On this journey Paddy has experienced everything from acquiring equity and releasing equity to a multinational partner\, to setting up a wellness business back in Ireland\, and believes you need to take your opportunities. Outside of work Paddy is a proud husband and a father of two. His passions are keeping fit\, being in nature\, exploring different areas of self-development both physically and mentally.
