Every day I receive messages from listeners of The Overwhelmed Brain and Love and Abuse. This page is dedicated to them. Plus, I read it whenever I need a boost! Thank you all.
I only recently started listening to your podcasts….bought the overwhelmed brain book… I have sought help and counsel from priests, counselors, Drs and even quit drinking and joined AA… Most of that help cost $$. I feel more validated and hopeful just by listening to the so far 20 or so podcasts of yours, than I ever did with counseling or self-help.
You are incredible and you absolutely nailed it with seeing my situation for what it is… I work with some of the most well-renowned Psychiatrists and therapists… and have never to this day related to someone as much as I do with you… I can honestly say you have a gift… thank you for helping so many of us and changing so many lives for the better… I’m not sure how you ended up doing what you do but I am very grateful and can tell you that you’re 100% in the right job.
This is fantastic!! You put so much effort into this. I really appreciate that. Hope there will be more people in the future listening to your words 🙂 I enjoyed every minute of this. I like especially that you went to the NoMind state and then back to working on a healthy ego. There are many misconceptions about all of this and even spiritual teachers talking for 20- 30 years about this don’t know basic stuff like the difference between mind(intellect) and ego. So thank you for clearing some things up 🙂
Your show had been an inspiration for myself, my daughters, and sisters. I do believe with applying your methods to my everyday life, seeing the changes in me had sparked an interest in this change. I am new to your show, about a month now but you spoke my language and I finally made connections I never understood. Now, I am still working on me, and there is a lot more then I realized… Thank you for the knowledge to look deeper, recognize, recover and strive for progression.
I tuned into your podcast where you addressed my email and I don’t even know how to express my gratitude for what you have done for me and what it means to me. When i send you the email it was purely out of desperation and never thought it will actually reach you. Thank you so much for just listening, I for once felt like somebody actually cared. I honestly couldn’t believe it 🙂 it felt so good. So, I just wanna say thank you man, for your support and kindness. Thank you so much for what you’ve done for me and all the other people who come to you for support and guidance. Thanks for being such a great mentor _ God bless you and the work you do… I’ve drawn so much positive energy from just listening to your podcast and I have a funny feeling that it might’ve changed my life (or the very least my perspective of how I see or look at life).
Love your show – your intuition is spot on and always resonates with me.
I don’t know how to thank you……You’ve truly transformed my thinking and have given me perspective on a lot of things. You are truly God send… It was the start of my journey with your podcasts and MEAN workbook. I connected the dots… Paul I resonate with almost all the pointers and yet I missed all the red flags. I heard of it and never saw myself as a victim and only came face to face with the terminologies you used in your book such as triangulation, stonewalling, gaslighting, labelling, silent treatment, cold shoulder, tracking my every move, withholding financial and sexual pleasure… I know it’s a long way for my recovery but I’m glad it’s happening now. I truly can’t wait to get acquainted with ME. Not sure who or what I am but am happy to embark on this journey of self-discovery. Thanks Paul
Hi Paul! This is short and sweet but I wanted to tell you that every single time at the end of your show when you say “you are amazing”, I cry… full tears every time!! It’s always happy tears but every time I listen to your show I feel one step closer to finding full inner peace. So thank you for everything that you do. I appreciate you!!!
“I just wanted to say thank you. I am listening to your episode “I Can’t Get You Out of My Head but I Need To“. This was literally exactly what I needed to hear right now. I have spent four months obsessing about my ex, who just completely disappeared on me without a word and blocked me… I’ve been waiting for him to come back and have been just like the woman in the email from the show – thinking he was my perfect man, wanting him back so badly, but having a HUGE list of abuses I suffered from him. Nothing I’ve done has hit me quite the way this did. So thank you.
I’ve just purchased the M.E.A.N workbook… I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you do to help people in these situations. There must be an enormous number of couples out there who are in abusive relationships who may not even realise it because of their upbringing or other circumstances. I never realised that what I was doing in my relationship constituted emotional abuse, or that my partner was being manipulative/abusive too, and I wouldn’t have started to work on my issues had it not been for your podcast. You have enabled myself and thousands of others to have a happier future and I’m eternally grateful!
Hi, just wanted to thank you for that marvelous piece on facing fears and let you know that thanks to your encouraging and empowering shows I managed to get my Master’s degree on top of everyone in my college. A success that was huge for me because I was the oldest among the students and it healed so many old wounds… you should know you’re literally helping people become their better versions. So thx a zil.
“Your show continues to help me reflect, re-evaluate and resolve in healthier ways and for that I am incredibly grateful. I appreciate the way in which you talk through things, how approachable and thought-provoking you present different topics and how you do so without judgement. I’ve listened to Love and Abuse as well and now that I’m a patron, am very much looking forward to all the other materials you make available. Loving all that you’re putting out there in the world to help a fellow human being. A million thanks for helping me on my journey!”
“Not a question, just a thank you. I stumbled upon your episode about depression and it was what “clicked” and gave me the strength to pull myself back up after 4 years of being in the dark, thinking I was alone. Now I’m going through and listening to as many as I can, and learning that I’m not alone, and that I CAN be happy, and I CAN change the way I think, and I don’t have to be miserable and the victim anymore. You saved my life, I cannot thank you enough.”
I just listened to “how the emotional abuser takes your empowerment too.” Thank you SO much. I really needed to hear it today. I’ve been listening to you since I left a lifetime marriage… I put up with far too much for far too long. I swept it under the rug, excused it, hoped it would get better…on and on… It’s so, so hard…being truly loved and truly abused by the one person who is supposed to be your life partner. Thank you for your podcasts. They have been a lifeline to me on countless nights. God bless you!
…you helped me develop a minimalist mindset…with your car episode…you helped me learn and grow so much…I can’t even believe where I am now…you are a huge part of my transformation…
Wow! I just discovered your podcast and I want to say, your episode on guilt (episode 329 how to avoid destroying yourself with guilt) helped my fiancé and I so much… It has so many good points in it. My fiancé said he’s even going to listen to it again. Thank you so much.
“When I found your podcast TOB, it was like someone finally had a name for what was happening to me. The Love and Abuse podcast, was icing on the cake. It was the antidote to the gaslighting and I could finally see through the nonsensical way I was living. It took me 3 years, and a few false starts, but I finally left and for the first time in a long time, I feel hopeful about my future… thanks for helping me to take my life back.”
“I am so happy that I listened to my inner voice and had a coaching call with you! You provided a lot of clarity, validation, and direction for me which is what I’ve been seeking… I will continue to listen to your soothing voice in your podcast and take care of myself.”
“…through talk therapy and your podcast I’m 100% back to normal. It’s amazing really how great you are. Truly. The world needs more of you.“
“Once I discovered your podcasts, my life has started to take a shift for the better. I share them with everyone I know that I think could benefit from them (with their permission of course) and they too really dig! Thank you so much Paul! You’re the Iron Man of Shrinks!!!”
“I’m impressed with how you are able to articulate and explain some feelings and observations that I’ve had for years along the lines of subtle (sometimes not so subtle) emotional/verbal abuse and disrespect/manipulation. You ‘get’ that this sometimes really only shows up in the home so very few out there would know. Can I just say again how much I look forward to learning from you :-)”
“You have a vast variety of topics that so many can relate to. Not to mention you trigger minds to think outside of the box and look at different ways of thinking. That makes for an interesting and successful podcast. Kudos to you!”
It was awesome talking to you thank you for all the powerful words you have said in your podcast I listen to them over a lot and use things that you say to help me in my struggles with family. Listening to you has helped me to be a stronger person, and I also have my faith to keep me strong “
“I just wanted to let you know I am very grateful for everything you have been sharing in your podcast, not only your knowledge, but also your very own personal experience, and giving me the hope that I, too, can become the very best version of myself by simply connecting with what is going on inside… You were a lighthouse in some tough moments and showed that there is a way out… Thanks for doing what you know the best. It really makes a change and helps and I think you should know that.“
“I must tell you I have never heard someone speak and have it make so much sense. Every single point you make is right on. Thank you so much for everything you are doing 😊”
“Your podcast… was so moving. So motivating. I have spoken my mind, made my thoughts clear to that maniacal dictator and I’m close to getting a new job that I will love and the culture is a fit. Anyway, I quit the bad job and am on the path to emotional recovery… I feel INCREDIBLE and so light. You literally have / are saving me. You’re amazing.”
“Wow! That was a powerful newsletter that resonated with me very deeply. Thank you. I would like to say I can tell you always put a lot of thought into what you say and write… It’s great that you are willing to share this very important knowledge with us. I really don’t have many resources to get quality information that is shared freely and makes sense on a very deep level… there’s almost always a message that goes to my core and speaks to me… You are amazing.”
“You have helped me navigate through some seriously dangerous territory. Thank you for that.”
“Paul, i have Been listening to your podcasts and I can’t thank you enough for your work and teachings on Love and abuse and The Overwhelmed Brain. I wish I had discovered this a long time ago as I reached rock bottom and almost feeling suicidal last year and finally decided to leave my husband.”
“Your podcast has changed my life! Your podcast is the only podcast (of hundreds I have tried) that I can relate to. I get everything you say, and it provides me with clear steps to grow, and most importantly, reduce stress, anxiety and depression. I have stopped taking all medication since listening to your podcast. So Thank you…. I am sharing your podcast with everyone I know.”
“I’m in a completely different place; better than I ever have been! And not without your assistance. You’re doing important work… the counselor could not believe the changes she was seeing in me. She was asking me what the heck I had done to move so far from where I had been! I would consider myself a “success story” for sure. Really, thank you for your work and assistance. It’s making a difference.”
