Show Notes — Episode 65: Nobody Cares.

In this reflective solo episode of Busy Pro Fast Wellness, Alan Welch explores one of the most liberating truths for busy professionals: nobody cares — and that’s a good thing.

For years, Alan found himself worrying about what others thought — striving to fit in, seeking approval, fearing judgment. But life has a way of teaching lessons in unexpected places.


The Istanbul Story

In the early 90s, while commuting on a packed local train in Istanbul, Alan noticed that people would often stare at him simply because he looked different. One morning, he played a small game:  Alan explains the game in the podcast but in that moment, a clear realisation appeared:

People aren’t scrutinising you.
People aren’t even thinking about you.
They’re thinking about themselves.

This becomes the central message of the episode — and a powerful mental shift.

✔ How to apply this in daily life

Alan offers practical, simple ways to step out of overthinking and into confidence, integrity, and authenticity.

This episode is about the inner liberation that comes when you stop performing for an audience that isn’t actually watching.
