Real Talks

We were joined by Leanne Kiernan for the latest episode of the Real Talks with SOSAD Ireland well-being series. A brilliant footballer from Bailieborough in Cavan, Leanne has represented Ireland at the highest level. She is also the reigning player of the year for Liverpool Football Club. Leanne reflects on the ups and downs of her journey so far and explains how tough times have helped her to build resilience and confidence. Leanne also shares her experience of grief and discusses the importance of friendship, family and reaching out for professional support. Just to note, this conversation was recorded at the start of the season before Leanne picked up the injury that has kept her out of Ireland’s recent world cup qualification success. We wish her a speedy recovery and have no doubt she will be back on the pitch soon. Our host Alan O’Mara is the founder of Real Talks, a former Cavan GAA player, an author and a performance and wellbeing coach with sports and business leaders around the world. Check
