Today, I'm getting personal about the feelings of inadequacy and lonliness throughout my life before sobriety. I discuss an incredible connection I found between this and my relentless need to always be the best. Trying to top every chart – be it in school, at work, or even while steering this podcast – only leads to feeling lonely and never quite enough.
Reflecting on a night during a business trip in San Francisco, I recount the solitude that brought me an unexpected sense of connection. I discuss how embracing whatever 'higher power' you understand helps fill the void inadequacy can leave behind.
Instead of eclipsing others; I try to focus on being the best version of me. Join me in this episode as I let go of the compulsion to compare and learn to cherish the immeasurable worth within. It's a call to recognize that what we hold inside is infinitely more valuable than any title or accolade.
