Read MoreEp #66: Compare and Despair
Most of us are at home right now with a lot of time on our hands. You’re most likely buffering in a few ways, but one that’s common is using things like social media, scrolling Instagram, and seeing that other people seem to be doing so much and being so productive. Your heart might sink…

Do you ever hear about a friend’s achievements and your heart sinks?
