What if your money blocks, your fear of being seen, your compulsion to toil endlessly just to earn your keep — aren't personal failings, but inherited ones? In this conversation, Eden sits down with Irish coach, writer, and meditation teacher Conor Creighton to explore the deep ancestral and colonial roots of shame, scarcity, and disconnection — and what becomes possible when we restore relationship with a much older, earthier timeline. Conor speaks from the lens of Irishness — but whether or not you have Irish roots, these themes will land. We've all been shaped by colonial conditioning. We all originally come from earth-based cultures. And restoring relationship here turns out to be some of the most practical, liberating work we can do. In this episode: The money stories we inherit — and how they live in the body long after we "know better" The labor legacy: why "put your head down and work" runs so deep, and what it costs us What the Irish language reveals about a fundamentally different relationship with work, craft, and vocation How colonial and religious trauma conditioned us to feel shame at birth — and how that shows up in our relationship with money, ease, and being seen The ancestral roots of trust: what our pre-colonial ancestors knew about reciprocity with the earth — and how reconnecting here restores something that no amount of "inner work" alone can reach Why emotional blocks aren't problems to fix, but catalysts for evolution Three-quarter pace: what it actually feels like to slow down — and what opens up when you do Failure as liberation, content as weather, and the radical act of letting things unfold organically Practical ways to embody safety and restore trust in yourself, your resources, and the natural world About Conor Creighton Conor Creighton is an Irish coach, writer, and meditation teacher.
