I recorded this sitting in my car after scrolling through my feed and feeling that familiar ping of jealousy. Another mom creator had just landed a massive brand deal. I pulled out my phone and started talking about the weird unspoken competition in the parenting space. It's a completely unfiltered rant about choosing to celebrate other women instead of letting envy win.
If you watch my hands in the lower corner of the frame, you'll notice I'm twisting my rings around like crazy. That's my absolute tell for when I feel exposed. Talking about professional jealousy is deeply uncomfortable. My honest verdict is that practicing this mindset is much harder than preaching it. We all claim we love community. Cheering for someone who gets the exact opportunity you wanted is a different beast entirely.
The numbers on this one tell a fascinating story. The video only reached about three hundred people because the algorithm completely buried it. The engagement rate was nearly twenty-two percent though. Almost every single person who watched it either left a thoughtful comment or forwarded it to a friend. It hit a very raw nerve for women trying to build something online. We're all exhausted from pretending we never get competitive. Admitting that ugly truth out loud gave everyone else permission to drop the act.
