Throughout the podcast series, we have heard so much of Karen's vibrant and diverse career from nursing to being an air hostess and of course being a celebrant. However, one area she hasn't explored a lot on the podcast is her background in psychotherapy.
Feargh asked a simple question at the start of the episode on how Karen got into psychotherapy and the answer is a full episode which explores following your gut, taking risks, working hard, trusting the process and so much more.
Karen discusses her journey and her work in psychotherapy from a conversation that sparked the idea, stubbornly following her gut, becoming and working as a therapist, and how, today, it informs the human side of all her work and her role in Entheos.

Feargh and Karen are back for their final few episodes of Re-imaginging Ceremonies before 2024 wraps up. They have invited some gorgeous guests to join them for some upcoming episodes, but today it is just them, taking about trauma.
In this episode, Karen has just returned from a trauma conference in Oxford, the U.K. She shares some of her experiences and take aways, while also discussing the importance of looking after our nervous systems and making sure we are looking after ourselves if we are going to show up to give back to the world around us.
Karen even shares her top tip for settling her nervous system and finding a moment of calm, and we invite you to take part in this simple, well known exercise, so expect about 30 seconds of silence towards the end of the episode.

Karen and Feargh are so delighted to be back to the mic, and in this episode they are coming to you from Karen's house.
Rituals are such an important part of ceremony. There are so many beautiful and meaningful rituals that we bring to the different types of ceremonies that show up in our life. However, rituals can also be extremely important to our daily life and can enhance how we show up in the world.
In this episode, Karen and Feargh sit down and chat about the importance of having your own rituals in your life and how they can enhance your life.

This episode was originally scheduled as our second episode of 2024, but after Karen was a guest on The Tommy Tiernan Show, we pushed this episode back to do a behind the scenes of Karen's experience last week.
In this episode, Karen and Feargh discuss both old and new traditions and rituals that you find in ceremony today. They explore how you might take the old and make it feel new and fresh for your ceremony, or you might lean into the more traditional style of ceremony, or you might embrace a completely new style of ceremony. It all depends on the couple and what resonates with them.

We are leaning into an interruption to our normal broadcasting schedule because if you haven't seen already, our very own Karen Dempsey, Director of Entheos was a guest on The Tommy Tiernan Show.
In this episode, Karen take us through the experience. What it was like to get the call? How she prepared for it? And what it was like on the day of recording? And of course, we take many diversions off-topic.

Karen and Feargh are back for more episodes of Re-imagining Ceremonies, a podcast by Entheos which discusses changing how we see ceremony in the world and also being the change we would like to see in the world.
Last year was an incredibly busy and poignant time for Entheos as an organization, and 2024 looks prosperous and exciting.
Karen and Feargh discuss the plans for the organisation, moving out of City Sanctuary (entheos' home for the last year), the new training programme structure and their excitement being back on the mic together.

Heteronormativity is one of the major social constructs that Entheos wishes to challenge in the ceremony world. We have wanted to explore the specific issues around this topic that show up for couples in the everyday planning of their weddings and on the day of their wedding, but we have wanted to do it with someone who has or is experiencing the heteronormativity within the wedding industry.
We couldn't be happier to be joined by Lisa Nic An Bhreithimh who is getting married next year (YAY!) and is currently planning the wedding. We are so grateful Lisa opened up about her current experience planning the wedding, both the good and the more difficult times.

Enda McGrattan, also known as Drag Superstar Veda Lady (the most beautiful woman in the world in her price range), joins Karen and Feargh to talk about shame, stigma and trauma. They are so generous with their honesty and wisdom as they break down being queer, an artist, an artivist, relationships in all their forms, sex and even sharing some personal stories on their own experience of getting married.
Enda also talks about the upcoming HIV/AIDS monument which will be in Phoenix Park to remember and honour all those we lost to AIDS, and also showing solidarity to those living with HIV today. The two artists who were commissioned to create the monument are Anaisa Franco and Michael R. DiCarl.

After attending a Queer Death café, organised by LGBT.ie at the Dublin LGBTQ+ Pride Hub, Karen and Feargh share their experience of attending the event and what you might expect if you were to attend a death cafe.
Their discussion of the Queer Death cafe leads to chats on grief, end of life choices, fears, thoughts on death and more.
Please be aware that there are discussions of death and grief within this episode and some discussions mention infant death, which may be triggering for some.
We currently record at our city centre venue, City Sanctuary, and on occasion, we get external noises such as an ambulances as background noise.
