FMQ 525 They Don’t Know I’m Suffering

They Don’t Know I’m Suffering

We talk a lot about vulnerability these days — maybe too much, and often in the wrong way.

In this Five Minute Quickie, I challenge the idea that vulnerability means oversharing or spilling everything too soon. Because for most people who are suffering — anxiety, overwhelm, feeling broken, or just “not quite right” — the real issue is this:

People don’t know what’s going on inside.

FMQ 521 Come And Play For A Change

In this slightly longer Five-Minute Quickie, I’m inviting you to do something different… to come and play. Play with ideas, play with possibilities, and play with the truth about those heavy beliefs we sometimes carry like “I’ve got no one.”

In this FMQ, we explore:

How “I’ve got no one” is a belief, not the truth

Why every belief — even identity-level stuff — can be changed

Why it often feels like our issues only happen to us

Why working with compassion (not empathy) creates real change

How every issue is just a behaviour — and behaviours can change

How these seeds we explore now lead directly into the deeper work in the following longer episode

In this slightly-longer FMQ, we’re taking a gentle but powerful step toward real change. No more talking about the issue. No more cycling through the same thoughts. This episode is all about shifting your focus to what actually creates transformation — how you want to feel.

So many of us get stuck talking, thinking, analysing… and nothing changes. Why?
Because talking doesn’t always touch the unconscious mind — the place where these patterns were created in the first place.

In this FMQ, I share:
