#475 Comparison After Breast Cancer - What Jealousy May Be Trying to Tell You

from Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach · host Laura Lummer

Have you ever looked at another woman's life and felt that quiet ache of why her and not me? Most of us have, and most of us judge ourselves for it before we ask what that feeling is really pointing to. In this episode, I open up about a recent day when I was just plain tired of being the person with cancer. I let myself feel it honestly, without rushing to a gratitude list, and then I found the question underneath it that actually moved me forward. We look at what jealousy and envy are often hiding, why they are not the character flaws we assume, and how believing someone else simply had it easier can quietly protect us from taking a single step toward what we want. I also walk through the difference between an explanation and an excuse, because one keeps the door open and the other closes it. You will leave with a simple process you can use the next time comparison shows up. Her success does not take anything from you. Your life is still yours to build, right where you are standing.   Resources Mentioned: Work with Laura: https://www.thebreastcancerrecoverycoach.com/health  Download for iPhone:  https://apps.apple.com/us/app/kajabi/id1485646310 Download for Android:  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kajabi.kajabiapp&hl=en_US   Let's Connect!
