Shannon Murphy founder and creator of Everything Unsaid question card decks for dating, couples and friends

Meet the Founder

Hi, I'm Shannon! Originally from Chicago, I've been living in the San Diego area for the last few years.

I have my Bachelor's in Psychology, a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and School Counseling, and an Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy Certificate.

Ever since I was a little girl, I knew I wanted to - that I was meant to - help people. In my young naivety, I'd often reply, "save the world". This was in part because I was so familiar with the pain of loss and trauma from such a young age, and then also because it really just was, and is, my nature and purpose.

As a more realistic (yet still optimistic and immensely compassionate) adult, I now know the power and impact of the "smaller" things.

I've been working as a mental health and healing practitioner one-on-one with clients for years and it's the nuanced, subtle, day-to-day type of shifts, changes, and wins that build upon each other over time. So then all of a sudden one day you can look back and see just how far you've healed, grown, and evolved - at your pace, on your own unique timeline.

That is precisely why I am so passionate about these question card decks.

Who you choose to spend your time with greatly impacts every single area of your life.

Everything Unsaid helps you choose wisely and create healthy, meaningful connections.

A Practical Tool for Real, Lasting Relationships

These conversation card decks are not "just questions". They are a realistic, practical, supportive, and affordable tool to transform your relationship to yourself and others.

Connecting with others can feel scary and complex. It brings up so much - insecurities, core wounds, expectations, judgments, confusion, and fear. But it also is so meaningful, fun, empowering, supportive, special, exciting, and so much more.

My hope, wish, and intention for you is to use Everything Unsaid to find your people and to find yourself.

Intentional Design, Powerful Impact

The design is thoughtfully minimal yet elevated, creating space for presence, honesty, and depth. By removing distraction, what truly matters is able to come forward.

The flowing lines throughout the design represent the threads that connect us, the unspoken emotions and stories beneath the surface.

The layered, blended patterns on the back of the cards reflect the depth where experiences meet and connection is formed through openness and vulnerability.

So many of us were never taught how to connect in healthy, emotionally safe ways. These decks exist to gently change that because deeper connection isn’t something we stumble into, it’s something we practice.

Brand Values

  • Curiosity

    Coming from a place of curiosity, rather than judgement, is incredibly powerful. This leaves so much room to learn, grow and connect. Ask questions, listen.

  • Compassion

    Openness, understanding and kindness – for others and yourself (while of course having healthy boundaries, too). We've all needed to be on the receiving end of this, so we know how powerful it is to give it to others, too.

  • Depth & Vulnerability

    There’s nothing quite like finding people you feel safe enough to share the things you normally might not, and be fully loved and accepted for it. Allow yourself to go there with the people you feel safe with and create that level of connection you've always wanted.

  • Authenticity

    Show up as who you are – not who you think you should be. This is the best way to find connections where you can be yourself, be seen and loved as you truly are, and create a life that actually feels like yours.

  • Intention & Integrity

    Living with awareness, actively co-creating your life, rather than simply responding to it. Being intentional about how you spend your time and who you spend it with.

  • Play & Joy

    The best combo? Deep talks one minute, being silly and laughing the next. The whole point is joy. Embrace that child-like wonder and get out and play!
