217 Being Bold and Highly Sensitive

Business Miracles

Midyear energy brings a natural pause point—a chance to reflect and ask: how can I use this midyear energy to be bold? It’s an opportunity to explore what being bold really means for highly sensitives in business and leadership. Spoiler: it doesn't have to be big or drastic. In fact, for HSPs boldness is less about force and more about alignment—it's the intentional practice of stepping outside your comfort zone in service of your essential self. Being highly sensitive and bold is the ultimate intentional use of the tension. Bold doesn't cancel out sensitive—instead, they amplify each other. In our final Business Miracles podcast episode, I walk you through what it means to be both highly sensitive and bold, and why that's not a contradiction—it's an advantage. We talk about competence and risk as a practice, how to recognize when you're denying your essential self (and how to pivot), and why boldness is less about hustle and more about alignment. You'll get a clear five-step process to help you take bold action, rooted in your HSE strengths like intuition, creativity, and deep spiritual connection. This is your invitation to let go of the “other 80%er” (non-HSP) way of doing things and instead lead in a way that's true to who you are. Along those lines, we will be moving this podcast over to our YouTube channel, where fresh training content, just like you receive here, will be shared twice per week.

Smart D8, Dublin's first smart district dedicated to addressing community health and wellbeing in the heart of Dublin 8, has announced three new pilot projects as it enters its fifth year of successfully engaging the local community. The pilot projects will centre on accelerating cancer detection with the use of AI, driving positive conversations around men's health through community football and supporting remote heart health monitoring for patients living with heart failure conditions. The announced initiatives come as Smart D8 continues its commitment to enhance the health and wellbeing of local communities in the Dublin 8 area following five years of success. Smart D8 pilot projects supporting men's health and managing heart failure through patient empowerment Since October 2020, the Smart D8 partnership has gathered expertise across a range of areas and has established strong community connections among residents, businesses and local organisations. Through the combined effort of pilot calls, local workshop activities and engagement with existing community groups, Smart D8 has reached over 18,500 people living and working in the 45,000-strong population of Dublin 8. Smart D8 is led by The Digital Hub, Dublin City Council, St James's Hospital and Smart Dublin. They are joined by Tyndall National Institute, St Patrick's Mental Health Services, Trinity College Dublin, Trinity Translational Medicine Institute, National College of Art & Design, Guinness Enterprise Centre, Health Innovation Hub Ireland and the HSE in this unique collaborative initiative. The pilot programme of Smart D8 operates by selecting a number of health and wellbeing-focused initiatives each year following a competitive application process. Selected projects are supported with community engagement and funding as they are demonstrated in Dublin 8 for a six-month period. After this period, they are evaluated to verify the potential to scale their innovations for long-term population health and wellbeing impacts in the area and beyond. The 2025 pilot projects that will begin implementation across the Dublin 8 area this summer include: Early-Stage Cancer Detection by the RCSI University of Medicine & Health Sciences: This project, run by the PRiCAN research group, aims to support expedited cancer diagnoses through an AI-powered digital scribe tool, which will assist in diagnostic consultations in Centric Health GP practices in Dublin 8. The tool will support GPs by reducing administrative burden and monitoring conversations with patients for subtle symptom patterns potentially linked to cancers with the aim of prompting earlier investigation and diagnosis. Football Cooperative by Football Cooperative CLG: This project, led by Steven O'Connell, aims to engage men in positive health behaviours through weekly pick-up football games, encouraging conversations about men's overall physical, mental and social health. Backed by South-East Technological University (SETU), the programme has already demonstrated a social return of €17.60 for every €1 invested and will aim to co-develop a robust outcome framework to enable national scaling through partners, including the FAI and Local Sports Partnerships. Smart Heart: Heart Failure Care in the Community by patientMpower and in partnership with St James's Hospital Heart Support Unit: Led by Eamonn Costello and Eimear Kelly, this project involves the remote monitoring of individuals living with heart failure, a condition that affects 2% of Ireland's population. Patients will receive connected devices that transmit blood pressure and weight data to clinicians in real-time, enabling the trial of a scalable model of community-based chronic care. Jack Lehane, Smart D8 Ecosystem Manager, said: "As Smart D8 enters its fifth consecutive year, I am delighted to announce the three pilot projects that will be demonstrated with the Dublin 8 community. Each year, the quality of applications for Smart D8 is increasing, which is a re...

