Episode description

Today, we’re throwing it back to a classic self-development topic that I don’t think gets talked about enough anymore: how to avoid falling into the comparison trap.

Our brains trick us into unfair judgments by comparing our full behind-the-scenes to others' carefully curated highlights—it’s a quick way to developing low self-worth. We’ll never be able to rid ourselves of comparison completely, but there are a few strategies and mindset reframes we can try out to reorient ourselves in relation to comparison, and ultimately, live a happier life.
