EPISODE 4: When Comparison Steals Your Confidence (and Why I Stuck with Zumba Anyway)
🎧 Smart, Successful and Stressed with Jazmin Pursell
Hi lovely professional mums — welcome back to Episode 4!
In this episode, I’m sharing a very real (and a little funny) story from my very first Zumba class.
Spoiler: I was way out of my comfort zone and almost didn’t go back. I’ll be talking all about comparison — how it creeps in when we’re doing something new, how it holds us back, and how we can reframe it to help us grow.
Whether it’s in your professional life, motherhood, or just trying something new like Zumba, comparison can make you feel like you’re not good enough. But I’m here to tell you that you don’t need to be perfect to keep showing up.
🎥 This episode is also available in video format on my YouTube channel if you’d like to watch and chat along more interactively.
If this resonates with you, I’d love to hear from you — DM me and let me know where comparison has popped up in your life, and how you’ve moved through it.
Thanks so much for listening! 💛

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.
