I’m Adam Walker a Biometrics consultant, and this is the Pharma Prescribed Podcast—where leaders, innovators, and hidden voices in healthcare open up. No soundbites. No spin. Just raw insight—one prescription at a time.

In an industry driven by data, protocols, and pressure, we rarely pause to ask the human questions: What drives us? What breaks us? And what truths live behind the titles we wear?

Today’s guest is Dermot Whelan, one of Ireland’s most recognisable broadcasters and a leading voice in accessible, science‑informed mindfulness.

A multi‑award‑winning radio and TV presenter, bestselling author, comedian and certified Masters of Wisdom and Meditation Teacher, he has helped thousands rethink stress and emotional wellbeing through his book Mind Full, his nationwide tours and his chart‑topping podcast.

I first met Dermot at a conference in Prague in early 2025 when in the throes of grief, and the impact was immediate. In a room full of industry noise, he brought something rare: grounded clarity, humour and a human‑centred approach to behaviour change that cut straight through. That conversation and our connection following a guided meditation shaped how I think about resilience and vulnerability in corporate settings.

Today, Dermot works globally with organisations and individuals, translating complex psychological concepts into practical, relatable habits—an ethos that aligns powerfully with the mission of Pharma Prescribed.
