In this episode of Ordinary Extraordinary, I sit down with Noelle Liston, founder of New Life Therapies in Foynes, Co. Limerick. Noelle’s work is deeply rooted in her own powerful life journey.

In 2006, Noelle survived a devastating car accident and spent 50 days in hospital recovering from multiple injuries. She had to learn how to walk again. That life-changing experience gave her a profound appreciation for the body’s incredible ability to heal and sparked a deep interest in caring for our physical, emotional and energetic wellbeing.

In July 2024, after completing the Dawson Program Corrective Sounds course, Noelle founded New Life Therapies to support others on their own healing journeys. Her holistic approach focuses on restoring balance in mind, body and spirit through therapies such as Aromatouch Massage, Reiki, Theta Healing and Dawson Program Corrective Sounds. Her work combines gentle touch, sound, energy healing and meditation techniques to help release stress, trauma and limiting beliefs so the body can return to a more balanced and optimal state.

In our conversation, Noelle shares openly about growing up, the impact of her accident, being drawn to holistic healing, learning the Dawson Technique, and her experience walking the Camino. It’s an honest, real and inspiring conversation about resilience, healing and finding purpose through life’s challenges.

What do you do when life takes an unexpected turn and everything feels like it’s falling apart?

In this powerful episode of Ordinary, Extraordinary, I sit down with mentor, healer and mindset guide Caroline Caffrey for a deep and meaningful conversation about what it truly means to start again.

Life can shift in ways we never expect — through grief, loss, relationship changes, career setbacks, or moments that challenge our identity and direction. Caroline shares wisdom, compassion and practical insight on how rebuilding your life can become the beginning of something even stronger.

Together we explore the emotional reality of starting again, the courage it takes to move forward, and how life experience can become a powerful foundation for growth, purpose and reinvention.

✨ In this episode we discuss:
• What it really feels like when life falls apart
• The emotional challenges of starting again later in life
• The role of grief in personal transformation
• Where to begin when everything feels broken
• Turning pain into purpose
• Why life experience can become your greatest advantage

This is an honest and inspiring conversation about resilience, healing and the strength that comes from embracing a new chapter.

Because sometimes starting again isn’t failure — it’s refinement.
