## Resource

Comparison has a way of showing up when you’re already doing the hard work of growing. In this final episode of the year, Kelley reflects on what it really looks like to start something before you’re ready, put yourself out there, and let go of timelines that don’t belong to you. We also celebrate one year of Still Can’t Cook! From the fear of being seen to the pressure of milestones and New Year reflections, this episode is about trusting your timing, choosing movement over perfection, and stepping into 2026 with courage, clarity, and a lot less comparison.
