I used to be that person. Raging jealousy. Constant suspicion. Side-eyeing my partner’s female friendships like it was my full-time job.

Then I healed my attachment style… and everything changed.

These days, jealousy barely shows up in my romantic relationship. But surprise, it still sneaks into friendships, work dynamics, and comparison spirals when I’m not paying attention.

In this episode, we’re unpacking what jealousy is actually about. It’s distrust, old betrayal wounds, unmet needs, and the sneaky habit of outsourcing your worth through comparison.

We’ll talk about:

• Why jealousy is rooted in fear and childhood conditioning

• The unmet needs hiding underneath jealousy (attention, loyalty, being chosen)

• How comparison quietly steals your joy and self-trust

• What happens when you stop measuring yourself against others

• The kind of freedom and unconditional love that exists on the other side of jealousy

If jealousy has ever made you feel ashamed, reactive, or “too much,” this episode will help you understand it without judging yourself.
