ENCORE: The Mom Comparison Trap

This episode originally aired awhile back, but it's one I come back to again and again, especially during seasons when I notice comparison creeping in and stealing my peace.

So today, I'm bringing it back as an encore.

Whether you're scrolling social media or watching another mom at school drop-off, comparison is one of the easiest traps to fall into, and one of the hardest to climb out of. It can leave you feeling like you're behind, not doing enough, or like everyone else has something figured out that you don't.

But that's not the truth.

In this episode, I'm sharing practical and powerful way to shift out of that cycle of "compare and despair" and come back to your own lane, with confidence.

You'll learn:

  • How to recognize the comparison thoughts that quietly drain your confidence.
  • The thought that helps you break the cycle (without pretending everything's fine)
  • Real-life examples of how to shift from self-doubt to self-compassion
  • A practice you can start this week to feel more grounded in who you are as a mom
  • đź’Ś As a gift this season, I’m also sharing my Comparison Trap Workbook. A free,  resource to help you go deeper.

    It includes:

    • Journal prompts

    • Bridge thoughts

    • Reflection space

    • and more!
