    Fear, Finding Your Brand & Growing Your Business with Brenda Cormican

    What do you really want from your business? And are you building a brand that reflects who you are? In this episode, I’m chatting with Brenda Cormican, a business coach I’ve worked with myself, about entrepreneurship, personal branding, fear, confidence and getting clear on what you want. Brenda shares her journey from hospitality into business coaching and explains why your brand is about much more than logos, colours and fonts. It starts with your identity, your values, who you want to serve and how you want people to remember you. We get into the fear of failure, the fear of success, why confidence comes from taking action, and how small steps help build self-trust. We also talk about accountability, community, networking, finding your ideal client, refining your offers and surrounding yourself with people who help you grow. Brenda explains how her three-month Elevate coaching programme takes business owners through identity, positioning, offers and visibility — and tells us about her free Navigate Your Niche guide and personal brand audit checklist. If you’re a solo business owner, thinking of starting a business, or feeling stuck and unsure of your next move, this conversation is well worth a listen.

    How to Become More Self-Sufficient & Grow Your Own Food

    How do you become more self-sufficient and start growing your own food? That's what I'm getting into on this week's solo episode. I'm talking through five simple vegetables that you can grow at home — rocket, perpetual spinach, onions, mizuna and kale. Then we're getting into herbs like basil, rosemary and thyme, what's in season now, growing tomatoes and apples, fruit trees, containers, balconies and how you can start producing more of your own food even if you don't have a huge garden. I'm also talking about no-dig growing and how you can use cardboard, manure or seaweed and let the worms do the work for you. Bish bash bosh! If you want chemical-free and organic foods right outside your back door, there are simple ways to get started. I'll also touch on garlic, allicin, soil, mycelium, planting fruit trees and why growing your own food is about much more than just putting something in the ground. It's about getting more fruits, vegetables and greens onto your plate and becoming a little bit more self-sufficient along the way. And if you're interested in coming along to one of my Grow Your Own courses, send me a DM with the word GROW and I'll send you the next available one. Stay tuned, stay classy and keep it organic.

    From the Gards to Yoga, Wellness & Dara Mats with Laura Martin

    This week I’m joined by Laura Martin, founder of Dara Mats — an Irish business creating eco-friendly yoga mats inspired by nature, Irish landscapes, heritage and culture. Laura spent most of her adult life as a Garda before discovering yoga during a career break. That experience helped her realise that there was another path for her. We chat about her journey from frontline emergency response to yoga, holistic therapy, retreats and building Dara Mats. Laura also tells me why it took four years to develop the mats, why she chose natural tree rubber, why making them machine washable was so important, and how the designs are inspired by Ireland. We get into Irish heritage, oak trees, nature, yoga, self-care, retreats, protecting your peace and energy, and the importance of finding those little moments throughout a busy day. Laura shares a brilliant approach to wellbeing — instead of trying to find fifteen minutes, find fifteen one-minute moments. Take three breaths. Slow down. Close the laptop and mentally close the workday. Be more mindful when you eat. And remember to be kind to yourself. A brilliant conversation with a woman who has taken a very different path while keeping the same intention — being in service and helping people. Stay tuned, stay classy, keep it organic and get on that good stuff.

    Strawberries to Cream Recap | 600KM, Organic Farms, Real Food & Good Craic

    This week I’m giving you a full recap of the wonderful, magical Strawberries to Cream event. Over eighteen cyclists. Around 600 kilometres. Organic and regenerative farms. Real Irish food. Beautiful countryside. And plenty of good crack along the way. We started in Waterford and headed west, visiting some incredible farms and food producers along the way before finishing up around Limerick and celebrating at Urban Co-op. We visited West Waterford Wagyu, Ballymaloe Cookery School, Macroom Buffalo, Muckross House, Kate’s farm in Kerry and Master Chefs, tasting amazing food and learning from the people actually producing it. For me, this event is about much more than cycling. It’s about connecting people with farmers, seeing where their food comes from, tasting real food and learning how these farms operate. It’s farm to fork. It’s education. It’s entertainment. And it’s getting people out into the countryside and surrounding themselves with people who are looking for better health through real foods. We had some incredible food throughout the week — organic free-range eggs, raw milk, buffalo cheese, buffalo beef burgers, sourdough, salads, pork, chicken and even strawberry ice cream with raw milk. It was an unbelievable week and I’m super grateful to everyone who got involved. Would I do it all again? Definitely. But after 600 kilometres, I might give the bike saddle a little break first! Enjoy the recap. Stay tuned. Stay classy. Keep it organic. Get on that good stuff.

    The Truth About Fasting, Water Fasting & Autophagy with Loren Lockman

    This week on the Colman Power Organic Fitness Podcast, I’m joined by Loren Lockman all the way from the USA for a fascinating conversation about fasting, water fasting, autophagy, nutrition and the body's ability to heal. Loren has spent decades working with fasting and has worked with more than 16,000 clients from 156 countries. We get into what actually happens when you stop eating, what autophagy is, why Loren believes it really starts to become significant beyond the 16–18 hour mark, how the body moves from glucose to glycogen and then towards fat and ketones, and why he believes longer fasting can create some remarkable results. We also talk about breaking a fast, whole foods versus juices, protein, fruit, coconut water, our evolutionary history and why Loren believes humans are tropical animals regardless of where we live. It’s a fascinating and definitely thought-provoking conversation, with some views that I know will challenge the conventional way of thinking about health and nutrition. Loren also shares some incredible stories from his clients and explains why he believes fasting is incredibly powerful — but also why it has to be done properly. A unique one this week. Enjoy!

    Conscious Parenting | Why Our Childhood Impacts How We Parent with Gillian Schaill

    This week I’m joined by my very good friend Gillian Skahill, a conscious parenting coach based in Galway. We have a fascinating conversation about what happens when our children trigger us, how our own childhood can influence the way we parent, emotional regulation, connection and understanding children's behaviour. Gillian explains why behaviour is communication, why children need to feel safe, soothed and seen, and why repair is such an important part of parenting when things don't go right. We also chat about technology, getting children outside, family life, managing multiple children, our inner child and why there is no such thing as perfect parenting. The big takeaway? Have compassion for yourself. We're all learning. We're all going to get things wrong. But we can pause, reconnect, repair and keep moving forward. A brilliant conversation with Gillian. Stay classy.Keep it organic.Get on that good stuff.
