Listen "Episode 14: Why Other People's Success Feels So Personal"
Episode Synopsis
Ever find yourself spiraling when you see another BCBA's success on social media? In this vulnerable and insightful episode, Sarah dives deep into the psychology of comparison and why other people's wins can feel like personal attacks on our worth. She shares her own struggles with comparison paralysis in the early days of building MindBodyBehavior and reveals the game-changing strategies that helped her transform comparison from a source of pain into valuable data for growth. If you've ever felt stuck comparing yourself to others in your field, this episode will help you break free from that exhausting cycle and start using other people's success as fuel for your own journey.Resources MentionedMindBodyBehavior coaching programsBusiness coaching program for BCBAsSmall Changes Coaching (Sarah's original business name)Quotes from This Episode"Comparison does not care about your logic. It does not care about your actual success. And it literally just hits you in that super vulnerable spot where all of your insecurities are living.""The market of success is not like a pie that has X number of pieces, and then if all the pieces are gone, there's none left for you. That's not how success works, but our brain still thinks it does.""Someone else's success is not commentary on your timeline. Their win is not your loss. Their breakthrough doesn't mean that you are broken.""Comparison became data for me.""When we celebrate other people's wins, it's expanding our own capacity for success. When you believe that good things can happen for them, you start believing that good things can happen for you, too."Connect with MBBBecome a Board Certified Health Coach:https://mindbodybehavior.co/board-certified-health-coachMind Body Behavior 6th Edition Supervision Curriculum:https://mindbodybehavior.co/curriculumFREE CEUS: 32 CEU Board Approved Health Coaching Program: https://mindbodybehavior.podia.com/boardhealthcoachBCBA Supervision Program Outside ASD: https://mindbodybehavior.podia.com/bcbasupervision Email: [email protected] Social Media: @sarahburby @mindbodybehavioranalysts Love the show?