Building Ireland's cyber resilience

Senator Craughwell leads the charge to a secure digital future Ireland's digital progress has been extraordinary. From online banking and healthcare systems to remote learning and connected infrastructure, the nation has embraced digitalisation across every sector. However, this transformation has come at a cost. As our digital footprint expands, so too does our exposure to cyber threats. Cybersecurity is no longer just a technical issue. It is a public concern and a national responsibility. We often picture cyberattacks as distant or unlikely events, something that happens to big tech companies or foreign governments. Attacks in recent years have shown that Ireland is not immune. Irish institutions - such as the HSE in 2021 - have faced serious disruptions, but so too have countless smaller businesses. Many incidents never make headlines but the reality is that companies' systems, data, personal privacy, financial assets, and systems managed by IT and OT (operational technology) are under continuous threat. What makes these attacks so dangerous is not just their sophistication. It's how easily they succeed. In most cases, breaches begin with one thing: human error. It can be as simple as an employee opening a fraudulent email, a manager misunderstanding a digital risk, or a staff member who is unaware that their actions have consequences far beyond their screen. Awareness is the missing link Awareness is the critical missing link in our national defence. Most successful cyberattacks don't rely on elite hacking tools; they rely on people not being prepared. Attackers exploit gaps in understanding - gaps that exist in homes, schools, businesses and public services. Awareness needs to be treated as a core component of Ireland's cybersecurity response. Without it, no software or firewall can offer enough protection. Ireland's small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly vulnerable. They make up most of the country's enterprises and employ the majority of our workforce. Yet, many of these organisations do not have dedicated cybersecurity teams or robust training in place. The same applies to charities, community organisations, and voluntary services - sectors that handle sensitive data and are crucial to local life but often lack the resources or know-how to defend against threats. The risk is real. The consequences are national. Partnered with CJHNetwork, Data Edge have participated in conducting cyber reviews across Ireland. We found that a number of SMEs within critical supply chains have already been targeted by cyberattacks. These organisations support navigation, satellite communication, and other essential infrastructure which are of strategic importance. This highlights the growing vulnerabilities in sectors vital to public safety and national services. Building national cyber resilience Cyber risk is not theoretical. It is here, it is growing, and it is reaching into the heart of our critical infrastructure. So, what must Ireland do? How do we build resilience before the next wave of attacks hits us harder? We need a coordinated national effort - one that combines public awareness, skilled training, and long-term investment. It should also ensure consistent funding and empower policy makers to deliver widespread public engagement. This includes strengthening support for SMEs and community organisations, expanding cybersecurity training and awareness across all levels of society, and building a skilled and diverse workforce through education, outreach, and accelerated recruitment. Ireland must also invest in the infrastructure, tools, and partnerships that will enable long-term resilience and readiness. Our active involvement as part of a national cybersecurity consortium includes participation in discussions at Leinster House and ongoing collaboration with policymakers, and we recognise that collective insights and local experience are key to shaping Ireland's cybersecurity landscape.

"Sometimes work just fucking sucks"That's what David Strano said back on the Decline episode, and if you're not careful, saying smart things gets you volun-told for a guest appearance on the pod. David's a former touring roadie turned HSE director. That basically means he knows a lot about both parts of the PRS podcast, so the boys are considering just handing over the reins. Shit, he even knows what episode number we're on.It's a rare episode when there's not a NOFX song title involved, but this one goes way back in time with The Clash's "Career Opportunities" as a reference to shit jobs, success, and just getting things done in the face of a lot of competing goals.Since David has a real job (even closer to the actual work than Ron), we had a cool opportunity to talk about workplace safety as it's seen and lived with by folks doing work, especially those at the front line.David did 20 years of touring before Covid, and that's pretty rad. Except for the safety part. Nobody actually does that, apparently. It's the wild west, as David says, and shit happens as you might expect.There's a big difference between compliance and looking for high-performance safety, but the reality is that compliance is still important, even if it isn't the complete answer. The boys talk a little bit about the difference between awareness and something mattering, too. And tolerability - like the idea that if you choose to work here in a high-risk industry, you've basically said you accept some level of risk.Later in the discussion, all of those ideas tie together in a conversation about where expectations from customers fit in. Priorities - like getting a facility opened on time - mean safety drifts back to the old school view of production vs. protection, even when we're focused on more contemporary ideas. FSMM isn't meant to be the real deal, but there are times when it sure looks and feels like it is.Anyway, it's an episode focused on how tradeoffs materialize at work, how having multiple folks with checkbooks shapes safety, and where compliance fits into discussions about front-line work grappling with safety as an academic abstraction.Have fun, punkers!  DISCLAIMER: You probably shouldn't take anything in this podcast too seriously. Punk Rock Safety is for entertainment only. It's definitely not a replacement for professional or legal advice, and the fair amount of piss-taking, shithousery, and general ridiculousness ought to clue you into the fact that no one - and no organization - is endorsing (or un-endorsing, if that's a thing) any products, ideas, or other things.

Pat Leahy and Harry McGee join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:· Committees of the Oireachtas are indeed back, but rigor and insight seem to be missing in some of the questions posed by politicians during RTÉ's appearance in front of the Oireachtas media committee on Wednesday.· Independent TDs Barry Heneghan and Gillian Toole, who support the Government, put a dent in the Coalition's majority by voting in favour of a Sinn Féin Bill in support of Palestine.· Former Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams was awarded €100,000 after a jury found he was defamed by a 2016 BBC TV programme and related article that falsely accused him of sanctioning the murder of a British agent.· And is it time to disband Children's Health Ireland? Minister for Health Jennifer Carroll-MacNeill is considering subsuming the statutory body into the HSE following several controversies during its six years in existence.Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· The tight Polish presidential race, looming climate fines, the rise of the campervan, and the wonderful Cáit O'Riordan.

Pat Leahy and Harry McGee join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:· Ireland's decision to participate in a European-wide initiative celebrating Norman heritage and influence has drawn the ire of Sinn Féin. The initiative is called '2027 The Year of the Normans – People of Europe', and Cabinet approved plans to mark 1000 years since the birth of England's first Norman king William the Conqueror have been labelled “offensive” by the Opposition party.· In a move to start the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza after Israel's near three-month blockade, a majority of EU states have backed a proposal to review the union's agreement governing relations with Israel.· The HSE estimates that the number of children on waiting lists for disability or autism services will grow from 15,000 now to 25,000 by the end of the year, something disability rights campaigner Cara Darmody (14) highlighted with a 50-hour protest outside Leinster House this week.Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· Joe Biden's cognitive and physical decline, hurling at its most biblical, and the four distinct categories that leaders fall into.
