Comparison is the thief of joy, and FOMO is the enemy of you really valuing your own time, your own experience and your own perspective. It can be so easy to get caught up in what we think we SHOULD be feeling during the holiday season - especially with the way it is promoted in all the cheesy movies, TV shows and social media. So if you’re someone who struggles with this, or you know someone who does, its important to know you aren’t alone.   In fact, you fall into the majority.
