Podcast Description
My husband used to say something that always stuck with me. He said “Your goals should SCARE you a little and EXCITE you a lot.”
My goal for the PODCAST is to :
- Shine a spotlight on the great work that caregivers do to transform patients lives
- Raise awareness of the importance of Occupational Therapy to improve patient care
- Share heartfelt stories from real patients across the world
This project has been both scary and exciting... but I’m so pleased with the result!
I hope you enjoy!

In this episode of The Martina Tierney Podcast, Martina is joined by executive coach, speaker and author Caroline McKenna for an honest and inspiring conversation about self-leadership, confidence and sustainable growth.
Caroline shares the personal story behind her book, Lead Self First: 7 Inspired Steps to Unlock Next Level Growth, including the moment her young daughter told her, “You’d rather work than spend time with me.” It became a powerful wake-up call and led Caroline to examine the thoughts, habits and behaviours that were driving her to overwork.
Together, Martina and Caroline explore how our inner stories can either hold us back or help us move forward. They discuss imposter syndrome, working to your strengths, stepping outside your comfort zone and the importance of replacing limiting beliefs with thoughts that are both honest and empowering.
The conversation also looks at self-care, particularly for business leaders, healthcare professionals and anyone working in a caring role. Caroline explains why rest is not selfish, why overworking is not always a sign of commitment, and how looking after yourself allows you to show up better for your family, your team and the people you serve.
This episode is a thoughtful reminder that real growth begins within. It is not about constantly doing more. It is about leading yourself with greater awareness, protecting your energy and giving yourself permission to become the best version of who you already are.
