The Triple Effect is a podcast that explores the lasting ripple effects of the people and moments that shape who we become. In each episode, I sit down with influential and well-known guests to reflect on the two individuals and one pivotal situation that profoundly impacted their lives.
First, we talk about someone close to them who had a powerful, positive impact. A mentor, a friend, a teacher—someone who saw their potential when others didn’t, stood by their side, or helped them find the courage to grow.
Then, we talk about a negative or challenging situation. Something that may have felt like a setback at the time, but ultimately led to transformation, resilience, and unexpected growth.
Finally, we explore someone they've never met, but who inspires them deeply. A role model, historical figure, or public personality whose influence continues to guide your path toward success, purpose, or inner peace.
The format leads to incredibly rich and unexpected conversations—ones that often take us down surprising paths and offer a rare glimpse into the lives of my guests. It’s a chance for both you, the listener, and me to connect with them on a deeply meaningful level.
I hope you enjoy these conversations as much as I do.

This week on The Triple Effect, I'm joined by Senator Lynn Ruane for a raw and powerful conversation that’s as honest as it is inspiring.
Lynn opens up about her turbulent teenage years, a time marked by rebellion, drug use, car theft, and going missing, often. Yet through it all, there remained a constant: the unconditional support of her parents. She reflects on the safe haven they provided, even when she did everything she could to push them away.
We also discuss her late-in-life ADHD diagnosis and the nine-month period of reflection and grief that followed. Lynn shares how this new understanding reshaped how she sees her past, both as a young girl and in her professional life. A tireless advocate for equality and social justice, Lynn’s story is one of resilience, empathy, and a deep commitment to uplifting those on the margins. It’s a conversation I’ll never forget, and one that I believe is so important in the wider discussion around neurodiversity. I really hope you enjoy this episode. If you do, please consider leaving a 5-star review and subscribing. And if you have guest suggestions, I’d love to hear them — you can reach me on Instagram @BlathnaidT
