‘Change is possible’ - that’s the message of Doctor and Neuroscientist Brian Pennie, who is about to deliver his first talk at Maynooth University since his studies there.

The university is celebrating 25 years of its Psychology Department, and is hosting a number of free events to mark the occasion, which are open to the public.

The event is taking place on October 8th, and coincides with the day Dr. Brian Pennie recovered from his heroin addiction.

12 years on, he has obtained a PhD and uses his platform to help people who are looking to turn their life around…

He also hosts the ‘Change is Possible’ podcast, which encourages everyone to pursue the very best version of themselves.

Dr. Brian Pennie joins Seán to discuss.
