Why Comparison Keeps You Miserable (and What to Do Instead)
Description
Do you ever catch yourself scrolling social media, staring at a photo, or looking in the mirror and feeling bad? You’re not alone. In this episode we are talking about the sneaky trap of comparison, why it shows up everywhere (from group rides to photos to Strava leaderboards), why it makes you miserable, and most importantly, how to break free from it.
We discuss:
- Why comparison never motivates you, it just keeps you stuck
- How we grew up measuring ourselves against others
- The real cost of comparing your body or your progress
- Simple mindset shifts to focus on what your body can DO
- Practical tips to stop obsessing over mirrors, photos, and social media
If you’ve ever felt like you’re not fast enough, not skinny enough, or not doing “enough,” this episode will help you finally shift your focus to progress, strength, and the joy of biking without the pressure of measuring up to anyone else.
