In this episode of the RL Podcast, we dive into FOMO — Fear of Missing Out. What is it really? Why has it become such a big deal in our generation? And more importantly… how do we break free from it?
We open up about how, in our younger years, we chased relevance — wanting to be included, seen, and “in the mix.” But as we've grown, we’ve realized something powerful: comparison is the thief of joy, and not every invitation is meant to be ours.
We talk about:
✨ The root of FOMO in social media and comparison
✨ The pressure to keep up vs. the peace of opting out
✨ How priorities shift with maturity — from being everywhere to being present
✨ Learning to choose contentment over constant comparison
If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re missing out — this one’s for you. Sometimes, the real glow-up is realizing… you’re not missing a thing. 💛
