The Comparison Trap

Send us Fan MailThere's a woman on your phone right now who is doing more, looking better, and building something bigger than you. Or at least — that's what your brain tells you at 9 PM when you're scrolling instead of sleeping.In this episode, Leah Pitzenberger gets honest about the comparison spiral — why we do it, what it actually costs us, and why social media didn't create the problem (it just gave it a really good delivery system). She talks about the specific kind of comparison that doesn't feel like jealousy, it feels like information. Like evidence that you're behind. And she makes the case that the only metric that has ever mattered is the one you keep ignoring: are you moving toward your own life, or someone else's?This one is for the woman who has ever closed an app feeling worse than when she opened it.
