I always lived my life with a sense of not feeling good enough and comparing myself to others and saying why are they okay why are they so much better and why am I the way that I am and that carried into crushes and

romantic relationships that carried into friendships that carried into

academic success or lack thereof my whole life was me trying to prove to myself and to others that I was okay and that I was worthy and spending my entire life not believing that to be true. Welcome to Family Life Today where we want to help you pursue the relationships that matter most.

I'm Shelby Abbott and your hosts are Dave and Ann Wilson.

You can find us at familylife today.com or on the Family Life app.

How much shame do you think you carry? Do I carry? You? Yes. Can we change the subject?

Honestly, I would have said for 45 years of my life not telling you how old I am but I'm older

in 45 I would have said zero to one I would have said that about you too yeah I thought I thought I was that guy, you know, I don't have much shame, you know, I had a pretty good upbringing and I feel pretty good about myself.

Pretty good upbringing.

Well, that's what's crazy.
