Have you ever disliked a woman who hadn't actually done anything to you? Maybe her confidence irritated you, her success made you uncomfortable, or you found yourself picking apart her life without really understanding why. What if the problem isn't her, but what her life brings up in you? In this week's episode of The Mid Week Tease, Adelle Onyango unpacks jealousy, envy, and the uncomfortable ways comparison can turn into shame, insecurity, and sometimes hostility toward other women. We explore the difference between jealousy and envy, why another woman's success can make us question our own worth, and how the expectations placed on women can make us see one another as competition. Most importantly, Adelle shares seven practical ways to navigate jealousy without projecting it onto other women. Because feeling jealous doesn't make you a bad person. But what you do with that feeling matters. In this episode, we explore: The psychological difference between jealousy and envy. How comparison can trigger shame, fear, and insecurity. Why we sometimes criticise women whose lives reflect something we desire. How to celebrate a friend while navigating your own disappointment. Seven practical ways to understand and manage jealousy. How to turn comparison into a better understanding of what you want for yourself.
