How do you respond when someone else succeeds? Do you get a sinking feeling in your gut? Or do you react out of anger or jealousy? Or are you able to set aside those feelings and be grateful for their wins? 

Sometimes when we are confronted with others’ success we worry that there won’t be a chance for us. However, that is just not true. So how do we reframe our mindsets so that we can celebrate with others, and find our own way. 

Dr. Mark and Trever discuss the ways that comparison has impacted their own lives and how they have worked through to a different way.

Dr. Mayfield and Trever Shirin discuss the importance of honest conversation about subjects that we often avoid.
