Maybe you've achieved a lot in life—on the outside, things seem successful. But deep down, there’s a sense that something’s missing. In a world filled with uncertainty and constant pressure to be perfect, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. The news, social media, and societal expectations can intensify the anxiety and make you question who you really are. Each morning, you hope that gnawing feeling will fade, but it lingers. You've tried to silence it through accomplishments, exercise, or shopping, but it’s still there. You've become skilled at keeping others happy but in doing so, you’ve lost touch with who you truly are.
