Solving problems May 28 2026
<p>In M Scott Pecks book <strong>“The Road Less Traveled </strong> <strong>“ </strong>he points out that the cause of most mental illness is avoidance of problems</p><p>The fact of the matter is problems just don’t go away ……</p><p> they just get bigger and bigger.</p><p>Often times they even reach the point where problems can affect one’s mental and physical health</p><p>Its difficult to argue that many people who unhappy are so because they avoid their problems.</p><p>Once one actually admits they have a problem—- which is the first step to many self improvement programs like the 12 step program etc </p><p>One has to actually quantify and figure exactly what the problem is so they can come up with the right solution.</p><p><br></p><p>In fact Albert Einstein was supposedly to have said “ "If I had one hour to save the world, I would spend fifty-five minutes defining the problem, and only five minutes finding the solution."</p><p><br></p><p>One person who focused on helping people and businesses first quantify their problems then solve them and move forward strategically is Darren de Vink.</p><p>Darren is a business consultant who has helped organisations improve communication, structure, and problem solving — and today he joins us to help listeners better manage challenges in both life and business.</p>

Feeling Stuck May 18 2026
<p>How is it possible that we have more technology, more convenience, more comfort, and more opportunity than any generation before us… yet so many people feel emotionally drained, anxious, disconnected, and lost?</p><p><br></p><p>Australians are now working some of the longest and most pressured weeks in decades. Mental health conditions are estimated to cost the Australian economy more than $220 billion every year through lost productivity, absenteeism, and reduced wellbeing.</p><p><br></p><p>At the same time, rates of anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and stress-related illness continue to rise. The World Health Organization officially classified burnout as an occupational phenomenon caused by chronic unmanaged stress.</p><p><br></p><p>But this conversation goes deeper than just work.</p><p><br></p><p>Because many people aren’t simply tired physically… they’re tired emotionally.</p><p><br></p><p>Tired of carrying expectations. Tired of trying to hold everything together. Tired of smiling on the outside while internally feeling flat, uncertain, or disconnected from who they used to be.</p><p><br></p><p>And what makes it even harder is that many of the people struggling the most are often the high performers: the business owners, the parents, the leaders, the carers, the people everybody else depends upon.</p><p><br></p><p>On the surface they may appear successful. But internally many are quietly asking: “Why do I feel empty when my life looks fine?” “How did I lose myself?” “Is this really how life is supposed to feel?”</p><p><br></p><p>Yet despite feeling this way… many people still don’t change.</p><p><br></p><p>Why?</p><p><br></p><p>Sometimes it’s fear. Fear of uncertainty. Fear of judgment. Fear of failure. Or even fear that things may never improve.</p><p><br></p><p>Sometimes it’s because people have lived under pressure for so long that stress begins to feel normal.</p><p><br></p><p>And sometimes people simply lose belief — belief that they can change, belief that they deserve better, or belief that it’s possible to rebuild their confidence, peace, purpose, and identity.</p><p><br></p><p>But tonight’s conversation is also about hope.</p><p><br></p><p>Because people can change. Lives can change. Mindsets can change. Patterns can change.</p><p><br></p><p>People can rebuild themselves emotionally, mentally, and spiritually — even after years of burnout, overwhelm, disappointment, or feeling stuck.</p><p><br></p><p>One Person who is dedicated herself to helping people who feel trapped by emotional pressure in modern life… who seem to stay stay stuck… and help them take practical steps that can help them regain clarity, resilience, confidence, and meaning is Jodie MacDonald founder of sunshine within mindset and self development Coaching and she joins us here today </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>

Finding balance May 11 2026
<p>Tonight on Change the World with Matt McQuinley, we are going to tackle something millions of people are feeling… but many struggle to explain.</p><p><br></p><p>We live in the most technologically advanced and connected time in human history — yet people have never seemed more overwhelmed, exhausted, distracted, and stressed.</p><p><br></p><p>In both Australia and the United States, burnout and chronic stress are reaching alarming levels.</p><p><br></p><p>Recent Australian studies found up to 40% of workers are experiencing burnout, while nearly 90% report work-related stress or emotional strain. </p><p><br></p><p>But the issue goes far beyond the workplace.</p><p><br></p><p>In Australia, government data shows nearly 60% of people experienced at least one major personal stressor in the last 12 months. Financial pressure, relationship strain, rising living costs, loneliness, lack of time, and emotional exhaustion are becoming part of everyday life for millions of people. </p><p><br></p><p>Studies also show one in five Australian adults experiences high or very high psychological distress, with younger Australians and families under financial pressure hit particularly hard. </p><p><br></p><p>And perhaps the most revealing of all… is the fact that </p><p><br></p><p>People are busier than ever, yet many feel they’re falling further behind.</p><p><br></p><p>We rush from obligation to obligation. Work to bills. Emails to appointments. Kids’ activities to social pressures. Notifications to deadlines.</p><p><br></p><p>And somewhere in the middle of all that busyness… many people feel like they’re losing themselves.</p><p><br></p><p>Medical experts warn chronic stress is linked to anxiety, depression, heart disease, sleep disorders, emotional burnout, and declining relationships. </p><p>Four in ten Australians are now not getting enough sleep — one of the clearest signs of a society struggling to slow down. </p><p><br></p><p>We’ve become busy — but not necessarily fulfilled. Connected — but often isolated. Productive — but emotionally exhausted.</p><p><br></p><p>So tonight, we ask: How did we get here? Why do so many people feel trapped in survival mode? And most importantly… how do we reclaim balance, purpose, peace, and control in a world that never seems to slow down?</p><p><br></p><p>Our person who has struggled with these challenges and feels he has come out the other side, joins us here tonight and he’d like to share with you what he has learned and what has helped him.</p><p><br></p><p>Karl Palin is. The founder and director of one big heart.</p><p>He also is the owner of Australia’s National Yoga Studio of the Year 2023 & 2025</p><p><br></p>
