Comparison in Motherhood with Shannon Popkin

"Me-free Living in a Measure-Up World"

Women compare constantly

“On social media, at work, in the neighborhood, or at church, they glance sideways, wondering, How do I measure up? Comparison might drive one woman to push herself to exhaustion, and another to shrink back in shame. Either way, comparing leads to self-focused bondage, distraction, and isolation.

Is there a way to stop comparing and be free?”

Guest Bio

“Author and speaker, Shannon Popkin invites fellow Comparison Girls to consider Jesus’s response to those weighed down with measure-up concerns: He invited them to live me-free.

With humor and vulnerability, Shannon shares about her own measure-up fears and get-ahead pride in Comparison Girl: Lessons from Jesus on Me-Free Living in a Measure-Up World. Throughout this study of the conversations Jesus had and the stories he shared with people who also were comparing, Shannon invites women to choose Jesus’s me-free way of living by lifting others up and pouring themselves out.”
