click here to take part.

This week I'm joined by breath work facilitator Laura Carr.
With over 16 years in this space, Laura integrates grounded coaching, somatic techniques, and spiritual insight to release blocks, restore balance, and guide you toward alignment with your true self. She is also calm, compassionate but good craic too…
We talk about what led her to moving from the corporate hustle to these therapies.
What breathwork can do for our nervous system regulation as we move through each stretch of life and she takes us through a breath work exercise which we can all do anytime we feel we need to take a breath.
This stuff isn’t new age - it’s ancient.
It’s not being invented. It’s being remembered.
This conversation, this whole series in fact shows us how to take steps towards better health which is why it makes sense to partner with McCabe’s Pharmacy.

Join me for this conversion with child and adolescent psychotherapist and play therapist Debbie Cullinane who at 42 is in her “no more holding back” era!
We talk about aging, the lessons she has taken from her grandmother who is still a force at 92 and Debbie’s evolving relationship with her body.
She is very open about her history of anorexia and bulimia and why now strong is better than small.
We also get very honest about our changing relationships with alcohol - and recognising that the mummy wine culture is not serving.
As a health professional focused on children’s mental health, Debbie reminds us here that we can so easily allow our own health to decline as life stretches us to thin.

Hello this is Stretch Marks Podcast. I’m Sinead O’Moore
Lorna makes us laugh on the internet, but its not all fun and games.
She has had a huge 5 years and since 40 is beginning to take care of herself - unapologetically.
We talk about the impact of her son's Autism diagnosis and after 40 years of masking it all made sense as she received her own diagnosis of ADHD.
TW: She also opens up about pregnancy loss - so just take note of how you’re doing as we do talk about miscarriage here.
Lorna started taking a GLP1 drug 6 weeks ago to take back control of her weight and her future health, which we dive into.
Now while all of this sounds heavy - it’s lorna so she moves through this conversation with the wit and fun that has made her so popular online.

Tracy Clifford a leading 2fm broadcaster joins me to talk about figuring out life, finding her career confidence in her 40's - while also figuring out Silent Endometriosis and a complicated fertility journey.
Painful periods are one of the first things as woman we are taught to “just get on with”.
Unavoidable and unrelenting.
And so begins a relationship with denying what our body might be trying to tell us in the hope that we can mask our discomfort and limit our shame.
Here Tracy gets really open about her symptoms, her diagnosis, her anger that other women don’t know what to look out for yet and a culture of masking not fixing our female health.
