Professor Katriona O'Sullivan

so being human there you go have you ever considered that before katrina um what it is to be human yeah yeah especially when i make mistakes i always think i'm just a human at the end of the day i'm not a robot so i do i do actually contemplate being a human irregularly and was that part of the reason you did psychology

I think I did psychology.

So I was lucky that I had an introduction to psychology course.

And what I learned in that was psychology was about asking questions.

So I didn't think that psychology was going to give me the answer to who I was or who they were, my parents particularly.

But I liked that it was like really heady and questioning.

So that introduction gave me the idea, oh, this is a science and it's going to give me like a good, really, I can ask loads of questions.

So that's why I did psychology.

I remember my granny and granddad from Ireland coming to visit.

So I lived in Coventry and there was always a panic in the house when they were coming to visit because my dad was trying to hide his addiction.

But I actually remember them being here and they brought me a dress.

And so I remember being in the back garden with this Czech dress that they bought.

And my brothers, they brought them two tracksuits.

And I just remember playing in my dress.

We had a swing kind of out the back.

of our back garden.

And I just have this memory of being dressed really lovely.

And my brothers, they had like a blue stripe, white stripe tracksuit and a red, white stripe tracksuit.

And that's kind of like my earliest memory of myself.

So it was a happy memory.
