#130: Defining Your Own Success & Happiness with Conor James Doyle (Part 1).
•
In this week’s episode Eoin chats with Conor James Doyle (@conorjmd).
Conor was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 18, just before starting his incredible road to success within the hairdressing and beauty industry.
Conor is a Consultant, Educator and Content creator within the hair industry. In 2019 Conor James Education ( linktr.ee/conorjmd ) was born, and has facilitated the up-skilling and education of thousands of industry professionals since.
As Conor says himself, he always “had a constant need to understand the finer details within his craft”, and that’s something that he applies to his education today. He set a goal to create education that is more than just 'copy and paste' techniques, but to offer a deeper understanding into the decisions made as colourists.
Conor has won L'Oréal young colourist, Ladies Colour Trophy, International young colourist, he was nominated as best ‘Beauty Influencer’ as he shares incredible insight, experience and advice to his now 85K+ Instagram followers & 70K+ Tiktok followers (@conorjmd).
Conor’s work has been featured internationally across magazines and platforms including Modern Salon, Ahead Hair Media, Creative Head, Behind The Chair, Hairpainters, Hairbrained official and many many more. He has also educated for platforms including L'Oreal, Redken and HairdressingLive.
There are few things Conor hasn’t done within his industry, and it’s no surprise he’s at the top of his field ( linktr.ee/conorjmd ).

38:04|Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Jye Warren (@the_average_athlete_), who was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at 25 years old and has spent the last 11 years navigating the highs, lows, and relentless mental demands that come with living with this condition every single day.One of the biggest turning points in Jye’s journey came when his eyesight became impacted because of his diabetes. What started as a frightening wake up call quickly became a moment that forced him to confront the emotional weight, fear, uncertainty, and reality of living with a chronic condition that never truly switches off.In this conversation, we dive deep into how that experience affected him mentally and emotionally, the resilience it took to keep moving forward, and how it ultimately changed the way he approaches his health, mindset, and life.We also discuss the hidden mental load of Type 1 diabetes, burnout, identity, community, and why so many people living with diabetes feel pressure to appear like they are coping even when they are struggling internally.As always, be sure to rate, comment, subscribe and share.
