Sinead and Gavin take a look at a new policy that seeks to enhance the country's international reputation through sport - while the government argues that a football game against Israel should not be politicised.Gav went along to the launch of the International Sports Diplomacy Framework on Tuesday to see what it was about, and to get answers on why the government seems to be speaking out of both sides of its mouth.Also up for discussion is how this policy extends Ireland's ambition to host big events, such as the Ryder Cup and NFL games, while modest local facilities in the shadow of Croke Park are under threat.

This week on No More Booze, I'm joined by Sinead Anderson @anderson.sinead a Galway woman living in the south of France, who's three and a half years alcohol-free and wishes she had done it sooner. We chat about growing up shy, using booze for confidence and the years of 'it's fine, everybody does it' attitude until the switch finally flipped.Sinead shares how quitting alongside her husband changed everything: no more shame-filled mornings, more self-acceptance and a real sense of reclaiming who she is. We talk visualisation, using 'I don't drink' as a full sentence, why moderation didn't work and the new dopamine swaps (sea swimming and lifting weights). Sinead is a life coach who's approach reflects that same grounded clarity. She is based in France and works online and in person with her clients. Gentle but attentive, she works with presence and care, listening deeply to what is said and to what might lie beneath the surface. I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as I did recording it.Find Sinead at sineadandersoncoaching.com and on Instagram @anderson.sineadTo find out more about me, my work as an Alcohol-Free Coach & Mentor visit www.greyareadrinker.ie or find me on instagram @greyareadrinker
Hello and welcome to our first official We Will Rank You rerun. You may have noticed that we've had to reupload some old episodes recently that were mistakenly taken down for copyright reasons. I looked at our analytics for the first time in ages and noticed that we had the biggest month we've ever had just because of one extra old episode I'd put back up. I mean, I'm already slowly putting up all of the old episodes on Youtube with fun visuals. I guess I can put up an oldie here too.Jim chose the first one to bring back and he picked episode seven on the self-titled debut of the Stone Roses from 2021. He chose to rank each song in the order that they're on the album, which we only did one other time, for Blur's Parklife, before the others agreed that it was anticlimactic when we named our favorite song in the first few minutes. I told ya. At an hour and 57 minutes, it was our longest episode to date but a couple of episodes later, Sinead passed it by one minute and eventually our 1983 wildcard episode was our longest at nearly three hours. For years, this was our most listened to episode until it was recently taken over by our Wildcard Live Album show.Jim writes: "The hosts agree (I think) that this is the group's favorite album they've ever ranked. I maintain my album picks are the best. No one comes close." He's not right about his picks being the best but this episode probably is in a very close race with Violent Femmes for our biggest surefire lovefest, except for, spoiler alert, Dan's take on Adored, which became an oft-repeated anecdote. Here it tis.Jim's lemony-fresh pick is by FAR the album that the four of us have all loved the most. That combined with Adam being the singer for a ridiculous Stone Roses coverband means that there was a LOT for us to say, resulting in our longest episode yet. However, it's a FUN one. For fans of podcasts that go track-by-track instead of our usual countdown, today is your lucky day for a special episode on this 1989 classic. Special guests include 33 1/3 Stone Roses author Alex Green from Stereo Embers podcast and F#!kin' In The Bushes DJ Daniel Sant!

