100. Is Everyone Happier Than Me? with Sarah Bragg

Fear of missing out is real and if we are honest it doesn't just affect teenagers. Many of us struggle with comparison and feel that everyone must be happier than we are. I related a lot to swirling thoughts keeping you awake. You've said FOMO is one of the main things that kept you awake at night! When did you first become aware of that tendency?

Why do you think so many of us struggle to process emotions? It's one thing to realize we need change... How did you start creating change in your life?

Something you said struck me... "Creativity combats comparison and leads to feelings of happiness." Can you tell us about that?

How has curiosity led to happiness for you?

It's vital to shift ourselves, but how can we also shift as communities?
