With the rise of social media, we have a direct line of sight into the lives of our favorite celebrities, influencers, and even our peers in life and business.
This can be dangerous.
Seeing what other people have can bring up feelings of jealousy, inadequacy or a slew of other negative emotions.
And we’ve all been there.
Over the years, since starting City Girl Savings, I’ve managed to combat the competition mindset that comes with seeing what others are doing.
