🦩The Reality Of Being Black And Irish

In this deeply powerful episode of Finding Your Pink, I sit down with Emer O’Neill—author, educator, broadcaster, and activist—to explore the lived reality of being Black and Irish. From her early days as a teacher to becoming a familiar face on RTÉ, Emer shares how one honest video about her experiences changed the course of her life—and led her into activism. But with that visibility came a heavy cost. Emer speaks openly about the weight of using your voice to challenge bias, the backlash she has faced, and the emotional toll of standing up for what is right. She shares heartbreaking moments from her childhood, the reality of navigating the world on guard, and the everyday experiences—from hair touching to being asked “where are you really from?”—that highlight the deeper issues of race and belonging. This conversation is not about blame—it’s about awareness. About learning to sit with discomfort, to question what we think we know, and to grow. At its core, this episode is about humanity. About seeing each other. And about finding compassion in the conversations that matter most.

🦩From a Small Village to Vivienne Westwood and Vogue

On this episode of Finding Your Pink, I’m joined by an Irish woman who followed her dream all the way to the top of the fashion world. Kristine Kilty is a fashion stylist, creative director and entrepreneur who has spent more than two decades working at the highest level of the industry — styling celebrities, collaborating with global brands and working alongside iconic names like Vivienne Westwood, Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Chanel and Dior. But Kristine’s story isn’t just about fashion and success. In this conversation, she shares the reality behind the glamour of the fashion industry — the long hours, the relentless pace and the surprising moments of solitude that come with a career in the spotlight. Kristine also opens up about a life-changing brain injury that forced her to slow down, reassess her life and rediscover what truly mattered. What followed was not just recovery, but reinvention. Together we talk about ambition, resilience, alignment, and the courage it takes to evolve — even when others don’t understand your path. And of course, we talk about what it really means to find your pink.

🦩Finding Your Light

In this week’s episode of Finding Your Pink, I’m joined by the incredible Miriam Hussey — integrative lifestyle pharmacist, co-founder of Soul Space, bestselling author, and a woman who truly embodies light. Miriam shares what it really means to “find your light” — and why so many of us have unknowingly dimmed it. From childhood conditioning and subconscious programming, to burnout, motherhood depletion, and modern-day busyness, we explore how our light becomes blocked… and how to gently reconnect with it. We talk about the concept of a “soul script,” the importance of pressing pause, and the courage it takes to align with those quiet inner whispers. Miriam also shares her own experience of reaching a depleted, broken place in motherhood — and how learning to move from head to heart became the turning point. This is a conversation about choosing your hard, regulating your nervous system, and remembering that even when life feels heavy, your light is never gone — it’s just waiting to be reignited. ✨ Be brave. Be beautiful. Be you. Miriam and Gerry are running an event in Dublin on Sunday April 12th called Soul Sunday -Tickets available here https://ti.to/soul-space-the-experience/soul-sunday-talbot-hotel?source=instagram_bio&utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMjU2MjgxMDQwNTU4AAGnRJIPwOeqCY51_KPhgUaQSkdZenG6fDV9PnraEca5yi74Xhd2GMNr0UrigME_aem_10WUZWUCSOvuhYTnc_MvOg 📚 Miriam’s book: Light Up - https://www.amazon.ie/Light-Up-Energise-supercharge-SHORTLISTED/dp/0717197190/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2QMM73P1NIPU4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.lSxCDNnSZIzXQd2getAhNw.4bhZLsPZufykzwBG12pDm9Iurk1TtZ7D8r17DDR3uYI&dib_tag=se&keywords=light+up+miriam+hussey&qid=1772022185&sprefix=miriam++light+up%2Caps%2C57&sr=8-1 ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
