Many people hear the phrase “don’t compare yourself to others.”
But what if comparison, used correctly, could actually accelerate growth?
In this episode of It's My Time Podcast, Asher talks with keynote speaker and author LaPora Lindsey about the concept of healthy social comparison—learning from others without losing your sense of self.
Drawing from her book Bottom of the Food Chain, LaPora explains how observing others can help professionals develop communication skills, improve performance, and refine their approach to leadership.
They also discuss:
✔ Using comparison intentionally
✔ Developing your own style after learning from others
✔ Lessons from martial arts and skill development
✔ Family, work, and balancing life’s responsibilities
✔ Fall traditions and creating meaningful experiences
If you’ve ever wondered how to grow without constantly feeling behind, this conversation offers a refreshing perspective
