Do you feel behind in life? Do you wrestle with feelings of...if I just had:That jobThat houseThat relationshipThat moneyThen I'd be....golden (insert sunglasses emoji).I wrestle with these feelings consistently, and while they've waned in nature as I've gotten older, I'm still every so often hit with that swirl of anxiety, fear and shame, that my life just won't ever look like how I want it to look.

Do you feel behind in life? Do you wrestle with feelings of...if I just had:

That job
That house
That relationship
That money

Then I'd be....golden (insert sunglasses emoji).

I wrestle with these feelings consistently, and while they've waned in nature as I've gotten older, I'm still every so often hit with that swirl of anxiety, fear and shame, that my life just won't ever look like how I want it to look. But more so, that it won't take a shape that others deem good and successful.

I've touched on this subject before, but I wanted to come out it from a different angle, with some new tactics thrown in, at a point in the year when we can all be a little (overly, perhaps) focused on BIG GOALS and MAKING THINGS HAPPEN. I'm all for it, but we want to check the motivation. Where is it coming from? Is it driven by genuine desire or a wound?

This episode will resonate with you if you:

Fear you'll never meet your person and will be chronically single
Can't shake the feeling that if you just had this ONE THING (be it love, be it money), everything would be ok
Struggle to cope with the feelings of 'being behind' and either number out with social media or go through feverish spells of dating

Enjoy! xx Clara
