Comparison gets a bad rap—but is it always a bad thing? In this short episode, I’m sharing how comparison can either be a tool for growth or a trap that keeps you stuck.

Inspired by Mel Robbins’ “Let Them” theory, we’ll explore how to shift from self-judgment to self-inquiry when you catch yourself comparing your life to someone else’s.

You’ll learn how to reframe comparison as a signpost toward what you want, rather than proof of what you’re lacking.

If you’ve ever felt discouraged after scrolling social media or watching someone else succeed, this episode will help you shift your mindset and use those moments as motivation—not shame.
