Mairead Ronan: The Moments that Made Me

Listen to The Moments That Made Me, the Weekend Podcast from the Irish Examiner in association with Green & Blacks, where we ask well-known people not where they are now - but rather, how they got there. We’ll be asking people to take a walk through their lives and pick the key points - good or bad, personal or professional - that shaped their lives. The moments that made them. Hosted on Acast.