“I was moved to tears by what you said at the end. I’ve never been told I was amazing, not by others and certainly not by myself. It was a transformational 5 seconds; furthermore, you planted the seed of self-love that I’ve never allowed to take root and grow on my own… I cannot thank you enough. You change lives. You’ve changed mine. “
“Thank you so much for helping me to understand my own anxiety through your podcast and emails. During my darkest times, your episode on anxiety really truly helped me to keep going. Thank you just so much for doing what you do. I ALWAYS look forward to your new episodes and go back to listen to old episodes! Lots of love from Canada :)”
“I’ve been following you over a year now, and I must say that this new podcast channel [Love and Abuse] has helped me a LOT to go through my recent breakup! I’ve learned a lot to become a better person, to stand up for myself, and to believe that there is still hope to love and to be loved… I’ve been feeling much better being away from all the negativity, toxic interactions, dramas, and lies…. You may not have an idea of the importance you’ve played in so many people’s lives and their well being, Paul! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!”
“I found the podcast and it has been more helpful to me than in office therapy with psychologists. Thank you!”
“I recommend your podcast to many people. I like that you don’t use psychobabble etc. and share your personal experience and the insights you have gained there. We only have our experience that we can speak authentically about… I think your real-ness is a gift… You are a good model of sharing and reflecting and inviting others into their own experience. “
“Your podcasts have changed my life! You are so compassionate with how you present… you were there as a reference and guide when professionals just minimised the abuse.”
“It’s been a little while. I just really want to thank you for all of your help and support… Your podcast is incredibly important. By telling your story listeners are able to connect with you with nothing required of them. We are able to get to know you, experience your vulnerabilities, develop a sense of trust before we reach out and expose our dark side. Your podcast is such a powerful and accessible tool. In some ways it is also a stepping stone to help people get the help they need. The way you encourage your listeners to seek out the happiness they deserve is empowering people to live their best lives. From every cell in my body, Thank you.”
“I have been to different counselors over the years and it never seems to help. I think I have learned more in a weeks worth of podcasts than I have in the past 3 years of counseling appointments. My best friend in Oregon actually recommended your podcasts and I’m so glad she did. Thank you for all you do and continue to do”
“Just wanted to drop in and thank you for taking the time to do your podcasts. I recently got into them while dealing with depression and trying to get myself to finally get out of a toxic relationship. I still haven’t removed myself entirely but your podcast has gotten me closer then i ever could have gotten on my own. Keep up the amazing work! “
“I listened to your first podcast, The Slight Edge, and it changed my life. Nothing else had the same impact—not the Slight Edge book, or any other Jeff Olson interview.”
“OMG – this is the most useful podcast I have ever heard in my entire life! Just wanted to express my thanks.”
“I just wanted to say thank you for responding and answering my question in one of the Patron episodes! You have no idea how much it has helped me. Words cannot express how grateful I am for the advice and encouragement you gave me! “
“I think it’s very brave every time you share one of your personal stories with all of us out here listening (or reading). I know it takes a lot of guts to put yourself out there like you do. You make a huge difference and your stories help me a lot!… Thank you for all you do. You are amazing!!!”
“Loved your last podcast (When your partner changes their mind…). Paul’s approach was awesome (as usual), admire how you can look at the problem from so many different angles and then give excellent advice on each perspective. Then having Asha cap off the program with her detailed pin point perspective was amazing. As Paul pointed out having a parent with experience gives an honest view. Her’s was filled with heart and wisdom. So much great advice presented in a friendly, clear, no nonsense way! It really helped me to think differently about retirement issues my husband and I are having… your advice rang true and was extremely helpful. Thank you so much”
“Thank you Paul your help was very instrumental to my freedom. I left [my ex narcissist sociopath] and have maintained no /very minimal contact and am working hard at rebuilding my boundaries and self . Thank you again. “
“I just wanted to write this email to say how grateful I am of you, your work and your podcast on my self-worth and self value. You have saved me from going into a downward spiral on myself. Thank you so much!”
“Finding you to be my coach is one of those lucky things that I’ll forever be grateful to the universe for.”
“every morning, when I go to work, you are with me 🙂 I’m currently going through some hard life questions, who am I really..and your podcast shakes me to my core. you have gone through that and that really helps me. Although you are on the other side of the world… you will never know how much you helped me. thank you.”
“You always have such amazing insights Paul. I learn something from you each time I listen to a podcast or read an email like this. You can help the average person makes sense of nonsensical behaviour and hopefully create relationships where honesty, integrity and authenticity show up more regularly.”
“I appreciate you so much and just cannot get enough of the podcast. I have been in therapy for the last few months, but nothing has really helped me grow and evolve like your podcast. You are one of my favorite people on the planet, and I cannot express my appreciation enough! I tell everyone about you and suggest the podcast whenever I get a chance. You are AMAZING Paul!”
“…I would like to say thank you for your wonderful show!.. I started therapy also coupled with listening to your pod cast every day all day at work instead of music. I feel like the therapy was a great start, but your show has given me a real boost to begin healing from things that I didn’t even know I was hurting from. I believe the things I found out about myself (from childhood) are one if not the main contributors to why almost everyone of my relationships have failed. Thanks to you I am starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel! Again thank you so much for being you and being here!”
“I am currently listening to your podcast about accepting insecurities… my insecurity about my skin condition has taken over a huge part of my life… I have not worn a tank top since the 7th grade. Because of this podcast and allowing myself to accept my skin and my body, I feel so freed knowing that the choice is now on other people… my friends asked me to go on a beach trip with them and I originally said no due to my insecurities, but thanks to you and this podcast, I just booked my flight! Thank you so much for your words and sharing your story, it has changed a huge part of my life!”
“…I felt so guilty about everything! I felt guilty for wanting to do things I liked to do, for spending time alone (so I never did), for wanting my family in my life, for wanting to leave the marriage, for how she would feel if I did leave, for breaking up our family if I decided to leave, etc…. But today I feel empowered to do what I want to do for myself and for my kids. If I didn’t start listening to your podcast and start looking at some of these issues on a deeper level I can’t say I’d be where I am today!”
Thank you so much for the incredible work you do. I think I would be in a psychiatric hospital or in jail without your program. As soon as I can I will help the program with $$$$ because you had gave so much emotional piece, I am still working on it, and you had saved some many people I just wanted to slap them on kicked them in the face 🙂 Keep the good work you are AMAZING.”
“I absolutely love your podcasts!! They have helped me walk away from a toxic relationship. You are doing a great service!!”
“I am forever grateful for your podcast, wisdom, and life experiences… you have been the impetus for my healing and recovery from a psychopath. It has been a very long road to recovery, but I have been grounded in The Overwhelmed Brain book and podcast. Rest assured, your passion and personal growth are not in vain. You are blessed to help others who are broken and discouraged. And you are successful beyond your knowledge.”
“…after listening to your podcast (episode 229), it was almost like a lightbulb lit up in my head and it was time for me to face my own depression and understand the “whys” in order to put things into perspective and let go. I was also astonished with how well you hit the points and made me realized so much! Your podcasts are filled with so much wisdom, insightful thinking, and empowerment… Thank you so much again! I was so thrilled to listen in, it was almost like you were directly speaking to me. I cannot believe how 20 mins of you speaking to me was the beginning of my learning and healing. And for that I am truly grateful! I cannot wait to read your books and continue to listen to your weekly podcasts.”
“I have recently started listening to this podcast and it is so different to anything I have listened to before. I honestly feel enlightened, inspired and like a weight has been lifted. “
“…there’s so much I could tell you about my journey and you were a huge part of it for helping me see my part in what was going on around me and how everything can affect me in different ways. I decided to take accountability for my own actions in my life and since that moment my life has completely changed. Your advice on my question was absolutely what I needed to hear! It was almost spot on with all that I have learned the last 4 months. My husband and I have spent the last week talking about things we always should have talked about but with less emotion and more listening and understanding… I encourage everyone to check your podcast and books as I know you are able to help more people than you can even imagine!”
“You have described in amazing detail a codependent relationship I am involved in and I guarantee this is going to change my life drastically for the better thank you, thank you, thank you.”
“You and your podcast have been the highlight of my life since I started listening to you a year ago!… I tell everyone I know about you and your podcast and look forward every week for your episodes.”
“Thank you for stonewalling episode. I want to do way more with you and support you. So much of what you talk about I relate too… I HAVE learned to manipulate and put my feelings aside to survive this. figured it out… I’ll keep listening because it helps me think on my own and it’s great to know I’m not alone. I appreciate you. take care”
“I appreciate the work you generously share with the world. You are doing a great healing work.”
“I’ve been reading through the cheating posts and I just want to contact you and say thank you for being real and honest… You have helped me more than you will ever know. Thank you.”
“I wanted you to know that I have learned soooo much from your podcasts!!! I expect the new episodes every Sunday and replay the “old” ones on my phone too. You have made a great and positive impact in my life and i have no words to thank you for opening a new window in my life horizon: I enjoy your insight and love your humour and honesty deeply.”
“The episodes of emotional manipulation and abuse blew my damn mind!! nail on the head- totally identified what has been going on in this marriage… Now i am learning boundaries-and learning to say what i mean and mean what i say! And I say thank you for being – I am so thankful for discovering all this, your book lays it all out- you cant not get it!! then you have to do something about it! Scared yes-Excited Yes. “
“…your show has made a tremendous impact on me and my understanding of the mind”
“Loved the overwhelmed brain book, it helped with my healing from abusive parents/exes.”
