Dr Katriona O' Sullivan is an academic and best-selling author of 'Poor' which is the story of her life growing up in extreme poverty as the child of two heroin addicts and how she survived abuse, neglect and became pregnant and homeless at fifteen before finding an access course in her twenties at Trinity College that changed her life.

Dr. Katriona O'Sullivan is a married mother of three and her family and close relationships are her definition of success after what she missed out on when she was young. She has also been hugely successful in her career as a Psychologist and Senior Lecturer at Maynooth University and she also devotes her time to promoting and creating policies around access to education.

CW: addiction, childhood poverty, sexual assaultNo person has been suggested more for this podcast than Dr. Katriona O'Sullivan, so she immediately came to mind when I was considering who I'd like to speak to for these extended episodes over Christmas. Katriona is an award-winning professor whose memoir Poor was published this year and went on to recently win two Irish Book Awards.Poor tells the story of Katriona's experience of growing up in poverty with two addicted parents. She writes in an open and unflinching manner about the challenges she faced, the power of self-belief and also offers real insight into how society can best support people who are at a disadvantage from the get-go.While Katriona experienced many challenges I did not, there are some parallels between our early childhoods which made reading her book a profound experience for me, and also fed into this episode which is less of an interview and more of a conversation. I hope you'll forgive my tears. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We live in an unequal society, one that doesn't support or protect our most vulnerable and marginalised people. We can have all of the mental health programmes and motivational talks we want, but if people's most basic needs aren't being met how can we expect them to survive, never mind thrive?  Niall is joined by Katriona O'Sullivan, a Doctor of Psychology and Senior Lecturer who grew up in deep poverty. Having endured abuse, addicted parents, a teenage pregnancy, homelessness and a society that told her she would never amount to anything, it was education that changed Katriona's life. She explains how education opened her eyes to the inequalities in the world, why virtue signalling with poor people is just not good enough and what real, impactful ways we can begin to level the playing field and create real change for those living in poverty.  This episode deals with some difficult topics, please take care when listening.  Tickets for the Where Is My Mind? live tour: https://linktr.ee/bressie  Follow Niall on IG @bressie, TikTok @niallbreslin, FB @whereismymindpodcast and Twitter @nbrez and visit his website: www.niallbreslin.com.

Richie first met Dr Katriona O'Sullivan - an academic in Maynooth University's Department of Psychology - about seven years ago but at the time, he had no idea about her backstory: a childhood spent in extreme poverty in England as part of an Irish family in which both her parents suffered from long-term addiction issues.Despite being surrounded by adults and structures which continuously failed her, Katriona enrolled in Trinity College aged 23 and forged an academic career while raising her young family. She chats to Richie from her home in Dublin about the empathy she brings to speaking about her parents, how confiding in the people you're supposed to trust as a child brings no guarantee of safety, and how no one can lift themselves out of poverty without a system that's designed to help them do it.Earlier this year, Katriona published a bestselling memoir, ‘Poor', laying out her incredible story in unflinching detail, a memoir which has now received two Irish Book Award nominations. Episode is brought to you by NOW and is a Second Captains production. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

She told us about growing up in poverty and with parents who were addicts, having a child at 15, and ending up homeless, suffering with her own addiction - and then how she turned it all around. We talk about how teachers can have an incredible, transformative impact on the life of a kid who's struggling - or they an do the opposite. Katriona is a powerhouse and her story is inspirational. She is the author of a new book, telling her owns tory, called 'Poor'.

Raised by addicts, Dr Katriona O'Sullivan defied the odds to become a university lecturer. Her parents were addicted to heroin, she was neglected and not fed. But for the care she received from two influential teachers and the occasional stroke of luck, life may have gone in a very different direction. Katriona's written a book about her life called Poor.

AL and Deedee go to the home of James and Katriona. James is an architect who is taking on the huge project of recording the buildings of Shrewsbury by drawing them in the most immaculate detail. Starting from the bottom of Wyle Cop and working his way to the top, on both sides, James already has a collection that is of the highest quality. We speak to both James and Katriona about the kind of buzz this has created across social media and how much work has to go into making these fantastic drawings. Why is James doing this? How much of this has become an obsession and how difficult is it to capture these buildings in such a perfect way? We find out all this and more on the week's episode.

