🎤 @Independent_ie interviewed me today on my 'working life'.

It traces the ups and downs of my career as Irish Minister, CEO of @GOAL_Global, head of @iiea and now Chair of @EP_Development.

I discuss my family, from today and past. Our dog, Stella 🐕. My morning routine, my yoga routine. Airport pains and how I use e-scooters for getting around #Brussels 🛵.

Both the @FBI and @KeelinShanley get a mention 😆 👋
