[Time Stamp 37:25]: “You don’t really have competition, you only have people you think are competition.” With being so connected with people in this day and age also comes with comparisons, however it is important to know that you are only in competition with yourself. The ladies discuss how your strengths are in their own niche in this world, and it all depends on how you use them to solve your problems.
