Summary

Today we’re breaking the agreement with a lie that I battle constantly: I should be further along by now. If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking that, this is the episode for you. I’m pulling the curtain back on the thing that is quietly crushing us. Maybe you feel like you’re behind in your relationships or career or finances or healing or whatever.
