TRIGGERED! When you compare yourself to others (and feel inadequate or not good enough)

Inner Work: A Spiritual Growth Podcast - A podcast by Josephine Hardman, PhD

A very common trigger that most of us experience is comparing ourselves to others and then feeling worse about ourselves. This is also called "compare & despair", and it can bring up intense feelings of inadequacy, not being good enough, and impostor syndrome.  In this episode, I dive into this particular trigger and the different ways in which it might be showing up in your life. I share what has helped me become un-triggered and shift my experience with "compare & despair" into a doorway for expansion and for identifying my true desires. I also delve into the shadow side of comparing ourselves to others and offer suggestions for working with that shadow. I hope this will be helpful for you, wherever you are on the healing path!
