Turning Comparison into Fuel

Show Notes

Have you ever found yourself trapped in the endless cycle of comparing your journey to someone else's? Today, we're tackling the comparison topic - the good, the bad, and the unexpected. Inspired by a question from our co-host Jonathan in our Empowered Podcasting Facebook Group, we explore how comparison can sometimes motivate us to achieve more. As President Theodore Roosevelt said, "Comparison is the thief of joy" – or is it? Join us as we challenge ourselves to reflect on times when comparison spurred us to improve and learn how to turn this natural tendency into a positive force in our lives and podcast journeys.
