    Why you feel competitive with your friends (even when you love them) | jealousy, insecurity, feeling behind

    In Snack Size Deep Dive 7, we talk about one of the most uncomfortable truths in adult friendships: loving your friends deeply while secretly feeling competitive, jealous, or resentful when they get things you want.

    This short, snackable episode unpacks why these feelings are far more common than we admit and why they don’t mean you’re a bad friend or a bad person. Through psychology-backed insights on social comparison, self-esteem, scarcity mindset, and identity threat, you’ll learn why your friends’ success can feel like a personal failure, and how to turn that discomfort into self-awareness instead of shame.

    In this episode, we cover:

    • Why jealousy and love can coexist
    • The psychology behind comparison in close friendships
    • How low self-worth fuels competitiveness
    • Why your friends’ wins trigger insecurity
    • How to stop letting comparison damage meaningful relationships

  • Why you feel safer imagining than in reality (maladaptive daydreaming) | avoidance, escapism

    Why you feel safer imagining than in reality (maladaptive daydreaming) | avoidance, escapism
    Jan 14 2026

    Send us a text

    Why does imagining life feel safer than actually living it?

    In Snack Size Deep Dive 5, we explore maladaptive daydreaming: the habit of retreating into imagined scenarios, worst-case outcomes, or fantasy worlds as a way to cope with discomfort, anxiety, or trauma.

    If real life feels unsafe, overwhelming, or unpredictable, your mind may have learned to escape inward. While imagination can feel protective, relying on it too heavily can quietly keep you stuck, disconnected, and avoiding growth.

    If you struggle with:

    • Avoidance and escapism
    • Living in your head instead of the present
    • Social anxiety or fear of embarrassment
    • Feeling safer imagining life than participating in it
    • Wanting to heal but feeling stuck

    This episode is for you.
