32 Questions is back. In this episode, we speak to former Fine Gael TD Kate O'Connell. Kate is a rare Fine Gael voice on our podcast, but much like Fine Gael itself, United Ireland is a broad church. In this episode, Kate discusses losing her seat in the 2020 general election, her constituency relationship with Eoghan Murphy, her assessment of Fine Gael's direction under the leadership of Leo Varadkar, the Golfgate saga, as well as vodka tonics, how her upbringing formed her outlook, her experience of sexism in Irish electoral politics, her role in the Repeal movement, that infamous "choir boys singing for their supper" comment, her fearlessness, and whether or not she'll contest another election in the future.
Have you ever grumbled over a school decision or policy? It’s easy to slip into an us-versus-them dynamic. But behind every individual and every decision there’s more than meets the eye. Open minded communication is key. “Come early and come often. Don't wait till you're completely disheartened and frustrated.” This goes for the relationships between teachers and administrators as well. “What I'm inquiring into is: How can we create an environment of relational trust and psychological safety? So that we all trust that everyone is working equally hard and doing their job. Being judgmental? There really isn't space for that kind of critique.” Kate shares How parents often skip a crucial step and jump right to “gathering” around an issue Your perceived solution may or may not actually solve the problem Why teachers might not be excellent at handling confrontations with parents The importance of knowing your child’s teachers and administrators as people and more.

Nurses have been a part of every aspect of care with the coronavirus pandemic — taking care of patients, communicating with families, writing health guidelines, spreading public health messages, and even advising public officials as they open or close businesses and schools. This is a reflection of the changing roles of nurses. Today, nurses are highly specialized, they have branched out into new areas of medicine and health care leadership. Still, nurses remain on the front lines of patient care. They communicate with doctors, relay patient wishes, and address family concerns. On this episode, we look into how nursing is changing, and how that’s affecting patient care. Also heard on this week’s episode: Sexual assault examinations are crucial for criminal prosecutions — but not all ER nurses know how to do them. Reporter Stephanie Marudas heads to one hospital in rural Pennsylvania that’s using technology to connect forensic nurses with expert practitioners who can walk them through the process. Nursing historian Patricia D’Antonio of the University of Pennsylvania discusses nurses’ role in advocating for public health reforms. An average day in the emergency room is never easy, and during a pandemic, the stakes are even higher — with more patients needing critical care. ER nurse and audio producer Kate O’Connell shares what it’s like working on the front lines of the coronavirus outbreak in the Transom series “Pandemic ER: Notes From A Nurse In Queens.” When long-time nurse and former hospital CEO Sandra Gomberg got the call to build a coronavirus surge facility at Temple University’s Liacouras Center, she knew she had to step up. We talk with Gomberg about how her background as a nurse helped her lead this effort.
Kate O'Connell is a radio producer and a registered nurse who lives and works in New York City, where the coronavirus hit with force. In addition to working in an ER in Queens, Kate has also been chronicling her experiences with the overwhelming reality of this pandemic. We've been featuring Kate’s audio letters on Transom and in our podcast all along, and have just compiled them into an hour, produced with Samantha Broun. We can't say this is an easy listen, but it's an important one. We're grateful to Kate for doing this so that the rest of us might hear and know what we otherwise wouldn't be able to.

