\\u201cThe worst loneliness is not to be comfortable with yourself.\\u201d I read this Mark Twain quote in Lucy Sheridan\\u2019s new and utterly brilliant book \\u2018The Comparison Cure\\u2019 and it really resonated with me, because we can all get stuck in a compare and despair space. Lucy\\u2019s a great friend of Gurls Talk, and I loved having her back on the podcast as she really is a deity of building up self-worth.

We talk about her incredible new book which is a much-needed guide for today\\u2019s world, \\xa0helping us overcome ranking ourselves against others and breaking the comparison trap. The book feels like a retreat, as she guides us on how to nurture ourselves and shares tools on how to be less \\u2018them\\u2019 and more you. We talk about our shadow side, choice anxiety and how being in the neutral zone is sexy.

Lucy is next-level positivity, so enjoy the conversation, be kind to yourselves, and mad, mad, mad amounts of love.