“I appreciate you and what you are doing more than you will ever know… I have only been listening to your podcast for a few months after I searched for personal growth shows on iTunes. After listening to a couple of recent ones to see if I liked you and your show, I went back to the beginning to listen to every single episode I could find.”
“YOU ARE AMAZING!! I love your podcast more than you could ever know. Thank you for being alive, Paul, and sharing your knowledge and experiences.”
“I’ve learned more from your shows than I have through therapy! And every show, no mater the topic is always relevant somehow”
“I am so glad I stumbled onto your podcasts one day last year about this time. You have really changed my life for the better”
“Thanks for addressing my message on your podcast! I did listen to it. I found it extremely helpful, it gave me a lot of things to think about, and I think the first step I need to take is to set some boundaries to honour myself, which is something I have listened to you say over and over in your podcasts… So I wanted to thank you for doing these podcasts, and for sharing your thoughts and stories with us. You are making a difference and you have helped me realize some of the things I need to change in my life.”
“Your email and Patron episode have put a massive smile on my face this morning…. thank you. I must tell you that thanks to the learning healing growing and evolving I’ve been able to do with your help, I managed to leave my abusive relationship 2 weeks ago. And I feel amazing. It’s taken me months to get to this point and to escape the abused mindset… and I’m well aware it’s an ongoing journey. But I wouldn’t have started it without you… I’m not scared to be me anymore. I owe you man… really 🙂 I appreciate you”
“You are so generous with your time, thoughts and wisdom. I’m so grateful that you are here Paul and doing what you do”
“There are no words to express my gratitude for all that you have done for me Paul.”
“Thank you for this; it helps me in my journey… PS: very good decision I took yesterday to join Patron Program”
“…I am doing well all things considered, and have very much appreciated your help this year… I have been enjoying the podcast and benefiting from it. Much of your advice on dealing with step children really resonated with my issues with my niece, and I think was very useful for Aunties… just wanted you to now that I’m glad to be in the patron program, and feel that it is a good value for me, whether I am writing or not, and very grateful to have you on my team, as it were.”
“I forgot to mention how much I enjoy and learn from the personal stories you share on your podcast. I’ve been especially moved by your courage in standing up to your stepfather and refusing to let him in the house. Only one who has endured brutality from another as a child can appreciate the strength it took as an adult to take a stand and say, No More. I applaud your bravery and thank you for allowing your listeners to learn and take inspiration from your trials. Way to go! My life has been forever changed and I am forever grateful”
“And just thank you… that was my closure, it was, for me, very, very meaningful closure, and I feel better and more whole than I’ve felt in a long time.”
“…I’m in this position because I started listening to your podcast. Over time I gained the strength to stand up for myself and not tolerate abusive behavior. It’s late In the game for me, so I couldn’t be happier that I found you. I can envision a life of self respect and peace .. at last. Even if I am alone the rest of my life. I will be okay. Thanks again, Paul.”
“Wow Paul. Thanks so much! You really are great at what you do! This is so so helpful and so much more then I have ever gotten from a counsellor or psychologist! Amazing!”
“Thank you !!!! Your input was like water in a desert to me… thank God for your beacon of truth. Thank you for your compassion, wisdom, directness, humor and intelligence. Thank you so much. It makes persevering possible you are truly a bright light of common sense and intuitive emotional intelligence. THANK YOU”
Keep up the good work. People need you… I appreciate you also. “
“I just wanted to tell you that thanks to you and your podcasts and your email support I was able to handle this situation a lot differently than I ever did in the past and it felt good to see the look in her eyes of our astonishing conversation and her understanding of our communication for which we had never experienced in the whole 4 years of our relationship!… a HUGE THANK YOU TO YOU PAUL!!!! You helped me tremendously!!!”
“I’m sure you get this a lot, but this podcast (along with other tools and other podcasts) has “saved my life”. Not from suicide, which I’m proud to say is never an issue for me although I experience the same feelings often (without a doubt)…. Your podcast saved “Who I Am”. Saved me from essentially being dead inside and just being a “body” without a soul. It helped me survive and “be okay” while actively living a life devoid of purpose, meaning, hope, genuine feelings, or any sense of a future… it helped me just persist while in this dark place and retain “who I am”…Thank you.”
“I’m a new listener, and seldom send feedback, but wow, am connecting bigtime!”
“I would like to take this opportunity offer my sincere thanks to you for the quality, originality and relevance of your podcasts. There are some that have illuminated parts of me that I have just never seen, or even suspected existed, although I have seen the effects of them in my feelings and behavior for years. I have reached a point where my life is changing and I must take action on some of these issues so I have just bought your book to use with the podcasts to do just that and I can’t wait to get it and get started… Thank you again and keep up the good work – you really are making a difference in the world!”
“Thank you so much for reading my letter on the air in today’s podcast. You brought me to tears (of joy). I have been separated from my husband about two months now and in that time I have regained some of my self worth and self love back… I now am taking the time to process one emotion at a time which is one of the things you recommended in your response today. It made me feel good to know I was on the right path and you really helped validate a lot of decisions I have made… I just wanted to take time to say thank you… You are a good hearted kind person who adds huge value to my life and I know many others.”
“I found your show about a year ago when I was struggling to forgive my emotionally abusive ex… For me, the ‘aha!’ moment was when you said something to the effect of “You don’t have to forgive them!” I just thought that, since I consider myself a caring, compassionate person, forgiveness was something I should be able to do. Your words took that pressure off and I basically just stopped trying and pushing so hard to force myself to forgive him, and that allowed me to focus on diving deeper into some of the underlying problems I’d been carrying around…. Thanks for being a voice of reason and source of inspiration for all of us! You are amazing!!”
“I’m so proud and appreciative of your insight and ability to express and educate people on these very hard and confusing topics. I’m definitely wanting to work with you”
“I think you are wonderful. I found your podcast about 6 months ago and have had so many eye opening insights that therapists years ago could not provide. Looking forward to the MEAN workbook. I know I’m in a manipulative relationship…just figuring it out FINALLY…feeling stupid yet hopeful and waiting for your wise insight and guidance.”
“I love your show and am writing to thank you for your podcast… After listening to your show, I felt I could take a step to stand up for myself… I now feel free to stop to go on with my life in a new way. It is as if I left the toxic roots of my childhood in the rear view mirror! At last. I learned from you it’s never too late to start living a better life. You showed me how, and I send you my heartfelt thanks. I am new to your website and will consider becoming a patron. Thanks for the wonderful work you do–it can be life-changing. It was for me.”
“I love your podcast and look forward to it every week. I can really relate to the majority of subjects that you cover. You’ve had a positive impact on my life, and the relationships in my life. Anyway, I just wanted to share my appreciation. Thanks and please keep doing what you’re doing!”
“THANKS for being so in touch with us (everyone ‘out there’ in your listening audience) keep up the excellent work you are the only podcast out there with your insight, heart , humor and truth.”
We are so much happier now and healing already. Not easy but thanks for your podcast ) “Thank you for producing an amazing podcast. I found it on iTunes within the last couple of weeks and your methodology has already begun to help me feel empowered… I look forward to receiving your weekly emails along with listening to your podcasts. Thank you for all that you do and for your gracious support.”
“I wanted to thank you so very much… I listen to you everyday and are going thru all of your episodes keep them coming they give me STRENGTH”
“I’m 47 and in my first healthy relationship. You helped get me there. Thanks.”
“By chance, I stumbled upon your podcast today and even though I would almost never reach out like this, I wanted to send my appreciation for just how timely and helpful listening to just one podcast has been for me already. (I’ve actually listened to a couple more since… Slowly but surely, and with the help of your podcast, things will start looking up and I’ll get through this and hopefully be better off from the experience. Thank you so much for providing such a useful resource”
“I LOVE your podcast! I have been listening nonstop for a week since I found it and have gleaned so much good, practical teaching that my mind is BLOWN!
Also, the funny, vulnerable way that you present your show is endearing. It’s unique, interesting, thought provoking AND entertaining..oh, and did I mention helpful?!
Thank you so much for what you do and I plan to become a patron..”
“I want to Thank you sincerely for literally everything… saving my sanity… Thank you so much xoxoxo”
“I really enjoy listening to your podcast ; you do not pretend that you can fix people …like some Gurus…with the magic thought ; you are down to earth + You are accessible and very resourceful; helpful; and full of compassion. Even with your success you are still human; I can relate to you and your stories”
“When I heard your podcast it tripped me out that someone thought like me, but while I felt so knowledgeable already at that point I realized I still had so much to learn…”
“I just want to say thank you for an insightful article on infidelity. My husband sent me the link and when I started to read the article I couldn’t stop…”
“I am so happy I discovered your podcast! Wow, what a refreshing difference it is to listen to you and be given tools to work with vs sitting on a shrinks couch getting no where!!”
“Thank you for your show – I have only been listening for a couple of months, but now your show is integrated into my mental health regiment.”
“I’ve never felt so much respect for myself and had so much respect being given to me! You really have helped me change my life for the better. I appreciate everything you do! I hope things continue to go well for your podcast and life.”
“I wanted to thank you for your podcasts. Wonderfully spoken. A lot of it is what I tell my children on a daily bases. It is nice to hear someone saying the same things. Also speaking and hearing them can be different. I have been listening to the podcasts when I go to the gym. I do feel pretty amazing. Thank you!”
“I’m so abundantly grateful for your show. Your wisdom has truly enriched my life”
“…you are truly the voice of a personal guardian angel so often. God bless you in your anointed work.“
“You cover real life topics in ways that are clear and understandable to everyone. I think it’s important to understand human nature/behavior so one doesn’t live their life wearing rose colored glasses, and I think your talks help give people that kind of exposure for those who need it.”
