  • Fintan Cooney had a successful career in advertising, spending 25 years in the industry and rising to a senior level. However, his interest in the funeral undertaking business, which his great great grandfather started in Dublin, never waned. He had even considered opening a funeral home in Mullingar, but the opportunity slipped away when someone else beat him to it. As Fintan's advertising career progressed, he started to question if it was truly what he wanted to do for the rest of his life, which led him to seriously consider making a career change.

  • Tomás O'Leary shares his journey starting in the travel industry to becoming a successful entrepreneur. O'Leary, who worked for IBM in the past, talks about how he became an agony aunt for a retail magazine in Ireland, which eventually led to software companies contacting him and his team for business deals.


    O'Leary credits his success to his constant questioning and skepticism, which he believes sets him apart from experts who can't see beyond their own industry jargon. When asked about his decision to start his own business, he shared that it was a chance opportunity that came his way. He got involved in a business that was going to be partnered by IBM, and from there, he learned to sell a wider range of IBM products.

  • A Pivotal Moment is a podcast about ordinary people who made extraordinary decisions. Having reached a turning point in their lives, businesses, or careers, each of my guests made a dramatic change. I'll be asking them how this came about, the sacrifices they made to make a change, and the impact it had on their lives, the lives of their families, organisations and themselves. Throughout the series we will hear powerful stories of those nagging feelings of unease, of frustration, that persistent inner voice, saying, “I need to do something else.”
