In this powerful and honest episode, Lisa shares a candid conversation that took place during a book club she hosted for fellow coaches. When one respected peer opened up about feeling jealous after learning he had written a book—something he had long aspired to do—it sparked a meaningful dialogue about comparison, creativity, and energetic awareness.

Together, they explore:

• How jealousy can be a mirror for what we long to express
• The transformational shift from FOMO to curiosity
• What the Jungian shadow reveals about the parts of ourselves we’ve hidden
• Why inspiration often hides in the places we resist most

Whether you’re navigating your own creative dreams or noticing your reactions to someone else’s success, this episode is a reminder that our emotions can be teachers—and that the space between comparison and curiosity is rich with possibility.

🎧 Listen now and reflect on what your own moments of envy might be trying to show you.
