We start holding other people to higher standards than what we hold ourselves to.
Ever caught yourself endlessly scrolling through a celebrity's Instagram or getting overly invested in a colleague's personal life? You're not alone. In this eye-opening episode of 'The JoNessa Podcast', hosts Joseph and Danessa Barr sit down with Licensed Professional Counselor Kervin Searles to unravel why we're so captivated by other people's lives. From the allure of influencers to the drama of politicians, they dig into the underlying reasons behind our obsession.
The conversation touches on four main pillars: self-esteem, comparison, intelligence (both IQ and EQ), and honesty. Kervin brings his expertise to the table, offering practical advice and thought-provoking insights. One memorable moment in the episode is when Kervin says, 'We start holding other people to higher standards than what we hold ourselves to'.
This episode isn't just about identifying the problem; it's about understanding how social media exacerbates these tendencies and what we can do to shift our focus back to our own lives. If you're curious about why we care so much about others and how it impacts our mental health, this episode is a must-listen. Get ready for a conversation that's as engaging as it is enlightening.
