Episode Notes:

Reminders to help when we get into comparative thinking

Your path is your own.

You are where you need to be in this moment.

You are good enough and worthy enough to achieve your desires.

There is room for everyone to achieve their dreams and one person’s success doesn’t take away from your success.

You don’t have to conform to anyone else’s timeline.

Trust that life is unfolding for you as it is.

Social media reminders:

Know your limits and your triggers.
Feel free to unfollow or mute people you are following any time.
Have creative affirmations for yourself to counteract those negative thoughts.
Replace internet time with self-care practices.
Create boundaries with your social media time.
Social media is highlight reel.
