Stretch Marks

NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks PodcastHello 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. Preorder Sarah's Book HERESupported by McCabe's Pharmacy.

NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks PodcastWe 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.Supported by McCabe's Pharmacy: Download the new and improved McCabes Pharmacy app today, it's a simple, secure, and time-saving way to manage medications.

NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks PodcastWe 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.

NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks PodcastWe are stretching - this time into our 40's. 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. Supported by McCabe's Pharmacy: Download the new and improved McCabes Pharmacy app today, it's a simple, secure, and time-saving way to manage medications.

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.
