Feeling behind in life can be one of the heaviest emotions to carry — especially when it’s paired with shame.In this episode of the OnegirlOnegoal Podcast, we talk honestly about comparison, timelines, and the quiet belief that everyone else is doing better than you. This is a gentle conversation for anyone who feels like they should be further along by now but doesn’t know how to stop measuring their life against others.We explore how comparison fuels shame, why feeling “behind” doesn’t mean you’ve failed, and how emotional pressure builds when life doesn’t follow expected timelines. This episode isn’t about fixing your life — it’s about understanding what you’re carrying and releasing some of the weight.If you’ve ever felt embarrassed about where you are, discouraged by other people’s progress, or quietly wondered what went wrong, this conversation is for you.

In this episode, we talk about:
– feeling behind in life and the shame that comes with it
– how comparison distorts self-worth
– why timelines don’t define your value
– giving yourself permission to move at your own paceIf this conversation helped you feel a little less alone, I’d love for you to stay connected.You can subscribe to the podcast so these conversations are here whenever you need them.
