    Suzi Green talks with Chez Stock about wellbeing on and off tour. We are excited to hear from Suzi since she also has a huge interest in mental health and wellbeing.

    Hidden Talents Ep3

    September's is international recovery month - and we have a very special show by Ken and Paul who leads by example, lighting the path for others to find hope and share the journey x  Hidden Talents - Ken Binley's guest today is Lighting Designer Paul O'Neill. Paul's joined us to talk about his experience working professionally in the entertainment industry, his recovery from addiction, and how's he has re-trained as a bodywork therapist alongside looking forward to our industry picking up again. This is another beautifully authentic chat, thank you so much Paul for taking the time to share your story so far and for being honest and open sharing your experiences. You are not alone - Let's Talk folks x Listener discretion is advised x Born in Dublin, Paul O’Neill was blessed an idyllic early childhood. In 1984 he was plunged into the booming Dublin arts scene when a major venue offered a clueless twenty year-old student real money to light their next play. Before long he was a venue technician with a blossoming career as a lighting designer.  In a diverse career spanning the worlds of theatre, music, dance, fashion, TV, corporate and civic events….he has also had stints in sound, rigging, tour & production management, as well as consultancy and installation work… and has been the tech manager of two well-known venues in Ireland. Paul’s path was far from smooth however, and at the age of 47, after yet another failed relationship and facing homelessness, he finally sought professional help. This led to finally addressing his relationship with alcohol and other escapes, opening the door to healing long-buried childhood trauma and taking ownership of his mental & emotional wellbeing for the first time.  Also gifted with healing hands, he has trained in a range of bodywork therapies over the past twenty years, and since 2006 has combined freelancing on events with a practice in Amatsu and Body Harmony.  Having lost too many friends and colleagues through suicide or substance misuse he is truly grateful to wake up each day with a clear head, and is committed to helping others to find whatever recovery and connection they can to be their best selves.  Useful links to support groups mentioned by mentioned by Paul  Al-Anon Family Groups – Strength and hope for families & friends of problem drinkers. http://www.al-anon-ireland.org Helpline +353(01) 8732699 Co-Dependents Anonymous Ireland http://codaireland.com To all listening - You are not alone.

    Chez Stock

    Chez Stock talks with Suzi Green about Chez’s vast touring experience and how she found the healthiest working environments always celebrate diversity, ability and skill. Chez Stock is an LA based FOH engineer & tour manager. Her 20 year career in audio has taken her to stadiums around the world and tiny clubs you've probably never heard of (for good reason). The pandemic hit & the touring industry evaporated overnight in March 2020. She now has lots of time on her hands & has started volunteering for a local street cat TNR rescue & is currently fostering multiple kittens. You are not alone - Let's talk.

    Hidden Talents Ep2

    Ken Binley's guest today is Lighting Designer Andrew Leonard. He joins us to talk about his 45 years experience in the entertainment industry, living in the moment and the need for collaboration in these pandemic times. Bio: Born in Dublin in 1953, Andrew Leonard grew up in the leafy suburbs in Killiney Co. Dublin. Educated first by nun’s with men’s names in black habits, Andrew then went to St. Conleth’s in Ballsbridge, followed by Ampleforth, a Public School in Yorkshire run by Benedictine monks in skirts / habits! He went to Trinity in Dublin to study Business Studies, but got diverted into theatre by an old school friend and he discovered his vocation for lighting and theatre there and spent most of his time in the Players’ Theatre. Just before he left Trinity, he saw an ad for Lighting operators in RTE, went for it and got the job, which he stuck at for 3 very valuable years. He left to start Stage and Location Lighting with Rupert Murray in 1978, which then became Lighting Dimensions. It was the start of an era, the beginning of the indigenous business which has grown to dizzy heights today. Andrew left the company in ’94 to become a freelance Lighting Director and contractor. Andrew joins us to talk a little bit about keys moments, turns in the road, the coping with the stresses and strains of running a business, of relationships, and how he addressed those moments with the help of personal development work, therapy and mindfulness. Here's a link to Oscailt a fantastic service referenced in the show: https://oscailt.com/practitioners/ Let's talI
