In this episode of You Are More, we delve into the often unspoken struggles of comparing our lives to others' highlight reels on social media. In an age where scrolling through Instagram or Facebook can leave us feeling inadequate or overwhelmed, it's crucial to recognize the traps of comparison and embrace the reality that we all have different capacities and paths in life.

Let's have an honest and insightful conversation about the detrimental effects of social media comparison and the importance of cultivating a mindset of contentment with our own lives. Learn how to set healthy boundaries with social media and curate your online experience to prioritize content that uplifts and inspires you rather than feeds into feelings of inadequacy.

Explore the concept of "capacity" and how it varies from person to person, even within the same season of life. Whether you're juggling parenthood, a demanding career, or other responsibilities, this episode reminds you that it's okay to operate at your own pace and prioritize based on your season and your capacity along the way.

It's time to break free from the social media traps and embrace the fullness of who you are. Take inventory, remember Galatians 1:10, and take a social media break!
