Hello, World!

Could something in your life work better?

Take two minutes and answer these 10 questions. There are no right or wrong answers. Think about your life as it is today and choose the answer that feels most accurate.

1. Do you sometimes feel alone or disconnected, even when you're with people you care about?

2. Do you sometimes have difficulty telling the people closest to you what you're really feeling or what you need?

3. Do you sometimes feel unheard, unseen, or unappreciated in important relationships?

4. Do you wish you felt closer or more connected to your partner, children, family, or friends?

5. Do you sometimes find it easier to handle things on your own than to ask someone for help or support?

6. Do you sometimes react in ways you later regret, such as becoming angry, defensive, shutting down, or withdrawing?

7. Are there behaviors or patterns you've tried to change but find yourself repeating?

8. Growing up, did you learn that there were feelings you shouldn't show, needs you shouldn't have, or things you had to do to be accepted or valued?

9. Do criticism, rejection, conflict, or feeling disrespected sometimes affect you more strongly than you would like?

10. Do you sometimes feel driven by expectations about who you're supposed to be rather than by what actually feels right or important to you?
