Episode 87: A Surprising Way to Break Free From Self-Criticism & Comparing Yourself to Others

The Best of You

NOTE

Embracing Self-Acceptance and Avoiding Unhealthy Comparisons

Embracing self-acceptance involves being proud of the person God made you to be while acknowledging areas for growth. The focus should be on moving towards becoming the best version of oneself, guided by God's love, not shame. Unhealthy comparisons arise when one looks horizontally at others, leading to feelings of inferiority, envy, and self-doubt.
