189. 5 ways to stop comparing yourself to others
Social comparison is the thief of joy - it will make us question everything that we have, doubt our own abilities, steal our sense of gratitude and peace. It also sometimes feels impossible to escape, especially in our 20s when we look to others for confirmation that we are doing something right. In today's episode we break down the 5 rules you need to stop comparing yourself to others and embrace the benefits of healthy social comparison, this includes:
Don't unfollow, don't suppress, recognise and expand
Keep your judgements realistic
Do things for YOU first
Water your own grass
Comparison as a motivator
Listen now to learn how you can control your urge to compare yourself to others!

188. Why are we so indecisive?
Our inability to make decisions is wasting our time, keeping us acting from a place of fear and stuck in a life we don't want! It's also not entirely our fault and often stems from unconscious mechanisms, neuroticism and fears that we haven't recognised. In today's episode we break down:
Why you struggle to make decisions
The consequences of our chronic indecisiveness
Perfection and indecision
Choice overload
A fear of failure
How to overcome your indecisiveness using the 80/20 rule
The 'trusted advisor' method

About 2/3rds of couples start off as friends according to recent research. But developing feelings for a friend isn't always a happily ever after situation. In today's episode we break down why it is that we fall in love with our friends, the principles of attraction such as the similarity liking effect and mere exposure effect, whether to say anything or keep it to yourself, managing the pain of rejection or social loss and your best tips for protecting the friendship and your own heart.

You really heal me💯
Hi Jemma,
Thank you so much to having this show! This show really really heal me, help me find inner peace and make me feel understood ❤️
I am in the situation that you mentioned in episode 62: felt stuck, not moving and suffering about my life, my career and what I should do in the future. However your words inspire me! I did too focus on the opportunity what I got and left other opportunities behind, and now I believe it’s the time to check all the other opportunities and make myself happy and get inner peace.
Luv your show🥰 Please keep making it 🫶
PS your voice and the peaceful/calm speaking way makes me missing my life in UK so much (which is also my most calm and relax time ever so far).
