  • I feel ashamed of having been humiliated, spooked, ghosted and having been betrayed by someone I trusted. My heart and soul have been stepped on.

    New to your work and loving it! Thank you for this. I really loved and appreciated your authenticity. Much, if not all really resonated. I'm fundamentally very positive and optimistic BUT have an almost daily battle with my inner critic...fortunately I win! Lots of people need to hear this message. Keep being real Owen. We love real! ✨😉
  • I've been struggling for years. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR VIDEO. ❤

    Learning that I can change the story I tell myself a few years ago, led me to recover from my mental health conditions and turn my life around, so it's very true and wise advice! Thank you for sharing your story. ❤
  • I’m very very depressed, I have chronic insomnia and I’m scared. Age 49 and I feel terrified. Tried different therapists but if only I could sleep. Anxious
  • Glad I found your channel. I can relate with what you said. 👍

    I made a foolish mistake by listening to others at work about retirement. I stupidly did it,... and lost it. I couldn't believe i quit the job i loved, because i was convinced to retire. I hate my life now. Its destroyed me. I have insomnia, anxiety and severe depression. I just hate everything now. .. i can't do anything, go anywhere. I don't like existing... and see no pleasure in anything at all. I can't believe this happened to me..
  • Amen...🙏.., Yeah, that's the way the cookie crumbles..., Thanks for the video, it motivated me to get back in the saddle to continue the battle. Do have a fantastic day..
