S2 E9 - How to Stop Comparing Yourself to Others
How to Stop Comparing Yourself to Others - Without Losing Your Self-Worth
This episode is for you if:
comparison keeps sneaking in. Maybe you scroll through social media and feel like everyone else is ahead while you’re falling behind. You might find yourself shifting your goals based on what others are doing or doubting your progress because it doesn’t look like theirs. If you often feel stuck in self-doubt when someone else succeeds or you’re craving clarity on what your own path even looks like, you’re in the right place.
What we cover:
🔹 Why comparison feels so automatic We explain the science behind why your brain compares and why it’s not your fault.
🔹 How social media hijacks your sense of identity We unpack the dopamine loops, highlight reels and why scrolling often leaves you feeling worse.
🔹 Real-life stories We share honest moments when we fell into the comparison trap and what helped us out.
🔹 What your comparison is trying to tell you Instead of spiralling, we show you how to use comparison as helpful feedback.
🔹 Tools to stop comparing and start owning your path Practical steps you can take today — like a “wins bank,” curating your feed, and defining your version of success.
