  • Comparison is the Thief of Joy

    I recently had the opportunity to speak at a conference for the young sister missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I realized the importance of developing and sharing our individual light, even if it means stepping out of our comfort zones and facing our fears. In today's episode, we explore the science and beauty of rainbows, discovering how the interplay of darkness and light creates a stunning array of colors - and uncovering how this phenomenon relates to our personal growth and happiness.

    In our pursuit of joy and personal growth, we often fall into the trap of comparing ourselves to others. This dangerous habit can quickly rob us of happiness and hinder our development. Join me as I discuss how to choose thoughts that create love, respect, and confidence, both within ourselves and in influencing others. As you learn to embrace your unique gifts and share your light, you'll be able to cast aside anything that dims your joy. Let's embark on this journey together and get ready to do something truly amazing!
