The Comparison Trap

We live in a world of constant comparison—fed by social media and societal pressure—that steals our joy and peace. This episode explores how comparison affects our mental health and identity. Discover how focusing on your own journey can free you from the toxic trap of measuring up.

In today’s world, constant comparison—especially through social media—can leave us feeling inadequate, anxious, and stuck. We often compare our behind-the-scenes reality to others’ highlight reels, losing our joy and gratitude. This episode looks at the impact of toxic comparison and how it warps our self-worth. Through Paul’s words in Galatians, we’re invited to pay careful attention to our own growth. Learn practical ways to shift from comparison to contentment and find satisfaction in your unique journey.
