episode 052 - envy vs jealousy


Listen Later

We use "jealousy" as a catch-all for anything that feels gross and competitive. But envy and jealousy are actually two completely different experiences. One is giving you useful information about what you want. The other? That's fear wearing a really convincing disguise. Today we're unpacking both, how they show up in friendships (the part nobody talks about), and what to actually do when you feel them.

In This Episode:

→ The actual difference between envy and jealousy (and why language matters)

→ Envy is information. Jealousy is protection.

→ How both show up in friendships: promotions, new friends, weddings, glow ups

→ The Cool Girl monologue and friendship performance

→ Amadeus, Othello, Gone Girl

→ What social media has done to both emotions

→ What to do when you feel either one
