What if you’re not broken… just disconnected from your own strength?

In this rich and reflective episode, Norma O’Kelly, Systemic and Transition Coach invites us into a deeper understanding of wholeness, identity, and the quiet power of simply being seen.

We explore the principles behind systemic coaching, where the focus shifts from fixing problems to reconnecting with inner resourcefulness and the places we come from.

This isn’t surface-level coaching, it’s rooted in authenticity, belonging, and the courage to surrender to change.

Key Takeaways:

• You’re not broken — you’re whole, and capable of regeneration.
• Resourcefulness isn’t about learning more; it’s about remembering what’s already within you.
• Family roles and systems shape identity more than we realise.
• “Right sizing” ourselves in family and professional spaces creates healthier dynamics.
• Being useful in coaching is more powerful than just being helpful.
• Authenticity fosters deeper, more impactful coaching relationships.
• Most clients are more ready for deep work than they think.
• Endings aren’t failures, they’re often the doorway to something meaningful.
• Transitions are hard and support, connection, and place matter deeply.
• Feedback from trusted people can reveal strengths we’ve forgotten or overlooked.

In Their Words:

• "I thought I was broken."
• "What's the point?"
• "Let go to let come."

In this uplifting conversation, Marina Branigan shares the story behind her transition from a background in operations to a purpose-led career in coaching. At the heart of it all? Connection.

Marina talks about the power of self-awareness, the importance of authentic relationships, and how community has shaped both her personal and professional life. She opens up about the impact of losing her parents, and how those experiences gave her the courage to take bold steps forward and live in alignment with her values.

We also explore the evolution of her business, the creation of her book club as a space for reflection and learning, and her belief in continuous personal development — even if it means embracing a little mess along the way.

If you're seeking inspiration to reconnect with what matters most and take action in your own life or career, this one’s for you.

• Connection is essential for personal and professional fulfillment
• Self-awareness leads to stronger, more meaningful relationships
• Authenticity attracts the right people and opportunities
• Growth comes from embracing imperfection
• Communities create powerful spaces for support and transformation
• Life experience can inspire courage to change course
• Experimentation leads to self-discovery and purpose
• Living authentically is worth more than security

In Their Words:

• "I want to build something that's true to me."
• "Five years are going to have passed anyway."
