Do you feel anxious or “not good enough” when you compare yourself to other people? In this episode, I break down what research shows about how happy people relate to social comparison—and how you can shift from feeling threatened… to actually growing from it. I also share personal stories of when I felt completely outmatched, and the mental shifts that helped me move through it. If comparison has been fueling your anxiety, this episode will give you a different way to approach it.
What you’ll learn:
• How to stop using others as your standard
• How to turn comparison into growth
• How to protect yourself from social media comparison
