A walk through career envy, hidden anxiety, and the surprising relief of not needing to catch up
Caroline,
Sounds like you’re on the right path.
As a longtime writer, artist, actor, and musician, I can tell you this:
Comparison and competition are the death knell of creativity. Any great artist knows and understands this.
Once I fully realized that the real competition was with myself, worlds opened up for me. Not just in my creative pursuits, but on multiple levels.
🙏
Thank you so much for this—your words really landed. Honored to walk this creative journey alongside kindreds like you. 🙏✨
