    Season 6 Episode 277: What "Being Average: Really Means- And Why It's "Okay"

    Welcome to another episode of "Thoughts Of An Average Joe." Today Taroy talks about what it means to be really average since he is the "Average Joe." In this episode, we challenge society’s obsession with being “exceptional” and explore what it truly means to be average in today’s world. Taroy breaks down the pressures we all feel to constantly outperform, glow up, or go viral — and asks the honest question: What’s so wrong with just being good enough? Taroy dives into how social media skews our sense of self-worth, why hustle culture makes people feel like failures, and how embracing your average journey can actually bring peace, confidence, and balance. Being average doesn’t mean you’re not valuable — it means you're human, relatable, and real. This is a reminder to listeners that success isn’t always flashy, and that living a fulfilling life on your own terms — without constantly comparing yourself — is more than okay. It's powerful.

From career goals and home ownership to relationships and starting families, society often pushes a strict timeline of what success should look like leaving many of us feeling behind, anxious, or like we’re failing at adulthood.
