Hilary Rushford is unlike any entrepreneur I’ve ever met. She is insanely successful, smart, beautiful, and talented in many areas. But more than all of that, what I love and respect about Hilary is that she exists to help others live a better story, and become a better version of themselves. Hilary loves God, she loves […]
When I set out on a journey to ask women how they overcome the comparison trap, I noticed several themes. A big theme was love, which makes sense. Loving others, loving the journey God has called us on, and loving the person God has created us to be. While I believe comparison is a struggle all women […]
In order to overcome the comparison trap, I’m realizing how critical it is to protect my heart, especially in this social media age. I asked a few of my online-turned-real-life friends about overcoming comparison, and they offer some encouraging insight about protecting our hearts. The comparison game is a tricky one.

Let me tell you about my friend, Courtney. Courtney is not only my friend, but my colleague of 5+ years: we’ve been on the same special ed team since 2010. When you work with people over several years, you get to know them in a close and authentic way. You learn what makes them tick, and […]

And they feel grateful for the story God is calling them to live. Caroline focuses her fitness on serving God and serving others. Jacey encourages women through her writing and podcasts […]
Comparison sinks its way into attitudes and actions, and brews forth thoughts of negativity. When I am caught in that ugly, unsettled place, I pray for my heart. I pray God takes what is not of Him and humble me by the remembrance of whose I am and the purpose He breathed into my life. […]
One of the best and biggest ways I have found to help me overcome comparison is confession. It’s the first step, in my opinion, to overcoming the comparison trap. The comparison trap is a killer. I limit my time on social media. When I feel comparison creeping in, which is often, I get low. Literally. Like in […]
When we entangle our lives around the presence of God Himself, when we keep our head down in what He has for us (rather than pop our heads up to see what others have going on) an overwhelming sense of fulfillment occurs. We begin to operate more effectively in our own God-given gifts and projects […]