Time Codes: 00:00:24 - Introduction 00:02:14 - Setup of interview 00:03:59 - Interview with Katriona Chapman 01:06:41 - Wrap up 01:07:15 - Contact us Katriona Chapman first came to our attention through her work at Avery Hill Publishing. She works in marketing there, and back in summer of 2015 she introduced Tillie Walden. Tillie's first book, The End of Summer, had just been released, and Kat worked was instrumental in setting up an interview with the very young artist. But over the subsequent year, we've come to know Kat as more of an artist herself. She had done a lot of illustration work for children's books, but it was her self-published comic, Katzine, that specifically caught our attention. In fact, we had discussed Katzinein a special episode from last year, where we looked at self-published comics. In one of the later issues of Katzineshe mentions working on her first book, an autobiographical work centered on her travels in Mexico. Last month that book, Follow Me In, was released by Avery Hill. This is a fascinating travelogue about her experiences touring Mexico, it's diverse regions, its many ruins, and its vibrant cultures. As you'll hear in this interview, Kat doesn't only write about her experiences touring in this new book, but she also explores her problematic relationship with her companion as well as her own efforts as an artist. As such, Follow Me Inis much more than a travelogue. It's an account of a young artist undergoing new experiences and using those to grow as a creator and to define her art.  

This month we have Katriona Chapman and Elizabeth Querstret in conversation with an interesting chat about the challenges of telling other people's stories in your own autobiographical work, give a shout out to OK Comics in Leeds and the Panel Borders Podcast and share some news on our appearance at MCM London.

Time Codes: 00:00:29 - Introduction 00:02:36 - Listener messages! 00:08:24 - HeroesCon, podcast fans, and self-published comics 00:14:58 - Greek Diary 00:37:36 - Paper Pencil Life 00:59:42 - KatZine 01:16:04 - Wrap up 01:17:17 - Contact us This week on The Comics Alternative, Andy and Derek do something they've never done before on the podcast: discuss only self-published titles. They got the idea for this special episode from one of the creators they look at, Glynnis Fawkes, when she was kind enough to send them copies of her latest book. So after hearing from her, Derek and Andy thought, "Why not devote an entire episode to creators like Glynnis?" Appropriately enough, they begin with Fawkes's book, Greek Diary, which won the 2017 MoCCAfest Award of Excellence. This is an account of the author's experiences in Greece during June and early July 2016. Fawkes devoted the first part of her diary to her work as an archeological illustrator, but the majority of the text covers the time that her family joined her for vacation after her professional obligations. As the Two Guys reveal, this part of Greek Diary is an entertaining mix between a travelogue and a journal of familial "challenges." (If you've ever traveled with small children, you certainly know what that means.) Next, they discuss the first four issues of Summer Pierre's Pencil Paper Life. This is Pierre's ongoing collection of diary comics that she began keeping back in 2013. Each issue is a series of the creator's occasional observations, reflections, and personal accounts that mostly follow a standard nine-panel grid. These comics explore her life as an artist, memories linked to pop-cultural signposts, her efforts in negotiating varying social terrains, and especially her joys -- as well as her struggles -- in being a mother. Finally, the guys wrap up with Katriona Chapman's KatZine. At the time of the recording there are so far seven issues that have been released, and this title stands out from Fawkes's and Pierre's in several ways. First, KatZine is more of a single-author anthology, with there being a variety of entries, including several regular features (including "Sergio Talk!," "Local Business," "Featured Plant," and "Fears and Loves"). It's also different in that the comic is a mix between straight-out comics and prose-heavy pieces. In other words, this is a zine in the more traditional sense. But KatZine also stands in contrast to Greek Diary and Paper Pencil Life in that it's not entirely autobiographically based. There are a few pieces collected among the seven issues that are clearly fictional in nature. What's more, in some of her more recent issues Chapman expresses her interests in melding life writing with fiction, an impulse that she is apparently carrying into her first graphic novel.
