Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 310 - Jayne Ronayne and Sarah Sexton, founders, Oac Snacks
Q: How did your prior experiences shape what you're building with Oak and what brought you together?
Both founders bring complementary strengths—Jayne handles strategy and growth, while Sarah focuses on operations and product quality—enabling them to build a brand that values taste and health without compromising on ethics, as evidenced by their bootstrapped approach and early kitchen origins.
Episode 308 - Ruairi Gough, founder and CEO, Paytient Payments
Q: How does Paytient fit into the broader payments ecosystem compared to giants like Stripe or PayPal?
Paytient specializes in clinically-focused financing within healthcare, enabling practices to offer structured payment plans to patients, while integrating with the banking rails through a regulated partner. This allows clinics to onboard quickly, manage patient payments smoothly, and share revenue with the partner, rather than building full banking compliance in-house.
Episode 312 - Stuart Fitzgerald, CEO Fitzgerald Power
Q: How did Fitzgerald Power come about?
Stuart explains that Fitzgerald Power was formed from a merger of his late father's sole trader practice in Waterford and David Power's similar business, which they subsequently expanded and, years later, reinvested in by purchasing from the founders and bringing in additional partners and investors.
Episode 316 - Brendan Foley, author, Propelling Yourself to the Top
Q: But can I ask you first about the new book? So tell us first of all, its purpose and what you're trying to tell people.
The book aims to distill the core realities of how work operates from the bottom up, focusing on practical steps employees can take to understand realpolitik, develop context, and advance by improving personal brand, visibility, and energy.
Episode 309 - Patrick Murphy, CEO, Codex Office Solutions
Q: What lessons from ERP transformations inform Codex's strategy for inclusive design?
Murphy explains that ERP implementations revealed gaps in processes and people, underscoring the importance of the right team, clear processes, and data-driven decision making. These lessons guide how Codex develops inclusive products and scales its mission.
