S4 E7 - Building a Business with Purpose and The Meaning of Success with Oonagh O’Hagan, Owner & Managing Director of Meaghear’s Pharmacy Group

Season 4, Ep. 7

I am in awe of this lady!! She is a wealth of information! We all know her as the owner of Meagher’s Pharmacy Group and social media educator but Oonagh O’Hagan’s story is one of wisdom, self-awareness and absolute JOY that drives her success in business and life. Her journey from Northern Ireland to becoming a prominent businesswoman is a testament to the power of joy and gratitude in creating opportunities.


In this episode, Oonagh shares upbringing in Northern Ireland, her love of education and the turning point in her business. Oonagh also chats to me about:

  • The pressure to set an example as an oldest daughter and granddaughter 
  • How following her gut led her to a successful career in pharmacy
  • Her self care routine and maintaining personal wellbeing while giving so much to others
  • The journey of building her business around her passions  
  • The meaning of success and how she achieves it
