“Am I alone in thinking like this?”
Every client asks me the same question…
From the outside, they appear to have it all figured out. But behind the scenes, they’re wrestling:
👉 The relentless pressure to keep going, no matter what.
👉 The crushing weight of expectation and responsibility.
👉 The constant fear of dropping the ball and letting others down.
👉 The ‘you’re not good enough’ voice.
👉 The inability to switch off.
I understand because I used to fight the same battle.
Chasing ‘perfectionism’.
Trying to please everyone and do it all.
Unable to switch off.
No boundaries. No self-care.
Exhausted. Isolated. Full of shame.
When I finally mustered up the courage to speak to someone, I was worried too that I might be ‘the only one’.
And I nearly didn’t share my story.
I nearly didn’t get the support I needed out of fear.
Why is it most of us feel like this then?
👉 Because shame thrives in silence.
👉 Because, as men, we’ve been conditioned to perform, suppress and provide – at all costs.
👉 Because, as a society, we still don’t normalise these conversations enough.
💡So, if you’re sitting there wondering:
“Am I alone in thinking this way ?”
Please know..
You’re not.
You're really, really not.
I get it.
My clients get it.
Other people get it.
Every man (and any other human being) deserves a space to be fully seen, heard and supported.
You don't need to do this alone.
There is another way.
I am someone who gets it, and has the tools to help you take back control.
