Story of Loss, Addiction, and Opening your Heart to a Child in Need

In this powerful episode of We Could Talk for Ireland, Aisling reflects on the quiet courage it takes to be there for others during life’s hardest moments. From the heartbreak of sudden loss to the silent struggles happening behind closed doors, she shares how these experiences have shaped her outlook—and led her to open her home to a young person who needed nothing more than safety, kindness, and a warm hug. This is a gentle but gripping conversation about empathy, chosen family, and how love often shows up in the simplest, most human ways.
