About this episode
This week, I sit down with a woman who is enjoying the most beautiful phase of success and fulfillment. Deirdre O’Kane is packing out comedy theaters across the country, has lit up your TV screens across the UK and Ireland in shows like Last One Laughing, Paths to Freedom, Moone Boy, Gogglebox and Dancing with the Stars and she joined me this week to discuss Paths to Wisdom.
As an actor, Deirdre scooped an IFTA for her performance in the powerful film Noble and is the driving force behind Comic Relief Ireland. The beautiful thing about this podcast is that we often get to go places with our guests that maybe they rarely get a chance to explore and this episode is definitely one of those occasions. It’s a fascinating, warm and really inspiring discussion and I can’t wait for you to hear it.
It’s fair to say, we see a side to Deirdre you don’t often see in this conversation as she takes us on a journey through dealing with the life-threatening illness of her husband, the gift of performance, finding a new confidence and energy after raising children and the spiritual tools she has used to bring the colour out in everything she does.
If you wanna catch Deirdre on stage you’re in luck! Her new comedy tour “O’Kaning it” has just kicked off so go book your tickets, they’re going fast!
