My guest this week is the best-selling author & psychologist Katriona O’Sullivan. Not only does Katriona have a life-story that is nothing short of exceptionally powerful, she is the author of the phenomenal book Poor, which spent over 40 weeks at No.1 on the Irish non-fiction charts, won Biography of the Year and the Listeners' Choice Award at the Irish Book Awards, and is now being adapted for the stage at the Gate Theatre during the Dublin Theatre Festival from Sep 26.
Katriona speaks openly about her childhood journey, which was marked by extreme poverty, neglect, and abuse, to becoming a respected academic and advocate for educational equity. In this fascinating conversation we look at healing from trauma (with a big and little ‘t’) , how mindfulness can be harmful if not approached correctly, and Katriona shares her own healing journey through therapy and much more. This is a powerful conversation about compassion, purpose, and how just surviving isn’t enough - we need to build a world where more people don’t have to.
If you're new to the series, why not take the time to go back and catch up on the wonderful interviews that you may have missed!
