Ever feel like you’re falling behind—without even knowing who you’re racing? In this episode, Dave Flenagan and Zoe Hirsch explore Dr. Stef Huber’s article on the harmful effects of comparison, especially in competitive work environments. Dr. Huber shares her own experience with envy and rivalry in the workplace to highlight the pointlessness of comparing ourselves to others. Everyone starts with different resources, paths, and challenges—so comparisons are rarely fair, and often damaging. She also cites research showing how competitive settings negatively impact mental health. Instead, Dr. Huber encourages shifting focus inward: Measure your growth against who you were yesterday, not who someone else is today. Dave and Zoe unpack why this mindset is so liberating, and how it can transform not just productivity, but well-being. 🎧 Listen now—and stop competing in a race that was never yours to run.
