20. Breaking Free From Comparison

In today’s episode of 3D Authenticity, we’re diving into one of the most common obstacles to self-trust and authenticity: comparison. Whether it shows up in your creative life, your relationships, your appearance, or your timeline, comparison has a way of quietly eroding your confidence and disconnecting you from your values.

We’ll explore how the brain fills in gaps with fantasy (often to our own detriment), why comparison hijacks clarity, and how to practice what I call “unfollowing the fantasy.” I’ll walk you through three powerful practices to come home to yourself when comparison strikes, including one deceptively simple journaling prompt that can shift everything.

This episode is full of insight based in somatic practices and neuroscience and it closes with a series of tangible tools to help you build a new relationship with comparison.

In this episode, Jennifer covers:

✅ Why comparison is a normal brain function and how it gets distorted

✅ How our minds use imagination and bias to create false stories about other people’s lives.

✅ The true cost of comparison through the lens of authenticity

✅ What it means to “unfollow the fantasy”

✅ Three core practices to help you return to your own truth.
