#127: How to Stop Comparing Yourself to Others


Listen Later

In today's episode, we're talking all about comparison. Comparison is one of those things that we're all susceptible to at some point or another: we compare ourselves based on appearance, personality, success, relationships. It can sometimes seem like there's a neverending list of reasons to feel dissatisfied or inadequate when we look at our lives relative to someone else's. 

And yet, while comparison is arguably a universal human experience, it's undeniable that some of us struggle with the comparison trap more than others - sometimes to the point where it feels debilitating and destructive to our sense of self.

We'll cover:

  • why some people are more susceptible to the comparison trap than others
  • how this tendency interfaces with other struggles like unworthiness, jealousy, anxious attachment, and fear of abandonment
  • how building our self-worth can help us to shift focus away from others and build more genuine self-confidence
