Ambitious-ish: Success Without Burnout for Smart, Driven Women

24. Comparison Is Inevitable, so Make It Useful


Listen Later

You've heard of the comparison trap, or comparing and despairing, where you relentlessly pit yourself against others, only to end up feeling envious, resentful, anxious, and maybe even ashamed.

We believe comparison doesn't need to be a problem, and it can actually be incredibly useful.

 

 

Tune in this week to discover how to break out of the comparison trap. We discuss why the answer here isn't to stop comparing yourself to others or give up on up-leveling. Instead, we show you how to work through your comparison tendency, so you can start responding to it in an empowering way.
