Tommy Tiernan Show fans all saying same thing about 'powerful' female guests

Viewers of the Tommy Tiernan Show were in awe of the remarkable stories of two very "powerful" female guests.

After a touching interview with singer Damien Dempsey about his sensitive side, Tommy welcomed global, diversity, equity and inclusion leader, Sheree Atcheso.

She spoke about her adoption from a poverty stricken Sri Lankan mother, detailing how after growing up in Tyrone, she made the journey back to reconnect with family.

The tech author told everyone about the importance of having awareness outside your own bubble and her story was about "succeeding out of spite" she said after.

One viewer wrote: "Sheree Atcheson's energy is intoxicating. I could listen to her all night."

Another commended the researchers on the show saying they deserve a shout out for finding people "who are below the radar for many of us."

"Very impressive and super articulate woman Sheree Atcheson," another said.

After Sheree, Tommy welcomed his third guest of the night, life coach Alana Kirk who told a powerful story about how she turned her life around and why people look to her for advice.

She detailed how she spent five years raising her small children, while also spoon feeding her mother after she suffered a massive stroke.

"Well done, Alana. That really was a great chat," one viewer said, while another commented: "Brilliant ‘ I want to take a man’s shirt off not iron it’ never a truer word said."

One final viewer said on Twitter: "I reckon she was born to life coach. It’s not easy to turn painful and hurtful moments into learning experiences, but she’s done it, and she’s sharing that learning and outlook. Fair play."