“…I passed along that episode to a friend and I told him if he isn’t ready for therapy at least he should be listening to your weekly podcasts. I have done a lot of emotional work over [the] years and I am aware of what’s (who’s) out there and in my opinion you and your work are by far more helpful than most other’s. So I will continue listening to your podcasts and share them with anyone around me who wants to grow.”
“Your podcast was very helpful and so relatable, alot of time I was thinking to myself ‘yep that’s me’. I have taken on board everything you have said I will put it into practice. I am so touched that you have taken your time to help me and others. Thank you so much.”
“I am impressed with your personal touch and really feel comforted by your podcasts and approach to topics and people’s questions… Thank you so much for sharing so much of yourself with your listeners. It is quite an impressive gift you are putting out into the world.”
“Love to listen to your podcast. It helps me to get more understanding about people around me and most important about myself. Thanks.”
“Been listening to your podcasts for about a month or two now and I have to say thank you! Listening to your podcasts has opened my eyes to a new way of thinking and I do feel as if I’ve been experiencing a lot of personal growth so I say again thank you! “
“I’m really liking who I’m becoming thanks to your show. I refer it to everyone I can… I think it’s so awesome how you help people and I try to help give back with the amazon site.”
“Dear Paul, I am so happy I discovered your podcast! Wow, what a refreshing difference it is to listen to you and be given tools to work with vs sitting on a shrinks couch getting no where!!”
“Just wanted to thank you for all the time and thoughtfulness you put into your shows. You really do care about your audience and it’s obvious you hope to help them lead better lives in whatever way they can… Thank you for all you do.”
“I’ve been listening to your stuff a couple months now and ….bloody hell…. I can’t thank you enough man. You have helped me put the mush of confusion and doubt in my head into some kind of order. Stuff is making sense. I’m making serious progress… A million thank yous”
“Thank you. Today I found your podcast. My wife left me 3 months ago almost to the day. It has been a long long road. It feels like an eternity… Only now after listening to your podcasts on resentment and 20 reasons is everything modestly clear. I feel as if I am close to letting her go. No words can express the difficult time I have had. Counseling has been somewhat helpful, but the 2 hours I have spent listening to you has been a giant leap. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.“
“Your podcast is the first I have ever donated to, even though I’ve only been listening to it for only 2 days, I have already found help from your words. Your episode ‘Relationship love, acceptance…leave or stay’ really woke me up but that is exactly what I am going through this past year and a half… thank you for your podcast it is helping me a lot”
“…THANK YOU, once again, for your advice. I know there are probably many out there like myself who are making changes in their lives for the better due to your coaching.”
“I’m really just wanting to say a simple thank you… I’ve been struggling with alignment on my values… and figured I’d check out your podcast menu for values-related content…and voila! So helpful and grounding. And this brings me to the thank you…I see almost 200 free podcasts there and my jaw drops as I struggle to create my “freebie” and a few blog posts to start. I can only imagine the work involved and really honor your generosity in offering this light to others for no charge. Seeing this sincere offering (and experiencing it in through the podcasts) truly makes an impact. It really has for me and I just had to take a minute to say thank you. Thank you.”
“Great show this week – you never know who in your listening audience is going through just what you’re discussing on your show – this week it was me… I look forward to your show every week, you do a great job of relating to people & bringing your experience to the show.”
“Thanks so much Paul! I love I can email with questions this patron program is great! Have a wonderful day!”
“I really admire you and your work. I’m going through some rough times in being unemployed… I will keep your emails ( I keep them all) in one file so that when I’m ready to make the time and have the concentration to listen to them. I never forget your wonderful podcasts and information, you are great Paul!”
“I want to thank you for your guidance. I listen to your episodes weekly, and I always have something to take from it. You truly have moved me, and guided me onto the path I want to be on. I’m not there yet, but I’m getting closer. Your episodes are easy-listeners, but very complex… I’m sure you get it a lot, however I want to personally thank you. You are an inspiration and a role model.”
“I really appreciate you caring so much about every little detail, that says a lot about you. All your listeners are so blessed to have you . I listen to you every week and I think you are getting better if such a thing is possible because I think you were terrific to begin with . Thank you. You are amazing”
“I love your show and listen to it often. I hope that you know how many people you’re helping and the difference that you’re making in many people’s lives. I just purchased “The overwhelmed Brain” book on amazon and can’t wait to read it. Thank you so much for being there for me when no one else was… I want you to know that you have made a difference in my life. For that, I am forever and always will be grateful for that. Once again thank you for being amazing.”
“Thanks for all your guidance and advice on The Overwhelmed Brain! Much Love and Many Blessings”
“I just started listening to your podcast last week and I am hooked. I absolutely love the content you talk about, and its helped me with self awareness and wanting personal growth. Thanks for all you are doing!”
Thanks for all you do and making a difference in people’s lives.”
“Just bought your book on amazon.ca. Yay! Can’t wait to receive it. Thanks for all you do and all you share. YOU are amazing!”
“I really thank you for your service. It’s amazing that you’ve transformed hardship into healing for yourself and others. You are inspiring! Please do let me know if you need help with anything, I would be glad to assist you in whatever way I can. Anyways, THANK YOU AMAZING HUMAN 🙂 Take care!”
“You have helped me a lot so far, and I just love your wisdom. I could use every bit of it. Thank you again for all you do! “
“It is amazing how your podcast are so timely in my life. I have been fully committed to healing, personal growth, and living authentically after I learned that the person whom I dearly loved was not in love with me. Today I was faced with my first real test, rejection and dishonestly masked as the usual, “you must have misunderstood me.” My first thought was, “can I walk-the-walk of personal empowerment, self-compassion, and the freedom from identifying my happiness through someone else?”… in short, I failed. I failed miserably. Like really, really bad. When I was faced with yet another manipulative situation and emotional abuse, I caved in like a rookie. I became angry and resentful. Hatred gave rise to crying like a baby (in private). I was so disappointed with myself. Until, 7-hours later, I realized that; yes, I had evolved. Yes; I was in control of me. Although, I felt like a total failure several hours earlier, I recovered faster than I ever have… I know that I must stop resisting the hate, stop being in denial about rejection, let my raw feelings flow, and release the emotions… Learning how to not give a $&@! and really mean it, never felt so empowering. Learning how to self-soothe and return to homeostasis, is a blessing that I accredit to your podcasts and book.”
“I am a woman with Bipolar Disorder, complex PTSD, generalized anxiety, ADHD and Premenstrual Dysphoric Syndrome. (Yes, I am loads of fun at parties.) I wanted to tell you that I LOVE your podcast and think your advice is spot on… I think that any person who has survived trauma would get a lot out of your podcast. I certainly have. Your advice reinforces the positive things that I have learned on my journey but without the saccharine-coating that I have found in so many self help books and sites. I love that you address and promote critical thinking and authenticity… I appreciate what you do, and if I were not struggling financially due to my disabilities I would absolutely be a contributing Patron. I discovered The Overwhelmed Brain only a couple of weeks ago and have been going through your archives ever since. You have quickly become one of my favorite podcasts. So I just want to say thank you for your work. This multiple trauma survivor thinks you completely ROCK. Thank you for what you do! You, Paul, are amazing! :)”
“I’ve found that if I keep listening you’ll say something I really needed to hear! “
“The first podcast I ever listened to was the one where you were sharing a negative review someone had written. I decided to hear what you had to say and, quite frankly, I was very impressed. You strike me as a “what you see, is what you get” person. I admire the way you handled the criticism. I am so grateful that I stay tuned to your program. Keep doing what you’re doing, I have no doubt that you are changing lives! Your podcasts are great, I’ve enjoyed hours of them this week.”
“Thanks for mailing me a copy of your book, I’m about 1/3 in and loving it – I’m already recommending it as a resource to my clients.”
“I have been going through a crisis… I started digging for knowledge and empowerment to get out of the crushing emotional pain I was in. I stumbled onto your podcasts. They have helped me more than you know! Here are some things that I have applied to my life:
1. Nurture myself.
2. I have learned to meditate and visit my inner child. That has really helped!
3. Learning personal boundaries
4. Take time away and heal emotionally. Become more self aware.
You have been so vulnerable and honest with your listeners. It has helped me grow. Thank you Paul!… you are making an impact on the world and making it a better place, one person at a time.”
“I recently (about 2 minutes ago) signed up for the Bronze program. I am so happy to be a part of your Patron Program and am an avid listener of your podcast. Just wanted to extend my appreciation for the time, effort, and heartfelt passion you apply to everything you do with The Overwhelmed Brain. The first episode had my attention — your true authenticity and relatable discussion is so incredibly helpful and relevant. I’ve learned so much and have been applying new steps into my daily life to reach newer, deeper levels of emotional stability and happiness. I will continue listening and supporting the show, and I hope to one day reach out with a question that needs some extra help 🙂 Wishing you the very best”
“I just wanted to say I’m totally enjoying your book. It’s very thought provoking with dealing with your life values and what is important to us. Then healing from the past. So I just wanted to say Thank you again. You out did yourself… Really makes you ask yourself certain questions about your life.”
