In this week’s episode of Finding Your Pink, I’m joined by the incredible Miriam Hussey — integrative lifestyle pharmacist, co-founder of Soul Space, bestselling author, and a woman who truly embodies light. Miriam shares what it really means to “find your light” — and why so many of us have unknowingly dimmed it. From childhood conditioning and subconscious programming, to burnout, motherhood depletion, and modern-day busyness, we explore how our light becomes blocked… and how to gently reconnect with it.We talk about the concept of a “soul script,” the importance of pressing pause, and the courage it takes to align with those quiet inner whispers. Miriam also shares her own experience of reaching a depleted, broken place in motherhood — and how learning to move from head to heart became the turning point.This is a conversation about choosing your hard, regulating your nervous system, and remembering that even when life feels heavy, your light is never gone — it’s just waiting to be reignited.✨ Be brave. Be beautiful. Be you.Miriam and Gerry are running an event in Dublin on Sunday April 12th called Soul Sunday -Tickets available here https://ti.to/soul-space-the-experience/soul-sunday-talbot-hotel?source=instagram_bio&utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMjU2MjgxMDQwNTU4AAGnRJIPwOeqCY51_KPhgUaQSkdZenG6fDV9PnraEca5yi74Xhd2GMNr0UrigME_aem_10WUZWUCSOvuhYTnc_MvOg📚 Miriam’s book: Light Up - https://www.amazon.ie/Light-Up-Energise-supercharge-SHORTLISTED/dp/0717197190/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2QMM73P1NIPU4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.lSxCDNnSZIzXQd2getAhNw.4bhZLsPZufykzwBG12pDm9Iurk1TtZ7D8r17DDR3uYI&dib_tag=se&keywords=light+up+miriam+hussey&qid=1772022185&sprefix=miriam++light+up%2Caps%2C57&sr=8-1

In this brand new episode we’re talking about a topic that can still feel uncomfortable — even in 2026 — sex.So many of us grow up without the language, confidence, or education to talk about our bodies, pleasure, or intimacy without shame. And yet, these conversations matter — because understanding our sexuality is part of understanding ourselves and finding our pink.My guest today knows this deeply. Grace Alice O’Shea is a sex educator and author. Her work supports women to unlearn shame, reconnect with their bodies, and approach sex with curiosity, compassion, and confidence.In this open, honest, and deeply validating conversation, Grace and I talk about sex — without pressure, performance, or judgement.Grace explains why low libido is the number one reason people come to see her — and why, most of the time, it makes complete sense. We explore how desire is shaped by exhaustion, emotional labour, relationships, and the ways sex is often framed around pleasing others rather than comfort, consent, or pleasure.We also talk about vaginismus — a common but rarely discussed condition — and why so many women feel disconnected from sex, unsure of what they like, or quietly carrying shame about their bodies.In this episode, we explore:Why there is no “normal” or golden number for sexWhy pleasure matters more than orgasmsFaking orgasms and the pressure to performHow small moments of connection build intimacyLosing yourself in an emotionally abusive relationshipWhat it means to lose — and find — your pinkLeaving a PhD after panic attacksAnd Grace’s late autism diagnosis after a lifetime of being told she was “just anxious”🎧 A powerful listen for anyone navigating intimacy, identity, and self-trust.

This week on Finding Your Pink in this deeply honest and moving conversation, I’m joined by Dr Clodagh Campbell — psychologist, author, and mum — to explore the layers of identity, motherhood, love, loss, and healing.Adopted as a newborn, Clodagh grew up in a loving and secure home, yet carried a deep sense of anxiety and fear of abandonment from a very young age. As an adult — and now as a psychologist who has done extensive personal therapy — she reflects on how early separation from her birth mother shaped her nervous system, her relationships, and her sense of safety in the world.Clodagh also opens up about motherhood, including suffering from hyperemesis during all three pregnancies — an experience that left her physically depleted and emotionally stretched. She speaks candidly about the exhaustion of early motherhood, the reality of going from one child to three, and how losing her pink happened when she was at the height of her career success.🎧 A must-listen for anyone navigating motherhood, adoption, anxiety, or the quiet work of becoming whole.You can get a copy of Clodagh's book The Steps here - https://www.amazon.ie/Steps-lessons-therapy-healing-creating/dp/1804580864/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2ZN45LYYSPW12&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.-1z_tsQpPCfW1JYTNCGMcQ.PMjH5TaD8r7-Wb42smDRrL8_nZhbqyNkIbVuFHGKsfA&dib_tag=se&keywords=the+steps+by+clodagh+campbell&qid=1772215823&sprefix=the+steps+clo%2Caps%2C77&sr=8-1

In this powerful new episode of Finding Your Pink, I sit down with a former colleague of mine, broadcaster and DJ Nikki Hayes for an honest conversation about addiction, identity, motherhood, and starting again.Behind the public persona was a woman quietly struggling — with anxiety, low self-worth, addiction, the breakdown of her marriage, and ultimately losing custody of her daughter. Nikki shares what it’s really like to rebuild a life after rock bottom, one sober day at a time.But this is not a story about alcohol. It’s a story about losing yourself — and finding your way back.About rebuilding trust slowly. About learning to live with regret without being defined by it.And about discovering that real acceptance comes from within.Now over two years sober, Nikki speaks with courage and honesty about the hardest parts of recovery, the long road to forgiveness, and why becoming a mother her daughter can be proud of is her definition of pink.

In this episode I'm joined by comedian, businesswoman, wife, mother — and the creative force behind some of TikTok’s most loved characters — Julie Burke.From growing up in a house full of girls in the 80s, trying to stand out while staying true to herself, Julie shares her journey through motherhood, business, and the moment she decided it was time to pour back into herself. As her children got older, the space for creativity grew — and with a little encouragement from a friend, Julie took a leap into comedy on social media.While Instagram’s polished, picture-perfect culture never quite fit, Julie found her people on TikTok — with her very first video going viral. From there, she made a conscious decision to create comedy that was kind, clean, and something she could truly stand behind.Julie opens up about:Creating comedy without cruelty or cursingWhy validation is nice — but never necessaryManaging trolls with humour, perspective, and confidenceHer three pillars for content: educate, entertain, upliftWhy creativity can be an act of self-careAnd how staying true to yourself is the real successWith honesty, humour, and a brilliant cheese analogy you won’t forget, Julie reminds us that not everyone has to like you — and that’s not only okay, it’s wonderful.This episode is a refreshing, empowering conversation about confidence, creativity, boundaries, and being proud of who you see when you look in the mirror.✨ Funny, thoughtful, and deeply relatable — this one will leave you smiling and inspired.
