Diren Kartal, what can I say, a man of many of words and lots of laughs and like myself really believes in the power of conversations! Diren is a personal trainer, who over the years has grown a massive online audience through hilarious training/gym videos but also through “Calling out” bullshit within the industry through quick wit and blunt content!Diren is not shy when stating his opinions on the fitness industry, male & female roles within relationships and what he wants in life! This episode is full of good craic, with a side on controversy. We also discuss how Diren flew with his Dad to Turkey after the massive earthquake earlier this year, and raised over 100,000 in 2 days and what he saw and experienced on the ground.

THIS IS A SPECIAL ONE! One that I have thought about for a very long time. Meet my baby sister Darcy who joins me in telling our Mam, Jackie's story, and what a Mam she was. Our Mam was diagnosed with a rare form of non primary, stage 4 cancer in 2018. Anyone who has fought or fought cancer alongside someone will know it is not linear and resources in Ireland in compared to some parts of the world we are lagging and so, we explain about fundraising for my Mams treatment in Germany. This episode brings you from the starting point of our shared journey to the passing of our amazing Mam, explaining the emotional and physical pains she experienced. Grief is not something I ever thought about until I had to and I feel by sharing my experience I can connect with others who too maybe struggling. I would do anything to have my Mam here but I know she is so proud of how we are all surviving and I know someday we will begin to thrive again! But my god, I miss her so much! And, My baby sister has been my rock and I am so proud of her strength and I know you will agree with me by the end of this episode. Thank you all, for the amazing support and feedback over the last two episodes, this season feels like a very special one!

This week's guest is.... ME! I have been debating doing a solo episode sometime now, but my worry was always it sounding narcissistic, a bit of a wanker to be honest but in saying that some people join this community at other different stages and may not know who I am or where I started this podcast so I thought now is a good time to give an honest insight into my life so you know who you are listening to. With that said I couldn't think of anything worse just talking aimlessly into a mic, so I thought why not Dan Campion have, the person who makes this all possible for me, my mentor, my now good friend and owner of the podcast studio Prymal Productions and the Prymal Podcast interview me! We didn't script or practice anything at all and just let Dan host the conversation! We chat about my career, grief, time working with MAC, podcasting and just soooo much more! I hope you guys like it and as said in the episode here in the cancer treatment center we sent my Mam too.

IT FEELS SO GOOD TO BE BACK! What feeds your soul? This is what I am constantly asking myself, since recording this episode with actor Amy De Bhrun who you may know from BBC Series Line of Duty, Vikings, Coronation Street, The Jason Bourne Movie, etc. Amy doesn't just talk to me about her career but about what makes her tick, what feeds her soul, why she does what she does. It was such a grounding and inspiring conversation. And Amy comes with so much experience in her field it was so interesting to hear her speak about her craft in so much detail. We get into the nitty gritty of the existence of Nepotism within both our industries, the resistance to surrender to motherhood and what it is like when you loose your identity.

Hello and welcome back this week! Episode 7 already in Season 2, where is the time going? This week is a difficult, yet important conversation! Nicola sadly lost her brother Keith to suicide back in 2020, having no signs of suicidal ideation, Nicola recounts the days and months leading to Keith's death and what life has been like since his passing! Nicola gives us an insight into what grieving has been like as a sibling and describing it as "you never get over it, you just get on with it"! We discuss if as a society we are going to talk more about Mental Health than people like Keith who did seek support should be able to speak about that support in their day-to-day lives with no stigma attached! So many of us suffer from silent depression and Nicola wants to share her story to inspire them to speak up and out and seek the help they need! She so bravely tells us what sort of person Keith was and how they cherish his memory! I hope if you are listening and your struggling, understand that there is help and so I wanted not just to talk about this but for this episode to serve a better purpose to those people affected and those who want to help those affected so I teamed up with ShareJoy for this episode.

Carly's social media accounts exploded when she told her story of being sadly diagnosed with breast cancer at the young age of 24! Carly continued to tell her story and brought the nation through her treatment with her, giving us all the push to check our chest and understand that this can happen to anyone! Carly talks to me today about how it affected her family, her IVF treatment, and how the social media world only seems on board when she was sick! Do people love misery? But Carly survived and kicked cancer's ass! This episode is not just about cancer but Carly as a person but cancer does not define her it's just something that happened to her! I have never laughed and been so amazed by a single person. Carly's outlook on life is incredible and will inspire you to KEEP GOING!

In this episode I sit down and have chats with the OG of bloggers, queen of cosmetics and mental health speaker Faces by Grace. This is an extra special episode as we delve into the beautiful (and there is beauty) and real ugly truths of what it is to be an influencer in Ireland who is experiencing online trolling alongside having her own personal mental health struggles. The hashtag for Be Kind needs to speak louder in how we treat one another online so I hope this episode opens peoples eyes to the fact of, even if you don't like someone online it never gives you the right to bully and abuse online, we need to #BeKinder. We chat about the great success and the highs of being an influencer as well as what is next for Grace in her career. Please Rate, Review and Share :)

The Beautiful Truth by Robyn is designed to speak about the beautiful and ugly truths that live within the industries many of us work in today and to discuss the hardships we face as a generation and how we can overcome them. At the end of each episode I will ask my guest to reveal one whole hearted honest truth that they have never revealed before about their industry or themselves, it maybe a story that horrifys the nation, a change they want to see happen, an opinion that they have never publically stated, something that gives us the listener some realness. A beautiful truth. @thebeautifultruthpodcast
