Episode Summary

This week I talk about the mindset of jealousy — why it shows up so easily, how it holds us back, and what to do instead.

I talk about how comparing ourselves to others can lead us to idolize their success, dismiss our own path, and lose focus on what actually serves us. I challenge you to stop trying to be someone else and instead commit to becoming the best version of yourself.

The episode walks through why jealousy doesn't move us forward, how shifting toward self-awareness and intentional growth creates momentum, and why faith and perspective are critical when navigating hard seasons. I dive into a powerful reframing: that life happens for us, not to us — and that God is the author of each of our stories, not someone else's.

This conversation is an invitation to stop looking over the fence, stop chasing someone else's life, and start building your own with clarity, faith, and intention — across body, being, balance, and business.