“bought your book and I’m hooked! Very good read :D”
“I just want you to know how much you have helped me. You are the most clear communicator I have ever heard. I recently bought your three books. I loved How to Deal with Irrational People and Clear the Path to Happiness as well as I have been listening to your Podcasts for a couple months… You helped me figure somethings out that has empowered me to take action in a way that has lifted my anxiety and depression, which I considered a life long problem I would always have, no matter what I did or didn’t do… For the first time in my life because of the way you break everything down when you explain your thoughts You helped me figure somethings out that has empowered me to take action in a way that has lifted my anxiety and depression, which I considered a life long problem I would always have, no matter what I did or didn’t do… I have seen therapists, Psychologists and Psychiatrists, but for the first time in my life I feel hopeful that I can trust myself to be in charge… again Thank you so much for doing your podcasts and your books… They have been life changing even though I have not nearly gone through them all but I intend too!… truly you are amazing”
“I just want to say thank you, SO MUCH for your “are you with a manipulative person” podcast. The universe knows I need it spelled out for me in order to not excuse it away, or question the evidence… after months of research and reading, meditating, self-help books and hours of podcasts… You spoke DIRECTLY to me, and have created clarity in a very crazy time, and I am scared about the path ahead, but am thankful for this knowledge.”
“Paul, I can’t even begin to tell you how thankful I am for this podcast and your transparency! Receiving a podcast notification for a new show is like Christmas morning to me! Before finding this podcast, I felt alone in my thoughts but not anymore! You read and answered my question on the air in your last podcast, I was so surprised, you actually do read every email–that is so heartfelt and impressive!! You’d mentioned that you began your emotional journey at 35. I’m 35, and have finally surrendered to “the emotional healing process”. It’s kind of lonely, but much of my time is being spent discovering who I am and what brings me joy. Keep the podcast coming, Paul! I can’t say enough good things and the difference these teachings have made in my life makes all the difference in the world. I just simply want to say “thank you”.
“I just wanted to reach out and thank you for your podcasts. I found them in a time where I needed them the most. I am a well known radio announcer from ***** & I got so caught up in being this on air personality… Committing all my time to community events & getting my brand out there that I completely lost myself. I struggled with anxiety because I was obsessed with people liking me & being a good role model to others as a public figure. Then came the depression. I was good at hiding it though because I wore a mask while I’d do my radio show… pretending to be happy when I really wanted to just break down… Well eventually that break down happened. Last month. My doctor signed off on a leave of absence so I could seek out the therapy & time away from the spot light that I needed… And that’s when I stumbled upon The Overwhelmed Brain. Your podcasts are the first thing I listen to in the morning on the way to work to keep me grounded. Just wanted to say thank you”
“Paul, I just want to say Thank You right now. Driving along feeling very overwhelmed I found your podcasts about a month ago. The amount of insight I have had after listening to what you have to say has been truly amazing. I am very appreciative of the way you describe concepts I have heard before but somehow evaded me. You have a special gift of making this difficult, deep work connect in my mind and enabled me to understand some critical components of myself and my past. I joined your Patron program and am looking through the workbooks… Thank you for making these worksheets. I’ve been going through the feed and have probably listened to 10-12 hours. I also signed up for getoutofthemess.com which is another piece of brilliant advice from you… Thank you for the huge effort you made to create all this… I think with the tools you provide I can save my own life and maybe my marriage.”
“I started listening to your podcast a couple of months ago. They have helped me quite a bit in my personal dealings of anxiousness, depression, self worth and self esteem… I just wanted to reach out and thank you… I appreciate all you’re doing… it is making a difference in People’s lives.”
“I stumbled on (right, lol there are no coincidences) your podcast. Today is the first day I have listened…and its hard to stop. I have read so many books, been through so much counseling… your podcasts are like oxygen to one suffocating! Wow! I love the personality, unique point of view, level headed yet humorous, advice and insight you bring to light…you are truly fulfilling your highest purpose in helping others , using your pain and life to help others… I also love your confident soothing voice…. thanks for all the wonderful insight so pleasantly delivered. Great job and God bless you!”
“I am still in recovery from my last relationship which really left me empty as I did not expect a person to be so cruel and I know I will recover as your podcasts have encouraged me to get up and move on as their is no time limit on healing and no pressure to evaluate my situation.”
“Just a quick message to say how great your show is & to thank you for taking the time to do it. It really is appreciated! You always give an honest and refreshingly open perspective on life’s difficult situations. Thanks again. “
“I want to thank you so much for discussing my issue on your podcast yesterday! … I also want to thank you for your advice. You are truly making a difference in people’s lives. P.S. I just joined the patron program and I am excited dive in!”
“I just want to say that I think your podcast was great! Thank you for sharing… it’s been a real tough year. Thank you Paul for sending your thoughts and advice to all these people, who I’m sure also benefit lots from them!”
“When you read the email from “John” and what he went through, that was me after my toxic break up and I couldn’t understand why I grieved so much and couldn’t get over it but you helped me understand how dependent I was on her. My relationship now is 50 50 and I am in a very different place I just wanted to thank you for helping me still after almost 2 years of listening every week ( I should probably just enroll in the coaching) you help me understand myself”
“…once I heard your interview with Amy Morin, I felt something within me start waking up. I began to listen to several of your other podcasts, and I no longer feel stagnant. I’ve started to move forward (baby steps), and get back into life again, but this time with much more gratitude, and forgiveness, So I wanted to take the time to say thank you. Keep up the good work. And much success to you.”
“Just wanted to say thanks for a show i heard. My current situation is very challenging, and it was very helpful to me. Sometimes brevity is best, so sincerely thank you and all the best. “
“LOVE, love, love your podcasts, so helpful! Thank you!”
“I began listening to your show the end of last year. You gave me the courage to get the help I needed and my life is great now.”
“I’m going through a rough time right now. The couple podcasts I’ve read have already helped me with perspective. Your writing is amazing- clear and interesting and helpful. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your material :-)”
“I am grateful to you for being you, and helping people who don’t always know they need it.”
“I came across your podcasts a couple of weeks ago. I have listened to you almost non stop and I am amazed at the difference you have made to my emotional awareness, strength or rather lack thereof and general wellbeing. I have a great deal of healing to do and your words and experiences are an incredibly valuable resource. Thank you.”
“…right from the first thing I listened from you, I literally thought something like “WOW, this guy knows his sh*t!” Because it’s been a while since I realized how lame all these affirmations crap. Like “The Secret” movie, etc. And you just framed it right, and hit the spot. From one of the marketing courses I learned that if you can formulate something better than you customer do, they will have that enlightening feeling like “yeah, exactly, this guy knows what I think about”. That thing just happened and I’m your fan since then ;)”
“Thanks so much for what you do and being you! You’ve helped me realize a lot, I think my family considers me weird in a way that I like this podcast so much. But they could learn just as much and I think about what you say in your podcasts a lot, and how to improve myself! And you’re the main person who helped me though podcasts and encouraged me. Also the biggest thanks for writing your books I would’ve never heard of the podcast other wise and realize things I haven’t realized before. I enjoy being me and starting to enjoy my family more. Your amazing too!! :)”
“I so appreciate your Episodes, I think you are on the right track and every time i read one of your shares, I feel better and when things get scattered I think about your words, I am grateful for your knowledge and ability to help folks like me.“
“The manipulative episode brought tears to my eyes because it was confirmation of what I knew I had been dealing with for years. He made me think I was crazy! I can’t believe how spot on everything was you said… This episode is so healing for me!!! He keeps trying to get me back but I’m finally hip to his delays! He will never change. Thank you thank you and thank you for that episode!!!!”
“I just want to thank you for your amazing podcasts… I held on to a toxic relationship out of fear, his control in not wanting to let me go… It was empowering to know that for once, it was okay to put myself first and not worry about how that would impact this man, a manipulator. I’m on a great path now, so seriously thank you. I’ve read tons of self help books, followed Buddhism etc. but nothing has actually flipped the switch in my mind like you have. Many blessings to you!”
“Your podcast on July 10th has literally changed my life. Thanks for your words of healing and speaking life back into me!”
“I don’t know you personally, but I can confidently say that you are one of the most authentic people I’ve ever known… I totally love that about you!… I just want to make sure you know I appreciate you:)”
“A friend pointed me here, as well as others in a forum who are partners of survivors of childhood sexual abuse… I must say that even though I’m new to most of your material it’s exceptionally helpful. “
“…You are completely transparent and allow yourself to be vulnerable… Unlike so many other coaches or personal development podcast hosts, you take chances. You share your mistakes, your faults and your true stories as they apply to the topic. There are so many others that preach and teach and without realizing it, exude a god-like persona that people end up trusting – but it’s totally false. Those “preachers” are actually counterproductive to their audience because people strive to think it is actually possible to be “like” that coach or speaker and not have any struggles or issues. It’s just not realistic and I myself have fallen into that trap… Thank you Paul. You are an awesome human being with charisma and ingenuity. My best to you and yours each and every day. Thank you for sharing yourself with the world and making it your mission to help others like me.”
“Please know that with your words, you are helping people to examine the deepest parts of their lives. I appreciate any time I can listen to your show as you approach very meaningful topics. It is the highlight of my week! I may have stumbled on your podcast with a random search but I sure listen with intent as often as the new podcasts are released… Thank you again for the podcast and attention to detail with matters that are close to my heart. Best blessings for you.”
You have a gift and you have to know what your gift means to people like myself. For what is worth, you’ve obviously touched something inside me and many other lost souls like myself. Thank you Paul. I’m glad you’re alive at this time in history! The world definitely needs more people and healers with your brutal honesty and down-to-earthiness. Your message of accepting and appreciating the full spectrum of the intellectual complexity and feelings of being a human is what humanity has needed all along. Thanks for giving us permission to do that.”
“Thank you for a very insightful coaching session. You have been a beacon of light both virtually (via your podcasts, books and worksheets) and now via our coaching sessions as I maneuver through turbulent waters. I am grateful to you for the courage and strength you have given me to take on what has come my way, and no matter what may come down in the future. The work you are doing is noble. Thank you.”
