The Orlagh Claire Podcast

I can't believe it's finally time to sit down and talk about something that has been months in the making. Today is my last day at work, and I've moved out of my London apartment (and London itself) for good! I'm divulging all the updates, what's happening and where I'm going in this latest episode. Find me on Instagram @orlaghclaire or on YouTube, also @orlaghclaire .

I know it's February already, but 2024 only really started for me a week or so ago when I finally got back to London. So I'm sharing my 8 goals for the year and going in-depth about why I want to achieve these things in the next 12 (11) months.

It's a Saturday night and at 26 years of age, I'm sat at home watching TV. Being honest, I couldn't be more content. But at times I do wonder, am I missing out on my youth? Should I be out drinking and partying with my friends? Another new podcast episode, another new 20s dilemma.

I'm guilty of romanticising the mundane things in my life. A lunch time walk, my commute to work, popping to the shops or sitting in a coffee shop with my laptop. It's easy to snap a pic, pop some emojis in the frame, upload it to Instagram and make the task look wholesome and elevated. But is doing this continuously actually a negative thing? And is being delulu even worse?

When is the 'right time' to move to the other side of the world, to start a new job, to buy a house, to settle down? I'm having another quarter-life crisis and trying to figure out how to navigate being in my mid twenties. Come along for the ride!

I'm debating whether dream jobs actually exist and questioning whether what I think my dream job is, is actually my dream job. Can you have a job that you love, or is a job just there to put food on the table and help pay the bills? Join the discussion and let me know what you think over on Instagram @orlaghclaire or on YouTube @orlaghclaire

I've been MIA for the month of May so thought I would give a little update on what's been happening and where I've been. And I'm also taking the title of this podcast quite literally and telling you about the trips I've been on since the start of 2023, so buckle up for some travel inspiration.

My recent weekend in Liverpool was the inspiration for this episode. Is it time to leave places and memories in the past and no longer revisit? I'm talking Liverpool, Ireland, London and New York in this episode and how things change over time. I'm also recapping my trip to Marrakech and giving you the down-low, as well as talking through my future trips I have coming up. Instagram @orlagh...

This podcast episode looks back at the year of 25 - what I experienced, what it taught me and what I'm bringing into 26. I'm looking forward to my next chapter and discussing what I expect 26 will bring me and what I'm hoping to get out of this next year around the sun. As always, find me on Instagram @orlaghclaire, YouTube @orlaghclaire and Twitter @orlaghshanksPR.

I had a lot of opinions about Australia a few months ago in episode 28, but this week I might be redacting some of those statements.  The more I see of Australia, the more it seems to be calling my name. But do I want to give up my career in London, the hustle and bustle of London, and the possibility of going back to New York, for life by the beach? There's a lot of questions being asked on...

There are now influencers on Instagram and TikTok that are telling you the things you don't need to buy and the trends that you shouldn't be following, just because it's constantly showing up on your For You page. Do we need a $70 Stanley cup? The Dyson Air-Wrap? The mini Uggs? The de-influencer might put me out of a job, but I'm in full support.  Instagram: @orlaghclaire YouTube: @orlaghclai...

Welcome to another episode of The Orlagh Claire Podcast where I ramble about things I'm worried about and the things that keep me up at night. Today's internal crisis is around fashion and that I don't have my own style. What is my fashion aesthetic? Why do I always wear black clothing? Where is Gok Wan when you need him? As always, happy listening! As usual, you can find me on  Instagram: @o...

We touched on this previously in my 2023 Ethos episode, but I thought we could delve even deeper into this because it's something I've incorporated into my life for years and a mindset that has been incredibly beneficial to me and something I think everyone should instil in themselves. Are you ready to be the luckiest girl in the world? As usual, you can find me on Instagram: @orlaghclaire YouTube...

We all know caffeine is something I'm leaving behind in 2022, but in this podcast episode, we get a little bit deep about 'the universe', being lucky, faith (not the religious type) and I chat all about my recent trip to New York.  As usual, you can find me on Instagram: @orlaghclaire YouTube: @orlaghclaire TikTok: @orlaghclaire Website: www.orlaghclaire.com

Welcome to season 3 of the podcast!! As is tradition, I'm starting off the new season and the new year with my goals for 2023. 'Less is more' is the theme for this year, and with less goals, we're going to be more consistent and show up a lot more. Here's a sneak peak of what I've got up my sleeve for 2023 and I'll have an in-depth blog post coming soon too to discuss in more detail. Instagram: @o...

We're wrapping up season two of the podcast today with the last episode of 2022. So instead of looking back at the year that's just passed, we're looking forward to the new year in 2023 and what this has in store already.  There already big words flying around, big changes and big things to come and I'm hoping it's going to be my best year yet.

It's that time of the year again, to look back on the goals I laid out for myself in January 2022 and see how I've tracked. Well, to cut a long story short - I failed miserably.  In today's podcast episode, I go through each and every goal and see if any progress has been made or figure out where things went drastically wrong.  Instagram: @orlaghclaire YouTube: Orlagh Claire Travel

In today's episode, you'll hear me ranting about London for 21 minutes and 14 seconds. I've been thinking and talking about small town life for a while now and it's slowly but surely drawing me in.  While I love the hustle and bustle of a city, I just can't seem to love London in the slightest. I'm weighing up the pros and cons of city life vs a small town and talking about what 2023 has in s...

We're talking ragrets in today's podcast and especially when it comes to posting on social media. The burning question on my mind is, at 25 am I too old to be on TikTok? Come share your thoughts with me about time, energy, posting online and trying to live a life of no regrets. Things get intense as I even drop an f-bomb for the first time on the podcast..

2022 really was the year of travel for me, starting off the year in New York, travelling to Paris, Berlin, Rome, Vienna, Barcelona, Greece, Bali, Copenhagen and some English, Welsh and Irish places in between, I sat down and deep dived into each trip - which was good, which was bad and which was a will-never-go-back-there.  I'm excited to end 2022 in New York, right back to where I started th...

I had something of a heart 'episode' last week shall we say. And since this has probably been a long time coming, I took the time to sit down and think, maybe I'm the problem. Am I the drama? I'm discussing health/lifestyle changes I'm making, updating you on the state of my heart health and telling you why you're too blessed to be stressed.  So if you need some stress/life advice, then let t...
