E26 Ruairi McKiernan on Travelling, Fear, Mindfulness, & Embracing Uncertainty.

In episode 26 it was my pleasure to sit down with Ruairi McKiernan. Ruairi is a social innovator, leader, writer, speaker, and member of Ireland's Council of State. During our conversation we discussed the following topics; What it was like growing up near the Northern Irish border in the 1980s. The benefits of trying to live a fearless life. Ruairi's involvement with creating Ireland's biggest youth website, SpunOut. Burnout and disillusion. Meditatiopn and mindfulness. The benefits of travelling, both at home and abroad. Hitch-hiking and relying on the kindness of strangers. Leadership and vision. Ruairi reluctantly mentions that he hopes to finish a book soon! There were loads of thing mentioned by Ruairi throughout the podcast, all of which will be included in the episode notes over at inspirelandpodcast.com. Enjoy the episode, Dave.
