Why do we compare ourselves to others?
In this thought-provoking episode of the podcast, hosts Eldar, Toliy, and Mike tackle the age-old question of why humans compare themselves to others, often leading to self-doubt, low self-esteem, and emotional suffering. Drawing from personal anecdotes like rock climbing struggles and social media facades, they explore how unfair comparisons stem from illusions, unexamined desires, and flawed perceptions of reality. The discussion evolves into deeper insights on turning comparison into a tool for growth, the role of accountability and ownership in personal development, and avoiding pity parties through humility and self-awareness. Packed with raw honesty, analogies, and philosophical twists, the episode challenges listeners to question their attachments and embrace fair self-assessment for true empowerment.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
