Comparison is the thief of joy (and why)

LEXI HIDALGO
About this episode

Today we are talking about all of the ways that comparison can steal joy from your life. There is so much in the world where it easy to compare; however, we cannot allow it to take over our life. There is so much to be grateful and sometimes its takes digging down a little deeper to appreciate the life we do have.


In this episode, we talk about:

  • Ruining your self talk
  • What causes our comparison?
  • Unrealistic standards
  • The media 
  • Only posting our best moments
  • Doubt
  • Do people want to change?
  • Loving myself properly
  • Loving ourselves
  • Our egos
  • Clapping for others
  • Treating yourself with passion 
  • Appreciating the life you have



With love,

Lexi Hidalgo
