You're Not Behind Schedule, You're Right on Time

Ever scrolled through Instagram and watched yourself go from "I'm doing great" to "I'm a complete failure" in under 30 seconds? Yeah. Same.

In this episode, I'm getting real about something I still struggle with, even as a seven-figure photo booth business owner. Comparison. That sneaky, soul-sucking habit of looking at someone else's highlight reel and deciding that your behind-the-scenes isn't good enough. I'm talking about the time I saw a 25-year-old entrepreneur who'd sold her company for eight figures and immediately forgot that my own business was thriving, corporate clients were rolling in, and luxury weddings were booking solid through MDRN Activations and MDRN Photobooth Co.

Here's the truth: your timeline is not their timeline. And the moment you start running someone else's race, you lose sight of your own finish line. I share the stories of people who could have easily believed they were "too late" but trusted their path instead, like the Duffer Brothers who spent 20 years before creating Stranger Things, Vera Wang who designed her first wedding dress at 40, Lady Gaga who got dropped by Def Jam after just three months, and Colonel Sanders who got rejected over a thousand times before building KFC at 65 years old.

But this isn't just a pep talk. I'm giving you the exact tools I use to pull myself out of the comparison spiral and get back to building.

What You'll Learn:

  • Why comparison is stealing your joy, your focus, and your confidence as a founder

  • The five practical strategies I use when I catch myself in the comparison trap

  • How negativity bias is wired into your brain and what to do about it

  • Why celebrating other people's wins actually fuels your own growth

  • The real-life stories of icons who were "behind schedule" and still changed the world

  • How shifting your energy from scarcity to abundance directly impacts your sales, pricing, and leadership

  • Your homework assignment to start retraining your brain this week

This episode is your reminder that you're not behind. You're building. And everything you're going through right now is part of the story you'll tell when someone asks how you built it.
