Eoin Sheehan joined me for a raw, honest conversation about how food changed everything in his life. From chasing a career in rugby and studying chemical engineering to accidentally building a meal prep business — it all started with trying to lose weight and cooking a few dinners for friends.We dive into the struggles of starting a business while still in college, burnout, panic attacks, and what it’s like to feel completely overwhelmed trying to make it all work. Eoin shares the truth behind the highs and lows — from crying in the kitchen to landing a spot on national TV as a chef.We also talk about body image, validation, confidence, disordered eating, and learning how to have a healthy relationship with food. There’s so much in here — about identity, purpose, presence, pressure, and finding balance again.It’s a conversation about much more than food. It’s about doing something real with your life.00:00 Catch-Up & Creating Content07:18 Early Beginnings13:30 Why Food?15:51 How Losing Weight Made me Attractive20:12 Starting Country Munch27:32 Falling Apart34:22 Starting Country Munch Over38:14 How I started to Look after Myself41:22 Why Food is so important to me47:53 Having the Courage to Try TV51:46 The Importance of Your Brand59:59 The Benefits of Living a Simple Life01:06:16 Quick Fire Question Round