What does it take to get through a global pandemic? How do you keep going, keep working, get up every day and hope for the best? Around the world, people are discovering the answer through their own sense of resilience — the resources within ourselves and our communities that brace us against outside pressures, allowing us to bend, and not break. On this episode, we explore what resilience means, with stories about people facing down sometimes impossible situations, and finding a way to adapt, recover, and eventually bounce back. We hear about an Olympic athlete who is dealing with the historic postponement of Tokyo 2020, an ER nurse in New York City treating patients with COVID-19, and we’ll find out why kids may emerge stronger on the other side of this pandemic. Also heard on this week’s episode: David Fajgenbaum was in medical school when he was diagnosed with Castleman disease — a rare and deadly illness with no known cure. We hear about Fajgenbaum’s extraordinary fight to not only survive, but find a possible cure. Since we reported that story, Fajgenbaum has begun to work on finding a possible treatment for the cytokine storms that occur with both Castleman and COVID-19. You can read more about David Fajgenbaum’s journey in his book: “Chasing My Cure: A Doctor’s Race to Turn Hope Into Action.” Michael Ungar — a therapist, social work professor, and director of the Resilience Research Centre at Dalhousie University — explains how community and social structure play into our shared resilience. An average day in the emergency room is never easy, and during a pandemic, the stakes are even higher — with more patients needing critical care. ER nurse and audio producer Kate O’Connell shares what it’s like working on the front lines of the coronavirus outbreak in the Transom series “Pandemic ER: Notes From A Nurse In Queens.” We also hear from Donna Nickitas, dean and professor of nursing at Rutgers University-Camden, on what nurses can do to get through this tough time. Primary care practices play an important role as a first line of defense with our health in general, but the pandemic could threaten their survival. Dan Gorenstein, host of the podcast Tradeoffs, explains why these providers are facing tough choices to keep their doors open. During this pandemic, many friends and colleagues have turned to Aisha Ahmad, assistant professor of political science at the University of Toronto, to share her experiences adapting to and surviving war zones and disease outbreaks around the world. She’s writing a series of essays for The Chronicle of Higher Education and recorded her advice for us. How are kids dealing with all of this — not going to school, not seeing their friends, and their parents being all kinds of stressed out? We check in with Kim Wheeler Poitevien, a clinical social worker in Philadelphia, on the resiliency of children.

How can an understanding of the interconnectedness of all things lead to powerful life changing breakthroughs? Therapist Kate O'Connell, LPC, explores helpful insights from her new book Beyond the Imprint: A New Modality for Mental Health Practitioners and Those Seeking Their Help. With the advent of Quantum Physics, a new paradigm within the field of counseling is emerging that acknowledges we are intimately interconnected with our environment and everything in it. We are not separate from what is occurring "outside" of ourselves. Beyond the Imprint therapy creates a safe therapeutic experience which allows for the exploration and identification of patterns of distorted self idenity, behavior and relationships, clearing the way to the actualization of one's true self and one's truest desires. Kate O'Connell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a private practice in Charlottesville, VA, addressing the therapeutic needs of children, adolescents, adults and families. Her training in Intensive-in-Home Services, Addiction, Family Systems Therapy and Energy Medicine enables her to facilitate positive outcomes for her clients. In addition to her clinical training, Kate has studied and trained with many different teachers and healers from a diversity of spiritual frameworks and healing modalities, allowing her to work with the people she assists in an expansive, holistic way.

This week on The Floating Voter, Kevin Doyle is joined by Philip Ryan and Niall O' Connor and we have a lot to talk about this week, starting with Fine Gael's vice-chairman of their executive council Barry Walsh's controversial tweets and with Fine Gael party conference last weekend we talk about Leos denial of the housing crisis. Then with Sinn Féin Ard Fheis coming up we take a look at what Gerry Adams may have in store in his live televised address.
The brain and the body don’t always know the difference between a real event and a memory. When we experience trauma and pain, we can store it in the body and sometimes re-experience it over and over again, paralyzing us and holding us back from fully embracing the joy and love that life can offer us. We are often imprinted by these traumas. Not because we’re broken or dysfunctional but because we are programmed for survival. These traumatic imprints serve to protect us, keep us aware and on our toes, preparing to defend ourselves should we re-expereince these traumas in our lives again. We think that we need to heal our minds. Just change our thinking about events, or even try to not think about traumatic events or losses again. But the imprint in our body overrides our minds and even the most intense attempt at mind mastery sometimes can’t change the impact of the imprint of events on our body. These imprints can keep us in a constant state of low grade stress and stimulate our adrenals causing us eventually to burn out in life. This burnout can be physical, emotional and even spiritual, leaving us living our lives in pain or forcing us to turn off the full light of our being in order to survive on a day to day basis. Think about this for a moment. Ask yourself, are you living life full on? Do you leap out of bed each and every day eager to get at life? Do you drag yourself home at the end of the day and hide out with Netflix and your favorite ice cream? Do you hide from your dreams. Is quiet despair part of your mindset? Kate O’Connell proposes that we can move beyond the imprinting of trauma in our bodies and that sometimes the trauma we carry isn’t even our own, but a result of things that happened to us generations before we were even born, carried in our epigenetic lineage. To heal, to truly heal, we have to heal on a cellular level and an integrated energetic approach is crucial to making our healing permanent. Join me in the Quantum Conversation with author of Beyond the Imprint - Kate O'Connell.
