For this episode I am joined by Ali Ryan, CEO and founder of popular website GOSS.ie. Ali kindly shares her story with me, after having experienced public shaming following a sexual encounter with a former partner that she had assumed was private but found out it had been recorded and then shared without her consent. The anxiety that ensued was crippling for this woman who now bravely opens up about something that to this day is incredibly difficult for her. We also talk generally about public shaming, cancel culture and how nasty things can get online, which can be such a source of anxiety for all of us listening too.

My new book NAKED is out now, and as per the title, it will change your life, I promise! Buy it here if you're in Ireland, or here if outside of Ireland.
