Creative Nectar: Talks & Tools for Heart-Centered Living in a Changing World

How to Overcome "Comparison Despair"

Jenny Hahn & Stephanie Gray Season 1 Episode 13

It’s perfectly natural to compare - our brains are wired for it. However, when we insert  value judgments into the mix, things can get messy. Comparing ourselves to another or others (creatively or otherwise) and believing we are somehow less than can dampen our creative spark  both inside and outside the studio. Join Jenny and Steph as they dive deeper into this topic and share stories and practices to help manage "comparison despair".