“I’ve been to various different counselors over the years and am currently seeing a great psychoanalyst and have been for nearly 2 years. It took me a long time to understand the ‘point’ of psychoanalysis and to get any benefit from it. Reading the transcripts and listening to your shows has helped me take bigger steps than I thought possible… I really appreciate what you do – I haven’t ever come across anyone that understands the way I think quite as you do. I guess what I’m trying to say is thank you and I rave about your show to whoever will listen!”
“Thanks SO MUCH for being available and for sharing your wisdom with me. I’m not sure if it’s partly because of where I am now, but your teachings are making things make sense! I’ve been to life coaches and therapists who have been vague and misleading, but you put things so clearly!”
“It really was a great talk. You’re so personable and easy to talk to, and I got far more out of today’s talk than WEEKS of therapy!! You can tell your listeners that! You are very perceptive and thorough and you quickly assessed and “got” my husband and our troubles with great accuracy. Everyone wants to be heard and understood. Not everything I do or say is right, but giving validity to my issues was huge (HUGE!!). I do feel like it all went into that learning place in my head, thankfully, because it is emotionally draining to talk about all if this stuff! Thank you so very much. I know you went way over, so I owe you! You are Amazing!! Thanks again”
“I just needed to let you know how much I appreciate you and your show. I have to be honest, I asked God for some guidance, and then next thing I knew, I randomly came across your podcast. I think I have listened to one podcast in my entire life, so how and why I found yours is a mystery. Regardless, I am not going to question anything because I’ve felt more positive this past week than I have in the past two years.”
“One of the best points of your podcast is that you don’t try to look immaculate!! You show your experiences without fear, you tell when you are triggered, when you get stressed etc. You are such a down to earth coach that it is much easier for me to understand what being balanced means!! It is not about perfection but about playing with life and go on.”
“I just wanted to thank you for the great work you’re doing, Paul. I lost my husband to cancer three years ago and felt like I lost myself at the same time. Your podcasts have given me positive things to think about and work on. You have no idea what a difference you’ve made in my life and I thank you”
“Wow, your podcast was absolutely brilliant. So insightful and beneficial. Thank you for sharing your experiences as well and for the wonderful advice… I’m finally beginning to see everything in another perspective and finding self love and compassion. I have enrolled myself in hobbies I find enjoyable like fitness and surrounding my self with things that make me happy along with people who are positive and supportive of my happiness… I have also started to stand up for myself with my family and started to create boundaries (I really liked your boundaries podcast as well)… I will take the baby steps to do what you advised, and if I find it’s very hard I’ll for sure be contacting you for coaching. I will be sending this podcast to my friends as well. Thank you once again Paul, I really appreciated what you did.”
“I just wanted to say thank you for the kids episode. I learned a lot of important information that I haven’t heard yet. Thank you again it helped me a lot and I’ve already put it in play at school”
“You give so much hope and guidance for so many people all over the world. I sometimes wonder, if you can sense, how you change so many people, how you change the world. Gandhi once said: ‘Be the change you want to see in the world’ You are the change! YOU ARE AMAZING!”
“I love your work. You have brilliant insight and invigorating vulnerability.”
“I’m still listening to all your shows and I’m growing more each and every day. I’m discovering answers to my problems because for the first time in my life I’m HONOURING MY BOUNDARIES. I’m beginning to be authentic… I just want to respond and thank you for getting me here – even though it’s the start – I’m here. I’m so grateful to have stumbled upon your podcast.”
“Thank you so much for your great podcasts! Every week when I drive to therapy I have a ritual of listening to them, I always gain at least one profound revelation from the podcasts, so thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Also, your voice is super calming, there is something about the base of your voice which is quite lulling and reassuring… Thank you again!”
“I’m actually from Singapore and English isn’t my best language. I have been listening to your podcasts for almost a year and at first I just listen for the sake of improving on my English. And also because I’m interested in learning more about human behaviour too. Anyway.. the more I listen the more I’m starting to understand things about myself and the people around me. I’m starting to honour myself more, respecting other people boundaries and many more. I just want to say thank you. I’ve change my perspective on things and thus my life start to change for the better slowly. I do have some problems I’m facing but I’m able to manage it.
I can’t thank you enough for the podcast. And I hope you’ll continue making more of this. “
“I love your work Paul. Your a gifted thinker and writer”
“I reunited with my first true love 30 yrs later. I want to thank you for the podcasts as they are such valuable information.”
“Thank you for your podcasts! You’ve talked me through some tough times and helped me re-program my brain. I replaced my “netflixion” with personal growth podcasts and got some great work done!… I have horrible anxiety and being able to focus on a podcast (especially yours!) helps me calm down and logic my way out of feeling paralyzed… Thank you again for being so vulnerable and bringing me along with you in your own personal growth journey.”
“I wanted to reach out to you to let you know I really appreciate and admire you and your podcast. The first episode of yours I listened to was the “dealing with chronic pain” episode. I actually have Tourette syndrome… My condition doesn’t only mess with you emotionally, but the physical pain from the motor aspects can get pretty intense too. Listening to that certain podcast really resonated with me. I loved how you said you deal with your pain by understanding it may never go away, but at the same time you are optimistic it will heal in the future. I have been on a mission to come to peace with my condition in the sense that there is nothing I can do since there is no cure, but at the same time I pray one day a pill will be invented that will cure me. Anyways, thanks again! Just thought I would let you know how much I appreciate what you do.”
“Thank You Paul for the amazing, valuable, eye opening, yes almost always challenging but also and up to this point incredibly rich contribution you bring… You truly are the best in my book.”
“I just wanted to say thank you. I came across your podcast on the passive-productive response to difficult people. It’s so spot on and makes so much sense. I look forward to listening to more of your episodes. Thank you! x”
“Just wanted to let you know how beneficial your podcasts are to me just now. Recently made the difficult decision to leave a long marriage. Easy listening with useful hard hitting messages. Thanks”
“I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I think you’re a wonderfully intuitive person and I appreciate the help you have given me. “
“Your insight is a blessing. I am making changes, every moment, and although they are baby steps, I am moving FORWARD. You have inspired me to change my circumstances… I thank you, for the power and strength you give me, as well as hope for a new life.”
“Hi Paul, I just want to thank you for having the courage to talk about the messy parts of being a human being that we all experience at some point in our lives. It’s really nice to be reminded that whatever it is, we are not alone.”
“That was sooooo nice of you to send me a voice message thanking me for the donation, but truthfully, $5 is an insignificant amount and I wish and hope to be able to do much, much more in future days! You and your podcast impact and help others much more than you can imagine…you deserve everything that is good in this world.”
“Your words are so powerful and greatly appreciated… Thank you so much for your consideration and all that you have done for me, my friends and family (through me), and so many other listeners! I appreciate YOU!”
“I’m a new listener and I just wanted to reach out and say thank-you! You’ve opened my mind and some things are just sticking… being a ‘yes person’ and how it ends up destroying you. I’ve just experienced one of the most challenging years of my life… Looking forward to more awesome podcasts!”
“Hi, Paul! Last month I discovered on my Iphone this great opportunity to listen to your podcasts. You are simply great. I am really focused on improving myself and your podcasts are a 100% contribution to my life. I speak Spanish but I know English, however I wanna say that your pace and accent is very clear for us who speak another language. I hope to shop soon on amazon or just make a donation because I feel we cannot be a free riders taking advantage of your willingness to help people around the world. Thanks and blessings for this 2016!”
“Thank you. Because of great people like yourself I have learned to become a better person. I’ve gotten over a really rough relationship and met a really supportive and interesting woman instead. I’ve had a promising job that I didn’t get turn into going back to school after 18 years and hopefully within a month I will graduate and be able to go back and get that job because I now meet the requirements. Thank you very much Paul. Listening to your podcast has taught me so much about myself.”
“Your podcast is awesome…just saying…I really like it and it has made a huge difference in my life especially the one about anxiety. It kind of opened my eyes as to why i probably have/had it and steps i can take to eliminate it, at least partly.”
“I just wanted to get in touch to say I love your show. It has really helped me these past few months and shown me that personal growth and change is possible and we don’t need to be ‘stuck’ forever. Thank you very much! “
“I’ve been trying to figure out the “WHY” of what sabotaging behavior I’m doing and searched on various topics of: sabotage, creating shame, avoidance and fear. I saw so much meat on your website that I tuned in and haven’t stopped. You have a great resource of information in all your previous episodes. Of course for me, it is always easier to ponder the “why” and try to figure out the behavior than actually putting the effort and action in; but I have to start somewhere! And I needed some motivation to attack it and I found that in your podcast.”
“I really enjoy your podcast. It has helped me come to some hard truths. I just stumbled upon it and I am thrilled I did because I cannot stand all the positive nonsense. I am a person who likes to deal in reality and get things done. Keep up the great work and I will keep recommending you.”
“Just letting you know I’m excited for our [coaching] appointment. Can’t wait! My son and I listen to you together a bit at bed time… for the past several nights he has been asking to listen to ‘the brain guy and his stories’. “
“It’s some sort of magic, or may be astral connection, but a lot of your episodes came out at a time when I needed them… Happy, that I’ve found something inside myself, I’ve moved out to work. On my path I’ve started to listen last episode of TOB and then I heard your thoughts about the snapping point. I’ve been in a very good mood all day.”
“Thank you for your work!””Just want to let you know that i listen to your podcast when I am at work, and it helped me a lot. Thankful that there are people out there keeping doing what they believe in. Thanks! and keep shining!”
