How to address competitive dynamics in peer support groups

Our startup cohort meets monthly and everyone shares wins and challenges, but there's this weird competition thing happening where we're all downplaying our struggles and overselling our progress. We started as genuine support for each other but now it feels like performance and I don't think anyone knows how to get back to real talk.

More people experience this than they realize.
