What does it take to leave everything behind and build a life on your own terms?
In this episode, we sit down with Trish — a Paisley girl turned award-winning film editor based in New York — for one of the most raw and honest conversations we've had on the podcast.
Growing up the youngest of five in a big Catholic family, Trish never felt like she fitted the mould. She struggled academically, clashed with her dad, and at 18 faced a decision that would shape the rest of her life. A decision she kept secret from almost everyone she knew.
What followed was years of chasing — across countries, industries, and versions of herself — driven by something she couldn't quite name at the time. From a runner's job in Soho to editing rooms in Italy, from a fresh start in post-9/11 New York to a Super Bowl deadline at 2am during a pandemic, Trish has lived a lot of life. She talks candidly about what it means to make it as a woman in a male-dominated industry, the moment a health scare forced her to reassess everything, and how she eventually stopped white-knuckling her career — and started trusting the process instead.
She also shares an update on a chapter of her life she thought might stay closed forever. And it's a good one. If you've ever felt like you were running towards something without knowing exactly what — this episode is for you.
