Comparison has a way of stealing our joy.


In this episode, we’re talking about the tension many of us feel when it seems like everyone else is happy—but us. Why do we compare our joy to others? And what can we do when comparison leaves us feeling behind? Together, we’ll explore practical ways to reframe our thinking and stop looking to our left and right for validation.


Plus, we’re introducing new voices to the podcast this season! You’ll hear from three professional therapists who will help us process our emotions and discover healthy ways to navigate them.
