English term or phrase: just as badly

Building a deeper foundation doesn’t just build stronger buildings, it builds stronger lives as well. This foundation can be the difference between your success and failure. It can make the difference not just for you, but for others who need a strong foundation just as badly.

tão seriamente quanto

Explanation:
It can make the difference not just for you, but for others who need a strong foundation just as badly.
Isso pode fazer a diferença não só para você, mas para outras pessoas que, tão seriamente quanto você, precisam de uma base sólida.

A tradução da expressão "just as badly", como outros colegas bem observaram, traz a conotação de intensidade, de severidade. Assim, uma outra maneira de traduzir a expressão poderia ser a seguinte: "tão seriamente quanto você".

Example sentence(s):

Nós queremos que você nos trate \
Nada nos atinge tão seriamente quanto aquilo que achamos de nós mesmos.
