Jealousy is a feeling that often lurks in the shadows of our minds. From comparing ourselves to others on social media to feeling envious of a friend's success, jealousy can keep us stuck in a cycle of negativity. Join us as we unpack why jealousy is such a common emotion for women and explore how we can navigate it with honesty, a little humor, and empathy.

Listen to learn more about:

• Jealousy vs. envy (Thanks to Andrea loving to "word nerd" out!).
• Why leaning into jealousy can be useful.
• How social media can enhance jealousy.
• How jealousy can make us feel powerless.
• How jealousy is introduced to women at a younger age than men.
• How jealousy can lead us to inaccurate comparisons that keep us stuck in a negative cycle.

Plus, Andrea challenges a quote while Jessica stands to defend it! You don't want to miss this honest conversation.
