We’ve all done it.

Scrolled through someone’s highlight reel and felt that pang—they’ve got it all together. Maybe it was a colleague’s LinkedIn update, a friend’s new house, someone’s dream job announcement, or a holiday snapshot that just seemed too perfect. Suddenly, your own life feels… insufficient. You start questioning your progress, your pace, and your value.