Damn, I love your show, Paul! …Wondering about the vastness of it all is so fun and totally freeing from legalistic beliefs. Keep being awesome!”
“I appreciate and enjoy learning from The Overwhelmed Brain podcast. Thank you for everything you do for your listeners. I cannot speak for other listeners, but your podcasts make me more self-aware and challenge me to be better than I was last year. Thank you so much.”
“I love that you are there and can’t believe this is here for me to learn! I truly love how you present your podcast, you are doing fantastic the way you get your point across is amazingly helpful, keep going because I’m one in a million that really needs you, thanks Paul!”
“Just wanted to say a huge thank you for you podcasts. Inspirational and useful. You’ve change my way of thinking… I feel like a better version of myself”
“I’m a newbie to your podcast. Loving it! Thank you for sharing the knowledge, profound thoughts and just generally inspiring me”
“…I couldn’t go to work because I have been feeling down about how my significant other has hurt me in the past. You hit the nail on the head without me needing to seek therapy. I have the courage to develop a strong self esteem and courage to say So What!!!! Love it . Thank you so much to think more positively to either scream out how much I hate something and to just forgive a situation to release my hurt. Thank you again. A blessing in disguise.“
“I just discovered the Overwhelmed Brain podcast and use it as a supplement to keep me on a healing path in between weekly therapy sessions. The podcasts help me understand the process of emotional healing and how to create respectful boundaries. Your messages also remind me that I have the “power of choice… I have struggled with eating disorders for over 20 years. Only recently I shared it with health professionals after making the connection that I used certain behaviors to deal with (or not) my emotions. Unfortunately, I became discouraged after reading several articles on EDs and discovered that my recovery chances are slim. After listening to your podcast for two weeks, one of the most significant moments for myself happened. While on my nightly run I felt nauseous half way through the course. I was close to home and thought- I could easily go home, purge, feel better and finish my run. After all, its common to hear of people getting sick from running. But I knew I was fooling myself. Vomiting, for whatever reason, had a different affect on me. It is like an addictive drug that numbs the emotions, shuts down the chatter in my head, and brings in a calmness… for a moment. I actually turned down the street to head back home. Remembering your podcasts, I stopped on the corner. I had the power of choice. I am an adult, not a child. I have the knowledge and ability to make a healthy choice! I asked myself which end result would make me feel better. Purging or finishing the run? I reminded myself that it was OK to walk the rest of the way and that walking would even help my upset stomach. So I made a healthy choice for myself- because I could. And you know what, I felt better about myself for finishing and I no longer had a stomach ache. Needless to say, that moment was incredibly empowering. Regardless of what statistics say, right now I still have the power to make a healthy choice for myself. I know that there will be set backs and progress is slow. This past year can attest to that. But with a greater awareness that I have the ability to make positive choices, I am making small steps toward restoration. Thank you for the encouraging reminders that I have the ability to change. Thank you Paul for sharing your own personal growth journey. No doubt it must have been a difficult decision to open up to the world and bare all. It is amazing that by only being human in the most honest form- you have impacted so many lives by choosing to share your experience of pain, struggles, and growth with listeners like me. Thank you for educating yourself about the process of inward healing and choosing to share this knowledge with others. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart. “
“I have learned so much about myself from your podcast. You provide great content which is easy to understand and I easy to relate to. So I am hooked on your podcasts and I thank you for helping me and I am sure many others out there”
“Thank u Paul u r so amazing thank u thank thank u thank u. Thank u infinity. If ever I can be of help to u let me know. Oh an as soon as possible I will donate absolutely thank u”
“Absolutely love your show. Thank you for all the hard work and great advice”
“I just started listening to your podcast and I’m addicted to it. Keep up the great job because you are amazing 🙂 … Thx for sharing your knowledge with us.”
“Paul, I am truly grateful to the universe for your presence in this world. Notwithstanding the fact that you saw it in your heart to share your knowledge, wisdom and your life experiences to benefit others. It’s people like you that makes this world a much better place to live in..!! simply put…YOU ROCK !!”
“Hi Paul, I have been listening to your podcasts over the past couple of weeks and I think you are absolutely AWESOME..!! Your a god send..and helped me put things into perspective…THANK YOU”
“Thank you Paul for all your work. Your podcasts were a life saver when I had a severe anxiety/depression attack on a trip earlier this year. I scrambled for help online and discovered your podcast. I pulled up all the related topics in your podcasts and listened non-stop for the whole flight… Your calm, friendly, and realistic look on life helped me refocus in the midst of chaos, and I felt a window had opened by the time I was back to office. Thank you so much for what you do. I really appreciate your help!!”
“I love your podcast I have to listened to it Several times because there is so much to take in on each episode! This is so great. And I love your voice it’s so soothing and So enjoying to listen to! Keep going you’re fantastic. I tell everyone to listen to u even my kids! I’m so happy I found this it helps me so much It has opened my mind and I can see things Much clearer. I just love this podcast! You Are amazing and I’m so glad that u have Shared this to us all!! “
“Wow! I just purchased your Values Workbook [Reference: Stop Self-Sabotage] and I am amazed at how simple yet informative your process is. I will begin using my values to make my decisions today. I can really see how this could possibly change someones life. Thank you. I just recently started listening to your podcasts and I love them. They are so informative and real. Sometimes I can hardly wait to get into my car so I can listen to your show. I am really looking forward to your Relationship Boundaries and Passive Aggressive Behavior Workbooks to come available! Thank you again”
“I enjoy each and every episode of the show. It’s funny to me when your current episode is about the very thing my wife and I are struggling with. The 10 Components of a Satisfying, Loving Relationship, The Seven Habits of Highly Overextended People and Adapting to Change and Accepting Death were all episodes we really connected with. It’s these “Food for Thought” moments that I find myself looking at my life, connecting the dots and trying to figure out why I do the things I do. If it was not for The Overwhelmed Brain, my life would have fell apart. With your tools and some more time, I will create the life I want. Thanks for your time and energy.”
“During the show, when you speak about a topic, I love when you always dive in deeper and keep talking about it. Could not wait for you to say,”And, we will talk about that next”. Your wisdom is much needed. You helped me out Paul. The Overwhelmed Brain helped my relationships with my wife and children, along with work. I am proud of the show because you are here to help us… Your Breakdown process is an amazing tool. You know, “Why is this not a good thing?, And that?” And so on. Please keep the show going for as long as you can. I need to listen to your newest episode soon. Thanks for your time.”
“Just wanted to say I really enjoy your work and knowledge about life’s issues and how to overcome them and live a more happy full life in the process and remember. Paul, you are amazing!”
“Keep up the excellent work and thank you for your show.”
“Thanks so much for the time and effort you put into your podcast. I’ve already gained so much from it, and very much look forward to it every week.”
“I LOVE your Podcast!! You have so much insight even on subjects that people think they understand, but need those little pearls of wisdom to renew their interest and motivation to focus on those areas of potential growth… Your podcast gave me more direction in how to be my own champion by focusing on specific masculine qualities of “take charge” (more like “kick butt”) that I need to have over my own affairs… Thank you for your wisdom, exposed bravery, and love for others that make your podcast the first thing I want to listen to every day!”
“Your writing has been a tremendous help to me both professionally and personally. I stumbled upon your work when I was researching on the internet how to work with an irrational person. I found your article. Your writing was practical, easy to understand and useful. You not only offered tips and tricks…you also recommended I reflect upon my role in the situation. I successfully implemented your strategies and have increased my own self awareness as a manager, as well as greatly improved my relationship with the “irrational person’ on my team…as a result, my team and my organization are stronger, more positive, productive and effective. I am now a faithful follower of yours and look forward to your e-mails, as I always learn something new and beneficial!”
“I’ve listened to lots of people like Tony Robbins, Ester Hicks, Dov Baron, Deepak, etc., but Paul has been the one person who I can relate to and learn from more than any of the others”
“I have been listening to your podcast for over a year. And while they are all fantastic, this one really hit home. I will need to listen again to truly absorb it all. I have come so far! Absolutely amazing Paul. Thank you. I’ll be sharing this with others who truly need to hear this message!”
“I just wanted to take a moment to tell you that I’ve listened to several of your podcasts and they truly resonate with me! Especially when you talk about anxiety. I’ve been suffering with anxiety for more than half of my life and some of your responses to anxiety have stuck with me. I’ve even gotten my boyfriend turned onto listening! Thanks for putting your thoughts out there! You have no idea how much you have helped already!”
“Hey I really liked this article [Reference: How to Deal with Irrational People]. I read the whole thing. I’m 16 and this girl in my class is very irrational and over reacts at almost everything. I’m trying to do my best to help her but it’s not going to well. I think I’ll be able to apply some of these tips to my situation– Thank you very much!”
“I have been listening to your podcast for three straight weeks and I love every podcast. I listened to other podcasts but none really get to me. What you taught goes deeper than being positive. It’s helped me to know what caused the problem and get to the root. Thank you for doing the podcast”
“I’ve been listening to The Overwhelmed Brain for over a year now, and each week you bring something to the table that helps tremendously in my personal growth. I went through a breakdown last year caused by burnout and other insecurities… I lost my job, and am only now recovered enough to confidently look for a new position… The podcast, weekly newsletter, and books have been helping significantly. I’d like to extend my gratitude and heartfelt appreciation to you for always having the right topic up each week to help with my specific journey and no doubt the journeys of others in similar positions. Your wisdom, empathy, advice, techniques, life experiences, and humor are a breath of fresh air in a world that can get rather stuffy at times. Keep up the amazing work!”
