CAITLIN MCBRIDE – THE DAY THAT CHANGED MY LIFE

We all have many  life changing moments in our lives but have you ever stopped to think about the one day that made that has had a big impact on your life? Author Caitlin McBride decided to ask that question of some of Ireland’s most prominent women and has turned their stories into an inspirational book, The Day That Changed My Life.

31 stories

Today, Caitlin joined Sarina on Plan B to talk about why she wanted to write the book. Caitlin shared that it was difficult to narrow it down to just 31 stories but she did try to feature women from as many different fields as possible.

Over the last few days, I've taken some time to just sit back and appreciate the fact that this book, of which I am so proud, is finally here. I've put blood, sweat, tears (and nearly two stone) into making this dream a reality. In our world, the loudest voices are heard the most, but more often than not, they tend not to go much deeper than surface level. So, I thought, however small a change I could make, I would - and what's deeper than speaking to incredible women about a moment that changed the entire course of their lives? To all of the women who appeared, many of whom were strangers before, thank you for your time and generosity and speaking with a candour I can only hope to one day possess. Let's hope this book does the good we so very want it to. I'm a little overwhelmed with all the support and taking stock of everyone's unwavering kindness. I'll be getting back to everyone over the next day. For now, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU❤️
