Last year, I went through many different life changes. I needed to take a pause and examine how I was feeling in the inside to better show up for the ones who need me to be my best version of myself.

And this week, we're joined by...

It's Katie Taylor. Me, Katie Taylor.

Calvin O'Brien (2:35)

Do you know what, Katie?

Katie Taylor (2:35)

You're moving me into the old podcast, going, oh, hang the clothes up and put them in the podcast. I don't know about that, guys. These are much better talkers than I am, so.

Terence Power (2:44)

Katie, look, it's an absolute honor to be sitting here with you.

Katie Taylor (2:46)

Likewise.

Terence Power (2:47)

We've been invited on to a bus while traveling around Ireland. I mean, the Cameraman is falling all over the airport.

Katie Taylor (2:53)

The party bus.

Terence Power (2:54)

Yeah, it's an honor to be here. The first question I want to ask you, Katie, is Croke Park has just been announced. I know you're not going to be able to put in the awards, but what are you feeling?

Katie Taylor (3:04)

Oh, it's just been a whirlwind of a few days, the last few days since it has been announced. And I got the phone call from Brian a few days ago, my manager, and he said, all the contracts are signed, it's a done deal. I said, I can't believe this, Brian. We actually got it over the line. And it's only because of Brian and Eddie and Peter Aiken, all these people involved, that there's been absolute tenacious over the last few months at actually making this happen. This is basically in a possibility a few months ago. And here we are, I'm actually ending my career at Croke Park, our most iconic arena.

It's beyond my wildest dreams, it really is. And so it's insane.

Terence Power (3:38)

It's amazing. It's been spoken about now for a couple of years, and we were all wondering, will they ever get it over the line? You know what I mean? Now what's happening? Have you been thinking?

Katie Taylor (3:46)

I've been saying just before, it was Ireland's worst kind of secret for the last few weeks.

Calvin O'Brien (3:51)

Everyone knew about it.

Terence Power (3:52)

Everyone was catching wind.

Katie Taylor (3:54)

Yeah, exactly.

Terence Power (3:55)

Or have you had a vision ahead of what it might be like to walk out in Croke Park?