Sinead and Gavin discuss in-depth the pressing issue of this week, and one that will likely make headlines all year.The FAI have been placed in the unenviable position of having to navigate a path out of the crisis which began when Ireland were drawn to play Israel in the Nations League.Some 93% of the FAI's General Assembly have previously voted to suspend Israel from international football, yet the FAI are committed to fulfilling the fixtures.Will the games go ahead? Where will they take place? What are the potential sanctions if Ireland boycott the fixtures?Can Ireland call Uefa's bluff? What is the worst they can do to Ireland, for making a moral stand against a country that has breached its own rules? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sinead O'Carroll dials in from northern Italy to tell Niall Kelly about all of the sporting and political action in Milano Cortina.Several US athletes, including Amber Glenn and Hunter Hess, have spoken up against the Trump administration this week, which has led to an inevitable backlash from the US President and his Maga base. Sinead relays the atmosphere in Italy and assesses a week where Trump has been further angered at sporting occasions, his displeasure with the Bad Bunny half-time apparent to all with an internet connection. How does this bode for the rest of the Winter Olympics, and the World Cup in the summer?Also, Irish competitors have been flying the flag with honour in Italy. But is there one winter sport in which Ireland could go from zero to powerhouse status? If so, what could it be? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What if tapping for anxiety could calm your nervous system faster than meditation, affirmations, or journaling? If you've tried all the "right" tools to manage anxiety — meditation, breathwork, affirmations — and still feel restless, overwhelmed, or stuck in your head, this episode offers a body-based alternative. Tapping for anxiety, also known as emotional freedom technique (EFT tapping), is a form of somatic healing that uses gentle tapping on meridian points to support nervous system healing and release stored emotional stress. In this episode of Feel Good Nakd, we explore why tapping works especially well for women who struggle to sit still, quiet the mind, or force calm — and how working with the body can create real relief. About the Guest I'm joined by Sinéad Stewart, a certified EFT practitioner who helps people regulate their nervous systems and release stored emotional patterns through tapping. Sinéad shares how she discovered EFT during a period of intense anxiety, why it became the one practice that truly stuck, and how she now guides others through tapping in a grounded, accessible way — especially for those who feel resistant to traditional meditation. Key Moments 00:00 – Why tapping for anxiety works when meditation doesn't 04:30 – What emotional freedom technique (EFT tapping) actually is 08:45 – Nervous system healing through somatic touch 12:10 – Releasing stored emotions from the body 15:30 – Guided tapping for anxiety, fear, and uncertainty Listen For… A calming, practical way to regulate anxiety that doesn't require forcing positivity, silencing your thoughts, or bypassing emotions — just your body, your breath, and a few minutes of intentional release. In this holistic healing podcast episode: How tapping for anxiety supports real-time nervous system regulation Why EFT tapping works when mindset tools fall short The role of somatic healing in releasing stored emotional stress How emotional freedom technique supports long-term nervous system healing A guided tapping practice you can return to whenever anxiety spikes This episode is especially helpful if you experience overthinking, anxiety, fear of the unknown, or feel disconnected from your body despite trying traditional anxiety tools.

Season 2, Episode 1: Welcome to 2026 — The Year of the Horse, The Year of RebuildingIn this opening episode of Season 2 of She's the Standard, Sinead J. Krelle welcomes you into 2026, not as a “new year, new goals” moment, but as the true energetic beginning of a brand-new nine-year cycle.While most people think the year starts on January 1st, this episode breaks down why February marks the real reset, energetically, numerologically, and symbolically, as we move from the Year of the Snake into the Year of the Horse.2025 was a Year Nine. A year of endings, exposure, fatigue, and deep identity shifts. If last year dismantled parts of your life, business, or sense of self, this episode reframes that season for what it really was: preparation.2026 is a Year One, the seed year. The foundation year. The year where what you build now compounds for the next decade.In this episode, Sinead dives into: • Why the Year of the Horse brings momentum, courage, and freedom, but only if you have structure • Why standards matter more than goals in Year One • How reconstruction, not motivation, is the real work of 2026 • What it means to lead, build, and decide from embodiment instead of urgency • Why the choices you make in Q1 set the tone for the next nine yearsThe episode closes with two powerful questions designed to anchor your energy and set a clear baseline for the decade ahead, questions that will be explored even deeper in Episode 2.This is not a hype episode. It's a recalibration.If you're ready to stop rushing, stop rebuilding emotionally, and start building properly, this episode sets the standard.