“Thank you so much for the overwhelmed brain podcast, I really enjoy listening to it and “trying” to dig deep inside all my suppressed issues. I really have taken so much out of listening to the shows. Thank you.”
“Paul, just listened to your podcast, The Deception of Perfectionism. Your honesty and self-disclosure really made this information accessible and real. Your insight is powerful and clear. I’ll be listening to it a few more times. Thank for doing what you do. I’ve struggled with perfectionism all my life. This is the first material that has helped me understand the dynamic and my behavior. I’ve got a lot of work to do–but at least I have a glimpse of the way out.”
“I love your show. You are a true friend to me. I listen to your podcasts when I wake up early in the morning, usually around three am… I am sure you have no idea how wonderful you seem to many people and what a beneficial service you provide. Thank you.”
“I just want to say…and I have a feeling I speak for most of your listeners, you really have a way of making us feel like we really are important to you… You are there for us. I know I really appreciate it. I feel that if I ever have a really big issue, I could ask your advice and I would get it! Anyway, I just wanted to thank you…you are a person of character.”
“I loved your podcast and it spoke to me so much with issues going on in my own life. It was as if you were speaking to me directly… My brain has always been a mess of thoughts and questions and so unorganized but constantly thinking and over analyzing everything. I journal a lot and it helps, but nothing helped like your podcast. I have tried counselors and none seem to even touch base with how I am feeling, and at times I just felt like there was no hope. I felt like…I feel to much, think too much, ask questions that seem to have endless answers too hard to even understand, and then I heard your podcast and I felt like, for once, I was exactly where I needed to be in that moment. It was Like everything I am is for a reason, that there are other people who think and feel just as deep as I do. So please continue to keep up all the good work your doing an amazing job and I just hope I can help touch as many life’s someday like you have and I look forward to learning and growing from you!”
“I love love love your show. I started listening on my one hour commute to work each day. Thank you for sharing your soul…”
“I just started listening to your podcasts and I’m finding that you have a lot of insight into daily living and the challenges of life… One of the episodes that really hit home was about letting go of stuff that you have accumulated but can’t get rid of. I’m in the midst of a clean sweep of my house and I too have a big bag of wires that I going to let go. Keep up the good work trying to help people help themselves.”
“I appreciate all the great things you do to help those who seek guidance from you and all the ways in which you have already helped me through simple everyday things as well as some pretty tough times. Keep up the excellent work in your journey to help yourself and others grow and better themselves!”
“Thank you so much. When I listen to your podcast, life just seems so much simpler than how I interpret it. The show brings self-reflection through retrospect and ease all at the same time. An example would be the allowing some people comfort to just be themselves and simply accepting them for who they are. I need to thank you because forgiveness is much more welcoming than shame, and I feel like the more I love myself for the mistakes I’ve made along my journey, the less time I’ll actually have to be ashamed of the many lessons I’ve learned. I am so grateful for your newsletter, podcasts and the overall gifts that you share with the world. Thank you so much!”
“Thank you for doing what you do which makes me think that I am not nuts, and that someone else actually believes the same kind of thing that I do.”
“I don’t know if you’ll get this message or read it, but I wanna thank you so much. I have suffered with anxiety my whole life and your shows have helped me out so much. Whenever I feel my anxiety coming up I just play your podcast and it never fails that you always say something I can relate to. Not just that… you always point out the reason why. If I wasn’t in school and more financially stable I would totally donate money but since I can’t I at least want to thank you”
“Thank you for your amazing podcast series!! Been listening to non-stop since 6am”
“Hi Paul, I stumbled upon your podcast recently, and it has become a favorite pick-me-up. Listening to you feels like having a chat with an old friend”
“The podcast made the flight go fast, and I realized I have a lot to work on with my marriage. I have finally came to the conclusion I too entered my current relationship with a need not a desire to really make my wife happy. Goes back who’s in charge my inner kid or the adult me. Thanks again…”
“…It’s been over a year and I have listened to a lot of podcasts, one of them is yours Paul. Depression makes you stop and think. I am changing and feel I am getting better slowly. I notice different changes as the months go past. It will take time but I believe in miracles. I am a miracle, unique, and special. Thanks Paul for reinforcing it in your podcasts. Thanks for being there for people with difficulties in their lives. You’re great at what you do as you have also experienced all this. I appreciate you mate”
“Just a quick email to say thank you to you for your fantastic podcasts. I spend a lot of time in my car and your podcasts are such a wonderful source of calm and reassurance in what can otherwise be a very hectic day for me. I appreciate you!”
Thank you for doing this episode on how to deal with old beliefs or the inner child. I have gone to therapy for over ten years to deal with this problem. The therapist never explained it like the way you did in your message. I have many old beliefs that keep me from achieving what I really want. Removing the clutter is definitely the key. One of my old beliefs is not having a voice. It has kept me from writing to you. I have been listening to your podcasts starting this year or more. Thank you for having this podcast. BTW I use your Amazon link when I shop now. I believe in you. You are Amazing!“
“WOW! If you only knew how much the Hand of God IS upon YOU. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, your words have a way of resonating deep inside your listeners understanding like none other in your field. I am GRATEFUL you have CHOSEN to have “ears to hear”, for so many are truly being Blessed by your work. Thank YOU!”
“I listened to your podcast on programming your future success which clearly gave me more insight on myself. To be free from other people’s opinions beliefs is very freeing… I want to thank for helping me see things a little clearer. “
“Your podcasts are becoming an almost daily thing for me. I’m finding you are helping me to learn healthier self talk so that I don’t get caught up in my head. Often my brain is like a busy highway, and when I try to cross it I am scared of getting hit with all the thoughts. It can be difficult and stressful.Your openness is refreshing and I feel comforted by your words of wisdom. So thank you for that, Paul. You are sharing with others some invaluable life knowledge and strength.”
“I started listening to your podcasts about 6 weeks ago. At the time I was depressed, unemployed and unmotivated. The apathy of depression (and a difficult romantic relationship) had me wondering what it all means. What is the point? Is this all there is? And then I found your podcast. And I started walking and listening to your story and insights. The lessons and insights in your podcasts, are often reflective of advice I heard before or read. But as hard as I tried, I found it all hard to grasp – I could understand the benefit and wisdom – but couldn’t apply it. Finally I felt so much click into place as I listened to your experiences and perspectives – and research. The digging down, the admitting the feeling – suddenly I’m not looking for things outside of myself. The future isn’t so scary. I can self soothe. I am enough. I’ve got two part time jobs… and I have also started my own business. I am getting paid more than I have been and I work less hours. All seems pretty amazing. And the turning point was your podcast that finally changed a lot of my perspectives and helped me find a way to heal. Thank you so very much. Great show. Great work. “
“I came across your podcast and in the short time of binge listening I have found your insight and examples just what I was looking for in this part of my life, to help me grow, evaluate my short comings, work through problems, and come out the other end a better husband to my wife, and dad to my kids… thanks for what you do and providing the tools to grow and evolve, close the past to open the future, wishing I would have found your information sooner. Again thanks for what you do!”
“I honestly don’t have a reason to e-mail you other than to reach out and thank you earnestly from the bottom of my heart of how much insight you’ve provided for me with your show. I discovered your show this weekend, after a difficult conversation with a new dating prospect that resulted in me feeling horrible and disappointed in myself. I realized that I let a past hurt marr a present (and amazing) situation due to an emotional trigger, but couldn’t put into words how it happened and couldn’t make sense of it. I couldn’t understand it fully, and because of this I wasn’t able to start tackling it and heal. I then went on a hike by myself, and started your “Practicing Presence in a World of Past Hurts and Future Worries” episode, and you so eloquently put into words my exact feelings. I listened to that episode about 5 times in the next few days, wrote down your words, and seeing it on the page made me finally understand it. Since then, I started the “Empowerment through Vulnerability” episode and it has transformed the way I looked at my current situation. Because of your podcast, I’m on the path to accepting things outside of my control and practicing things to make sure I am able to fully comprehend things that are within my control. I have since started the “Releasing Emotional Triggers in Relationships” episode and cannot express how much clarity you’ve provided for me. I had no idea this was happening, but now I am aware. Anyway, I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude to you. I’ve never met you but you’ve been able to pinpoint things I’ve felt and explain reasons for my behavior (that sometimes even confuses me). Once I could put these things into words which you’ve done, I have been able to fully understand and comprehend it so I can start healing and growing, practicing the steps you’ve outlined towards the path to a happier self. Please don’t stop making these podcasts – you’ve changed me in a very big way and for that I sincerely am thankful. Thank you thank you thank you.”
“I’ve only discovered your podcasts a few months ago. I listen to them during my hour-long commutes to work and some evenings with my husband. I only recently started honoring myself first and my personal boundaries at work. This was the most important lesson for me because I’ve also been a “yes” person “people pleaser” like yourself and probably most of your listeners. But it totally drained me and I got sick all the time… Thanks to you and your show, everything just seems to be falling into place now, my priorities are in check and I’m so much happier and energetic. Thanks to you and your show I’ve never felt this confident, free and empowered in my entire life. It’s a wonderful feeling!”
“Hi Paul, I just wanted to let you know that I have much respect for you and your thought process and teaching style. I am someone who has and does have difficulty writing and sticking to goals. I am a highly independent minded person that craves to pave their own way and freedom and I have been self-blocked from finding my direction. I was so refreshed and blown away by your thinking and philosophy on goals and self improvement. Thank you for your work and your wisdom:) I look forward to listening and reading more of your work on conquering limitations and achieving prosperity and success in life.”
