Do You Ever Compare Pain?
Manage episode 430660372 series 3327267
Have you ever felt guilty for being upset because someone else has it worse? What if I told you that comparing struggles is as irrational as comparing joys? On today's episode I tackle the concept of the "hierarchy of suffering," inspired by my recent Instagram reel and the wisdom of therapist Lori Gottlieb. This episode is a compassionate exploration of why every emotion you experience, no matter how seemingly small, is valid and worthy of acknowledgment. By flipping the script on how we view our pain versus others', I emphasize that your feelings are real and deserve to be felt, without comparison or judgment.
And, as a special FREE bonus, I want to give you my "6 Journal Prompts To Coach Yourself To A Better Life In 6 Days!"
These prompts are perfect if you:
🎯 Feel lost in direction.
📉 Battle feelings of inadequacy or constant comparison.
😕 Experience restlessness.
📆 Find goal-setting or motivation challenging.
😐 Simply feel 'meh'.
Designed to dismantle obstacles, reshape your mindset, and cement unwavering confidence, these prompts are scarce gems in a sea of generic advice. 🚧🧠
