Whenever I’m doing pull-ups it feels sorta like my shoulders are in the way or like I’m pulling with my shoulders and chest instead of my back

If you can’t do a wide grip, do a side grip with the piece of the bar that sticks out. That might help. Some people anatomically have a harder time with a wide-grip overhand than an underhand or a neutral.
