What’s This Episode All About?

Today, your host Kevin Lowe dives deep into the all-too-common issue of comparing ourselves to others. What leads us to crave an existence that is not our own? How do we harness this desire positively? As Kevin unravels these questions, he shares a compelling analogy that likens our identity to a house—one that is ever-evolving and uniquely our own. Everyone's life on social media is nothing more than a view of their home from the street... take a peek inside and you'll see it's just as crazy and messed up as everyone elses!


3 Main Takeaways:
  1. Learn to identify the aspects of others’ lives that genuinely inspire you, rather than feeling diminished by them.
  2. Discover the concept of identity exploration and the power of ‘trying on’ different traits to express yourself authentically.
  3. Cultivate self-compassion as you navigate your journey of personal growth, ultimately realizing that your unique path is where your true strength lies.


Ready to redefine your perspective on comparison and discover the strength within yourself? Tune in to this episode and take the first step towards embracing your own internal awesomeness!
