In this Quick Spoon , Ross reflects on a moment from his conversation with business psychologist, consultant and author, Dr Joe Gray. While working in a demanding corporate role, Jo began experiencing a persistent \"flicky eye\". What seemed like a minor irritation turned out to be a sign that something deeper was going on. It's a reminder that warning signs don't always arrive as a crisis. Sometimes they show up as tension, disrupted sleep, irritability, or a feeling of being permanently switched on. Ross explores how easy it is to normalise these signals and offers a simple reflection to help us pay attention before small signs become bigger problems.
