Self-care Sundays: Set realistic goals and take control with the inspirational Denise Kenny

As we kick off IMAGE Self-care Sundays, our eight-week wellness series in partnership with Yoplait, meet the first of our experts who can help transform your lifestyle.

A shock diagnosis set newlywed Denise Kenny and her husband Ciaran on a totally different life path. Just weeks after their honeymoon, Ciaran was diagnosed with leukaemia.

Thanks to expert medical advice and a treatment plan, Ciaran was able to avail of life-saving treatment. But his recovery had only begun in hospital and Denise knew a positive mental attitude was going to be key in getting them through.

By utilising social media, Instagram especially, Denise gained thousands of followers by sharing mental health advice and being refreshingly honest about her good days and bad days.

The first of our Self-care Sundays will focus on mental health, personal development, journaling and self empowerment.

As well as making sure Ciaran’s health was prioritised, Denise also began to live life to the fullest, appreciating the small things, controlling and focusing on what they could and practicing gratitude.

She founded The Head Plan, a wellness brand that will keep you inspired, motivated, focused and driven to get to where you truly belong.
