If you&rsquo;re starting this year feeling stuck, late, or behind in life, this episode gently reminds you that you&rsquo;re not late, you&rsquo;re right where you&rsquo;re supposed to be. Jay unpacks a quiet truth many of us carry: almost everyone feels behind in love, career, money, or purpose, even when it looks like they&rsquo;re winning. We compare what we&rsquo;re struggling with privately to what others show publicly and end up measuring ourselves by timelines that were never real to begin with. When you see only the surface of others&rsquo; success, it&rsquo;s easy to believe you&rsquo;re behind when in reality, you&rsquo;re simply on a different path. Jay reframes what &ldquo;behind&rdquo; really means. There is no universal schedule for success, fulfillment, or clarity. Most people don&rsquo;t find their direction until much later than we&rsquo;re led to believe, and emotional maturity, financial stability, and creative breakthroughs often arrive in midlife, not early adulthood. The pressure you feel isn&rsquo;t proof of failure, it&rsquo;s often the result of unrealistic expectations you set when you didn&rsquo;t yet know who you&rsquo;d become. Feeling lost, especially in your twenties and thirties, isn&rsquo;t a flaw, it&rsquo;s part of being human. In this episode, you'll learn: How to Stop Feeling Behind in Life How to Break Free from Comparison How to Build Confidence in Your Own Season How to Let Go of Outdated Success Timelines How to Turn Invisible Growth into Strength How to Move Forward Without Rushing Decisions Life isn&rsquo;t asking you to move faster, it&rsquo;s asking you to move honestly. Trust the season you&rsquo;re in, honor the lessons it&rsquo;s teaching you, and keep showing up with consistency and self-belief.
