Although many of us want to leave the Covid-19 pandemic in the past, it’s important we reflect and really consider the impact it had on us individually and societally, and the incredible coping skills it highlighted in us all. 

Niall is joined by Dr. Brendan Kelly, a psychiatrist and author with a list of degrees as long as your arm, including epidemiology, health management, history and Buddhist studies. Brendan’s new book ‘Resilience’ looks back on the profound impact that Covid had on our lives, but also the perseverance and growth it brought to the forefront. Niall and Brendan discuss the need to redefine how we use the word resilience, to see it as something innate in us and not something to constantly strive for. They also discuss the lessons we can learn from history in our mental health treatment, along with Brendan’s second recent book ‘Asylum: Inside Grangegorman’ which tells the stories of those who lived and worked in one of Ireland’s most infamous asylums.
