The Nosey Fox is a podcast about people and storytelling.

Each episode is an interview with a different person, telling a different story from a chapter of their life.

In this episode, I talk to international Irish field hockey player and member of the Irish hockey team that's representing Ireland in the Olympics 2021, Chloe Watkins.

Chloe talks about growing up in a house of hockey players, trying to balance school and training and the disappointment of being told they were no longer going to the olympics due to Covid19.

My guest this week on The Nosey Fox podcast is 36 year old Eoin Kernan.

I met Eoin for the first time on a very rainy and miserable day in Howth on the 9th of February 2020 when I met him to give him a painting I had done.

In this episode, Eoin talks about having a breakdown and feeling like life was closing in around him, developing a disorder that not many men will ever confess to or want to talk about and how he came out the other side.

Eoin spoke so openly to me about everything and I believe this episode is a beautiful, strong and inspiring reminder that anyone and everyone can suffer with their mental health, but that there is always a solution.

This is Eoin's story.

This episode covers topics related to eating disorders that some might find triggering or distressing.

If you feel you might need help yourself with an eating disorder, below are two links that are a good place to start.

Take care of yourself, your mind and your body. I wanted to share Eoin's story in the hope of inspiring someone that was struggling with something similar and in doubt there was light at the end of the tunnel, because there always is.
