When startup peer groups become performance spaces instead of support systems

Our startup cohort meets every month and we're all struggling but everyone presents like they're crushing it and I'm tired of pretending my numbers are better than they are. We're supposed to be helping each other but instead we're performing success for people who are probably performing it right back.
