Episode Synopsis
"I saw people struggling. I knew we could do better. So we did."
When Neil Costello couldn’t find the right support for his loved ones, he didn’t just complain, he built the solution.
On this episode of AIBF Business Talk, we dive into the powerful story behind Better Care, Ireland’s leading private mental health service. What started as one man’s mission during COVID is now a nationwide network offering everything from counselling and psychotherapy to ADHD assessments and psychiatry - all under one umbrella.

The “enough is enough” moment that sparked Better Care
The growing pains of scaling care without compromising quality
The reality of being a founder and a therapist
Why doing it all yourself slows everything down
The mindset shift that helped Neil move from burnout to breakthrough
💬 It’s raw, real, and incredibly relevant - especially for founders juggling purpose, pressure, and people.
🏆 A proud Business All-Star, Neil also reflects on the meaning of AIBF accreditation and the power of peer recognition.
