Ep. 115: Is comparison stealing your joy? Feat. Karen Aerts

January 29, 2021

Welcome back to the podcast today. I’m super excited to have a very, very special guest and she gets two varies because she’s my twin sister, Karen Aerts, and she’s also a new coach inside our program. She has developed amazing coaching around habits and really implementing the actions that you need to take in order to create the life and the business that you want.
I invited her on the show today because I thought who better to bring on the show with me then the one person I’ve been compared to my entire life. One thing that we’re going to talk about is the one comparison that actually gets you the most stuck. It’s probably not the one you think it is. So we’re going to dive into what comparison is, what it looks like, how we do it, and then what we can do to get out of it so that we can really just focus on what we want in our lives and what’s true for us and what we want to create.
