Hey there! In this week\u2019s tea talk I share my peach-blueberry tea in the iconic green mug. In my life update, I navigate school, social life, breakdowns, and the future. I introduce the topic of comparison with a few disclaimers, approaches, and the episode\u2019s structure. Then, I share my story growing up, personal distinctions, intelectual realisations, and my thoughts on the typical advice. Next, I talk about how things improved for me: focusing on myself, appreciating others\u2019 beauty, and positive affirmations. I move on to reflecting on today\u2019s society: how hurt we are and how we can fix it. I wrap up with my takeaways and share my current favourites in routines, driving, and nail care.\n\nTO GET DIRECTLY TO THE CONTENT, SKIP TO: 10:35\n\n\nFOLLOW THE PODCAST\u2019S INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/theasteapodcast?igshid=r04b2760fkdl\nCONTACT ME THROUGH: theasteapodcast@gmail.com (for business inquiries, sponsorships or to tell me what you think about this podcast!)\nSEND ME A VOICE MESSAGE: https://anchor.fm/th351a-beaury/message\nCHECK OUT THE DESIGNERS OF MY COVER ART: https://instagram.com/sofiarrublacreative?igshid=1xtsd1w69zkkl\nhttps://instagram.com/cuerpobaldio?igshid=1jq5cb59nm2z\nListen to my other podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/3RhYyCBLVwBuNimne4zVCO?si=AG_LzDsuQdqBYedSmFOkfQ\nFollow my TikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMJwKjr2L/ \nSTART YOUR PODCAST NOW BY HEADING TO anchor.fm\n\n\nCHECK OUT THE THINGS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE (IN ORDER OF APPEARANCE):\nListen to my episode on self worth (On Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/episode/2WsqikIHbrj7qyZnAFrkli?si=ilZyttP8Tl2BabeOZorAZw\nTikTok about confidence and being interested: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMedeHTc6/\nListen to my episode on toxic friendships (on Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/episode/2R23Ex7NadxPLRkYFbF4ol?si=I83sGc6JSQ-clU_ivHnJRQ\nCheck out @versaci podcast (on Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/show/0pFvE6QV9RbqbeCINH2D9f?si=hgDugdFdT3WIrOjLMQ_CrQ\n\nHERE ARE SOME QUOTES I LIKED FROM THIS WEEK\u2019S EPISODE:\n15:30 = \u201cI feel like I\u2019ve always been drawn to the ways other people do things\u201d\n18:40 = \u201cI feel like I could be doing more\u201d\n20:00 = \u201cComparison is the surface of the problem, to fix it, you need to work on all the underlying insecurities\u201d\n20:20 = \u201cComparison is the manifestation of deeper insecurities\u201d\n20:50 = \u201cComparison keeps you on your toes and prevents you from getting too comfortable\u201d\n23:10 = \u201cGrowing up, you get to know the world on a deeper level\u201d\n23:15 = \u201cI used to think everything was perfect, and when I realised it wasn\u2019t, I understood that I didn\u2019t need to be perfect either\u201d\n24:00 = \u201cI got so busy that at the end of the day I knew that I had done everything humanely possible for me, and that was enough\u201d\n24:59 = \u201cSomebody else\u2019s beauty is not the lack of your own\u201d\n25:15 = \u201cThere\u2019s room for so many smart people in the world\u201d\n25:45 = \u201cStop trying to be interesting and start being interested\u201d (@spencer.barbosa)\n26:09 = \u201cI know how much I did\u201d\n27:00 = \u201cThese people I idealised weren\u2019t perfect themselves\u201d\n28:00 = \u201cIf my friends are succeeding, I shouldn\u2019t be ashamed of being myself around them, I can be inspired instead\u201d\n29:30 = \u201cThere\u2019s so much hurt inside of us\u201d\n30:35 = \u201cComparison leads people to think that those next to you are so much more\u201d\n32:25 = \u201cSince we\u2019ve become so debilitated, it leads us to take everything so personally and get defensive\u201d\n33:10 = \u201cWorking on myself made me care less about other people\u201d\n\n\nThanks for tuning in, have a beautiful week!
