🔥 “I’ve suffered a great many catastrophes in my life… most of them never happened.” — Mark Twain

If that line hit you in the chest…you’re not alone.

Most of the danger you feel every day isn’t real — it’s imagined, rehearsed, and replayed in your mind until your body believes it.

And here’s the wild part: Your brain reacts to imagined threats exactly the same way it reacts to real ones.

So your nervous system keeps firing.
Your cortisol stays high.
Your sleep suffers.
Your muscles tighten.
Your hormones shift.
Your identity gets shaped around fear… not truth.

This is the hidden root of anxiety — the one no one talks about.

🎙️ In this raw and powerful episode of the Uncover Your Eyes Podcast, I sit down with Author & Transformation Coach to break down how:

👉 Emotional suppression rewires your brain
👉 Overthinking keeps you in chronic fight-or-flight
👉 Unprocessed fear becomes identity
👉 Generational trauma gets passed down silently
👉 Your ego hijacks relationships, decisions, and self-worth

🎯 You’ll uncover:

✅ Why “put your oxygen mask on first” is a scientific truth
✅ How to tell the difference between conflict vs. true gaslighting
✅ What ego actually is — and what ego death means
✅ How the body stores grief + how to release it safely
✅ The #1 pattern fueling today’s mental health crisis
✅ Two simple skills that can change your emotional life forever
✅ The daily boundary Keith uses to protect his wellbeing

💬 WANT THE TWO SKILLS?
Comment “CHANGE” and I’ll DM you Keith’s 2 Simple Skills that can transform your life forever.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone in healthcare, trauma work, wellness, or anyone exhausted from living in survival mode.

✨ Healing begins the moment you stop believing every catastrophe your mind creates — and start Uncovering Your Eyes.

🚨 Your Ego Is Quietly Running Your Entire Life — And You Don’t Even Realize It.

Every fight.
Every fear.
Every unhealthy relationship pattern.
Every moment you feel attacked, misunderstood, reactive, or “not yourself.”

That’s not your true self — that’s your ego hijacking your brain.

Most people go their entire lives never realizing that ego, not awareness, is making their decisions…until they crash, burn, and wonder why everything feels so hard.

In this eye-opening episode of the Uncover Your Eyes Podcast, I sit down with Author & Transformation Coach to uncover:

⚠️ Emotional suppression rewires your brain
⚠️ Ego shapes your identity without your consent
⚠️ Trauma gets inherited across generations
⚠️ Fear becomes your operating system instead of truth
⚠️ And how you can break the cycle before it repeats itself

📩 Want the science-backed takeaways from this episode? Comment “EGO” and I’ll DM them to you. (Warning: You may rethink your entire identity after reading them.)

This episode is a must-listen for anyone in healthcare, mental health, trauma-informed work, wellness, or anyone who’s been carrying emotional weight they’ve never had the words or space to name.

✨ Healing starts with understanding — and with Uncovering Your Eyes.

🚨 Your Spatial Awareness Is Shrinking… and You Don’t Even Feel It.

Hours of screen time quietly collapse your visual field, shrink your periphery, and train your brain to live in a tiny 2D box.
Most people don’t realize it’s happening until they start tripping more, misjudging space, missing cues, or feeling “off” in their body.

Before this becomes your new normal, try this 1-minute reversal drill:

1️⃣ Look straight ahead
2️⃣ Extend your arms to the sides like a T
3️⃣ Wiggle your fingers
4️⃣ Slowly bring your hands back until they’re just at the edge of your side vision
5️⃣ Hold for 10–20 seconds and repeat 3-5x/day

This simple reset reopens the eye–brain pathways screens shut down — the ones responsible for spatial mapping, balance, calm alertness, and how confidently you move through the world.

📩 Want to know if screens have already affected YOUR spatial awareness? Comment “SAPD” and I’ll send you the quick self-test. (Warning: Most people are shocked by their results.)

Strengthening spatial awareness isn’t about doing more — it’s about noticing more.

The way you walk, move, and hold your body all shape how confidently you navigate the world.

Here are 4 everyday habits that can help improve spatial awareness:
1️⃣ Mindful walking — bringing attention to your steps and posture.
2️⃣ Balance practice — simple movements that build stability and coordination.
3️⃣ Body scanning — reconnecting your brain to your body’s position in space.
4️⃣ Slow, intentional movement — stretching or gentle flow that improves direction and alignment.

These small daily practices help your mind and body work together with more clarity, grounding, and confidence.

I had the opportunity to speak with about the common causes of bloodshot eyes, from screen time and eye strain to dry eyes. While often harmless, redness can sometimes signal more serious issues like infections, inflammation, or glaucoma.

If redness comes with symptoms like headaches, nausea, or vision changes, it’s crucial to see an eye doctor ASAP.

I had the pleasure of speaking with , where we talked about the rising popularity of coloured contact lenses, largely influenced by K-pop idols.

The article explores different types of coloured contacts, including “big eye” circle lenses, enhancement tints, and opaque tints, as well as how social media, pop culture, and a desire for self-expression (at any age) are driving this trend.

I recently spoke to about the Renpho Eye Massager and whether it lives up to the hype. This device offers five modes, including vibration, compression, and heated massage, plus Bluetooth capabilities.

I shared my thoughts on its potential benefits, like stimulating tear production, reducing inflammation, and relaxing the muscles around the eyes. It may even improve blood circulation, reduce puffiness, and help with dark circles—making it a useful tool for those with mild dry eye symptoms.
