The comparison spiral gets louder after divorce, and it can feel like your body is sounding an alarm you can’t switch off. I talk about why your brain compares in the first place, how that survival tool gets misapplied to emotional pain, and what to do when your nervous system treats a hard feeling as a life-or-death threat. Using clear examples from everyday life and social media, I’ll unpack the cultural scripts that tell you a “real family” looks one way and success only counts if it fits a narrow mold.
 
You’ll learn a simple, repeatable practice to reclaim your peace. You’ll hear how facts are neutral, stories add emotional overwhelm, and the body calms when you return to what is actually true. I also talk about the myth of perfection, how memory glamorizes the past, and why redefining family, happiness, and stability on your own terms helps you let go of shame.
 
If your feed is full of highlight reels and your mind keeps whispering you’re behind, you’ll leave with grounded tools to stop the spiral and a gentler way to relate to your thoughts. Think of it as a nervous system reboot for post-divorce healing: less panic, more clarity, and a kinder voice inside your head. Ready to step out of comparison and into your own definition of enough?
