Do you suffer from Comparisonitis?

In this powerful episode of the Mama Work It podcast, we dive into one of the sneakiest sources of stress and self-doubt for moms: comparison. From social media highlight reels to milestone pressure, it’s easy to feel like you’re “behind” or “not enough.”

But Mama — your journey is allowed to look different.

In today’s conversation, we unpack:

• Why comparison is such a natural part of motherhood
• How social media amplifies insecurity (and how to take back control)
• What it means to honor the season you’re in
• Mindset and practical tools to shift out of comparison mode
• How your relationship with comparison impacts your kids
• A grounding, guided reframe to help you reconnect to your own path

This episode is your reminder that growth has no timeline — and you can release the pressure to compete with anyone else’s life but your own.

Key Takeaways:

• Comparison isn’t a character flaw — it’s a habit you can break.
• Curate your inputs: protect your mental health on social media.
• Honor your season — you are not meant to grow at the same pace as everyone else.
• Use tools like:
  
  • “That’s for her, this is for me.”
  • Shifting from comparison to curiosity.
  • Celebrating small victories daily.
  • Your kids learn confidence from watching you break comparison cycles.
