No one has their sh*t together — not your boss, not the perfect mum at school pick-up, and definitely not this psychologist with a podcast.
In this episode, I talk about why we all fall into the trap of thinking everyone else is doing better, how comparison steals our peace, and what it actually means to be “together enough.” I also share a study (Jordan et al., 2011, Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin) that shows we consistently underestimate how often other people feel negative emotions — which is why it can look like they’ve got it all figured out when they really don’t.
I’ll walk you through:
Why chasing perfection won’t make you safer or happier.How to work with your natural rhythms instead of against them.The small, practical things that really help when life feels messy.This one’s for you if you’ve ever looked around and thought, “Is it just me?” — it’s not. Nobody has their sh*t together all the time, and you don’t need to either.
🎧 Tune in while you walk, breathe, or just take a minute for yourself.
