Shannon Malseed is a remarkable individual who has taken the leap from being a professional cyclist with one of the biggest teams in the world to forging her own path. For some, cycling is the ultimate dream, but Shannon realised it wasn't hers, and she made the brave choice to follow her true calling. Today, she’s an advocate for living a ‘Limitless’ life, empowering others to break down self-imposed barriers and unlock their true potential. Shannon delves deep into emotional and energetic blocks that could be affecting your health and happiness as you age. Shannon's insights offer us a blueprint for breaking free from the limitations that hold us back, something that I know will resonate with many of you who have spent years focused on career and family, and sometimes that comes  at the expense of your own well-being.

Peter Ryan was an up and coming local athlete in Irelands National Sports but his world came crashing down around him when he was diagnosed with Leber’s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy, a genetically inherited form of vision loss which left him legally blind with less than 10 per cent vision. After a couple of dark years, Ryan eventually accepted his new circumstances and found direction in his life again. Sport had largely defined the person he was before he lost his sight and once again it became his north star. After impressing with his testing score on a watt bike for a Paralympics open day in 2012, he was placed on a fast-track programme and just six months later was a national tandem cycling champion. He went on to compete in the Rio paralympics in 2016. Now Peter takes on another epic challenge, running the length of Ireland, a 586 kilometre route in just five days and his conversation with Anthony is inspirational and up-lifting.
