What did you think of this episode?

You’ve heard it before—“comparison is the thief of joy.” But is that always true?

In this episode of Resilient with Jessica Boarman, we dig into the psychology behind comparison and how it quietly steals our peace. From social media spirals to invisible scorecards, Jessica unpacks why we compare ourselves, how it impacts our self-worth, and what we can do to stop measuring our lives against someone else’s highlight reel.

She also references a compelling study, “Home Alone: Why People Believe Others’ Social Lives Are Richer Than Their Own” by Sebastian Deri, Shan Davidai, and Thomas Gilovich (Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 2017). This research shows how our comparisons are often skewed, not just because of what others are posting—but because of how our minds are wired.

Whether you’re constantly comparing your body, business, friendships, or home—this episode will leave you with practical tools and encouraging truths to help you live more authentically.

What did you think of this episode?

You’ve probably heard the parable of the two wolves — one representing fear, anger, and shame, the other hope, love, and truth. But what if you’ve been feeding the wrong one without even realizing it?

In this solo episode, Jessica invites you to slow down, reflect deeply, and listen with your heart. Through her signature mix of vulnerability and wisdom, Jessica explores the quiet ways we fuel our inner critic, the stories we tell ourselves to survive, and how to start shifting toward the version of ourselves we actually want to become.
