Scared Shitless with Claire Walsh

Damian Browne is an adventurer dedicated to exploring both internally and externally. In part 1, Damian sets the scene of being stuck in the middle of the Atlantic, waiting for a tropical storm to hit. In this episode, he talks about fear and feeling powerless, about fear and focus and about fear versus meaning. It's a compelling listen. I got so much from listening to Damian speak, I hope you do too.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Damian is an adventurer dedicated to exploring both internally and externally. Ultra marathons in the Sahara, summiting 5 of the 7 Summits and rowing across the Atlantic....twice, his adventures and feats might are extreme. However at the core of his approach is something that we can all apply to our lives; Adventure is not achieved without stretching yourself. Beyond discomfort and fear is meaning, fulfillment and feeling alive. In this episode Damian talks about fear and freezing water, about fear and finding a way through and how not to let fear fuck things up. I had so much to talk about with Damian, we've divided it over two episodes. Buckle up for part one - it’s one hell of an adventure. To get in touch, email [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Helena Tubridy is a fertility and IVF coach and she joined me to help me talk about my fears around not becoming a mother. In this episode we talk about fear of not being enough, fear and the financial toll, fear of hoping and when the decision is made to talk away, fear of not finding fulfillment. This episode is a very personal one but one that I think is important. So many of these fears exist in the shadows. For the thousands of women, like me, I want to shine a light on the experience of being childless not by choice. A massive thank you to Helena who was so generous with her understanding and expertise.

Scared Shitless is back! To kick things off I thought it was time to share the Why behind the podcast.In this episode I talk about Fear and Overwhelm. I describe times in my life fear has brought me to a standstill. No matter what my bio states, 90% of the time I'm scared shitless...for one reason or another. What has changed in the last few years is how I interpret fear. Once I let it bring me to stop, now I interpret it as putting myself out into the world in a new way.  Among the fear, I try to find excitement and hope and every so slowly, inch my way forward. If you enjoyed this episode please follow, leave a rating or comment or share on social media.

Daisy Kelliher is originally from Dublin and, in my humble opinion, the best 'Chief Stew' of the wholeBelow Deck franchise. She has a strong work ethic, solid sense of craic and the most stunning swimsuit collection I've ever seen! In this episode Daisy talks about Fear and Uncertainty. Describing a situation that many will empathise with, Daisy talks about being singleat 37, wondering where she might meet her partner and whether children will be in her future. In a scenario I'm all too familiar with, it's hard to know where to start when uncertainty underpins all the areas of your life. Daisy is a breath of fresh air and chats with such awareness and honesty. It's a conversation I could have done with hearing when I was 37. I know you'll enjoy this season finale of S1 Scared ShitlessThis episode is sponsored by The Harbour Bar, Bray, one of Ireland’s best loved pubs.
