Ready To Be Real: A Brigit Gathering with Síle Seoige

Ready To Be Real: A Brigit Gathering with Síle Seoige

Abbey Presbyterian Church, Saturday 31st January

Join Síle Seoige for a live Ready to Be Real podcast at Brigit: Dublin City Celebrating Women, presented in partnership with Acast.

Rooted in the spirit of Brigit – goddess of spring, renewal and creativity – this intimate afternoon gathering offers space for reflection, openness and connection.

In conversation with special guest – poet, activist, and healer Laura Murphy, Síle will guide a heart-led conversation shaped by this season of awakening and possibility.

Together, you’ll explore themes of change, inner fire, feminine wisdom and what it means to honour ourselves and one another at this turning point of the year, closing with a grounding practice to gently settle and integrate the experience.

Laura Murphy is poet, activist, and healer working in the ancient Irish tradition of Imbas Forosnai – a state of visionary inspiration associated with Brigid, through which poets draw wisdom into the body, and speak truth to power.

She featured in RTÉ's documentary Finding Brigid and campaigned successfully to make Brigid’s Day a national holiday.

Presented by Brigit 2026: Dublin City Celebrating Women in partnership with Acast.

Rooted in stories of working-class Dublin and shaped by her upbringing in Sheriff Street, her club-pop songs balance emotional clarity with sharp, understated production. Set within the intimate surroundings of the Presbyterian Church, this show offers a focused live moment to mark Brigit: Dublin City Ce
