Watch first
What this is
Social comparison is hardwired — psychologist Leon Festinger showed we constantly evaluate ourselves against others. The problem? We compare our behind-the-scenes to their highlight reel. This tool uses cognitive restructuring from CBT to help you spot the comparison distortion, examine the actual evidence, and build a kinder, truer view of yourself. It takes about 7 minutes and everything stays private on your device.
Who it's for
For anyone who scrolls and sinks — who sees others' success and feels "less than." For those moments when someone else's achievement makes your own life feel small, behind, or not enough.
