About this listen
In Episode 22 of Dealing with Divorce, we confront one of the most subtle but destructive habits that can delay healing—comparison. Whether it’s comparing your timeline to your ex’s, your parenting to someone else’s, or your life to the filtered perfection of social media, the weight of comparison can quietly sabotage your peace.
This episode is your reminder that healing isn’t a competition, and your journey doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s to be meaningful.
You’ll learn:
Why comparison becomes so common after divorce
How assumptions about others’ lives distort your healing process
Practical ways to shift your focus back to what matters: your growth
How to find peace in your own pace, progress, and process
You don’t need to keep up—you just need to keep going. One honest, courageous step at a time.
