Episode 192. The Self-Comparison Trap: Thriving in the Age of Social Media
Welcome to another episode of the In-situ health and fitness podcast! In this episode, we delve into the concept of self-comparison. We explore how our interactions with others shape our self-perception and behaviour, driven by biological, developmental, and social psychology explanations. By examining downward, upward, and lateral comparisons, we uncover how these dynamics influence our self-esteem and motivation. We also address the impact of social media on our fitness goals and offer practical strategies for combating negative self-comparisons.
Join us as we discuss how to build a positive self-image, leverage community support, and overcome the fear of judgment in public fitness spaces. This episode is packed with insights and tips to help you measure success through personal progress rather than social comparison.
