Show Notes
In this episode of Life’s Too Short, I’m joined by Feebee Foran - founder of Forager.ie, nature educator, herbalist, and all-round powerhouse.
Feebee lost her Dad suddenly in just 11 days. What followed was a grief she hadn’t expected - intense, physical, and deeply disorienting. She talks about how she kept pushing forward in her corporate job until one day, she couldn’t anymore.
This conversation explores what happens when grief cracks something open in you - and the slow journey back to yourself through nature, creativity, and doing things differently.
We talk about the impact of grief on the body, the emotional isolation of being the “strong one,” and how she began to reimagine life on her own terms - building a business that feels rooted, healing, and aligned.
This one’s about loss, yes - but also joy, belonging, and remembering who you are.
⚠️ Please note: this episode contains discussion of sudden loss and the physical symptoms of grief.

More from life's too short
Christmas can intensify grief in ways you don’t expect. For many people, the festive season brings memories, longing, and a deep sense of absence - especially if you’re facing your first Christmas without someone you love.
This week’s episode is one I’ll carry with me for a long, long time.
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Annabelle Reynolds for an incredibly honest conversation about complex grief - the kind of grief we don’t often talk about publicly. Annabelle shares the story of her father, a deeply kind and vibrant man whose life changed dramatically after the 2008 recession. Over the years, addiction, shame, and difficult family dynamics reshaped their relationship long before his death from esophageal cancer in 2019.
In this solo episode, I reflect on the idea of signs; the small, sometimes strange ways we feel our loved ones near after they’re gone.
In this week’s episode of Life’s Too Short, I speak with Morgan Cummins; an executive coach and recruiter who lost his dad suddenly more than 20 years ago. What began as an unimaginable shock became, over time, one of his greatest teachers.
