#32: On today’s episode I’m going to have a real and raw conversation about comparison. I don’t know about you but with the rise of social media, I find myself comparing my life to others. Everything from my hair to the vacations I do or don’t take.

I know comparison will always exist. I’ve accepted it as part of human nature. I thought we could take this time right now for me to share my struggles and just have a real conversation. No condemnation or teaching here just my out loud thinking as I process how I’m managing my comparison.
