Hey everyone! Today’s episode is one of those deep chats that I know will land with so many of you.We’re diving into how to STOP suffering by aligning with the Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, but in a way that actually makes sense in real life.You don’t need to live in the Himalayas or have everything “figured out.” You just need to start practicing presence, awareness, and alignment. I’m breaking down how I apply each spiritual law in my own messy, human, everyday way, so you can too.Expect real talk, relatable stories, and simple tools that help you stop resisting life and start flowing with it.And yes… if you’ve been feeling disconnected, judgmental, or like you’re “behind” in life, this one’s your reminder: you’re exactly where you’re meant to be. 💫Listen all the way through because the last few laws (especially Karma and Dharma) might just change how you see your whole purpose.✨✨This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp, the online therapy platform that matches users with licensed therapists to support mental and emotional wellbeing.

Feeling stuck or uninspired? Here's why learning something new could change your brain and your life.In this season opener, Sinead Hegarty brings a refreshing wave of energy and wisdom, reflecting on her recent personal milestones and what she's been learning along the way. From studying positive psychology to completing a half marathon, Sinead draws compelling links between everyday habits and brain-enhancing science.She dives deep into how learning new things boosts neuroplasticity, memory, and even emotional regulation by strengthening your brain’s gray matter and prefrontal cortex. Through heartfelt personal stories and scientific insights, she reveals how meditation and learning spark dopamine, build cognitive reserves, and even mimic the psychological effects of “runner’s high.”Future episodes promise to explore relationships, early love, and spiritual growth, all through a psychology-backed lens.🎧 If you’re ready to feel inspired, mentally sharper, and more connected to your purpose, this episode is your sign to press play.🎁 Special thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this episode! #AD Get 10% off your first month: betterhelp.com/sinead✨ JOIN THE BRAVE MEDITATION HUB!

What Do a Viral GAA Catfish Scandal and Molly-Mae’s Latest Documentary Have in Common? More Than You Might Think… 👀At first glance, the GAA Catfish scandal and Molly-Mae’s documentary seem completely different—one is about deception, the other about personal growth. But both stories highlight something we see every day: the power of perception, the illusions created on social media, and the role intention plays in shaping our reality.🔍 Inside This Episode:🔹 The GAA Catfish & The Illusion of Identity – This wild story proves how easy it is to manipulate perception online. It raises huge questions about why people create false personas and why we fall for them.🔹 Molly-Mae & The Pressure of Public Image – On the other side, Molly-Mae’s documentary explores how public perception affects self-worth, and how the pressure to be seen a certain way can lead to living up to an illusion rather than your authentic self.🔹 The Role of Intention – Whether it’s a fake identity or a curated highlight reel, both stories remind us that we shape our own reality—consciously or unconsciously. The key is intentionality: Are you building a life that’s true to you, or one designed to impress others?🔹 How This Ties into Manifestation – The way we present ourselves, the stories we tell, and the intentions we set shape our lives more than we realize. Whether we’re manifesting success or falling into the trap of external validation, our intentions determine the reality we experience.At the core of both stories is a big question:👉 Are we in control of our identity, or is social media controlling it for us?🎁 Special thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this episode! #AD Get 10% off your first month: betterhelp.com/sineadFit, Healthy & Happy Podcast Welcome to the Fit, Healthy and Happy Podcast hosted by Josh and Kyle from Colossus...Listen on: Apple Podcasts   Spotify✨ JOIN THE BRAVE MEDITATION HUB!

Loved this episode! I've been listening to your podcast on my daily walks with my 7 week old baby girl and I'm loving them! I got home, got a new notebook out and started writing out my goals while following this podcast. It has gotten me so excited for the future and has given me plenty of clarity about what's important to me! Thank you 😊
