  <title>328. The Comparison Trap: What to Do When Everyone Else Seems Further Ahead</title>
  <description>That 300K launch you saw in your Facebook group probably cost 240K to run—but you don't see that part. 🚀 Here's the thing: comparison isn't your enemy. It's actually trying to tell you something useful. The problem is what you make it mean about yourself. Last week, a student who made $47K in her launch was ready to quit—not because she failed, but because someone else's win looked bigger on Instagram. I gave her three things that stopped the spiral completely. By morning, she'd gone from &amp;quot;I'm done&amp;quot; to mapping out her entire Q1 for 2026. If you've ever thought &amp;quot;she started after me and she's already ahead,&amp;quot; this episode is your permission slip to stop the madness. 🔥 In This Episode:   Why your brain is literally wired to compare (and why there's nothing wrong with you)   The three sneaky comparison traps quietly wrecking your momentum   A four-step comparison reset you can use when you get triggered   How to turn jealousy into strategic clarity for your business   ✨ Part of the Tuesday/Thursday crew?
