Episode description

This week, we’re treating you to a special bonus episode featuring the insightful psychotherapist you may recognise from his Sunday Times best-selling book “Ten to Zen”, it’s the wonderful Owen O’Kane.


Owen joins Kate for a candid conversation about his unique journey to becoming a therapist. From witnessing the troubles in Northern Ireland first-hand, struggling to accept his sexuality, to finally stepping into the spotlight. Becoming a therapist wasn’t a straightforward journey either. It began with Owen training to be a priest and later working in palliative care, until finally discovering his true calling as a therapist.


Owen and Kate also tackle some listener questions, such as “Can you be in therapy for too long?” and “What simple exercises can help with worry and anxiety?”
