    On this episode of “Tommy Talk,” Tommy discusses how to try to break the habit of comparing yourself to other people. Do you ever catch yourself endlessly scrolling on social media, wondering why you don’t have what someone else has personally or professionally? Comparison Syndrome is very real — we all go through some version of it. But it’s quite unhealthy and can often be toxic. The time we spend comparing ourselves to other people is time that we can instead use to invest in ourselves. Here is my journey with comparison syndrome, and some ways to help you break the habit.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Friendships should be a source of joy – people who just make life lighter. But not all friendships feel that way. Some leave us drained, insecure, or questioning our worth. And it can be hard to admit when a friendship has become toxic. Learning to recognise when a friendship is no longer healthy, and how to navigate that shift, is a crucial part of protecting your well-being and building a life that feels aligned.In this episode, we unpack the psychology of toxic friendships: why we hold onto them, what they cost us, and how to create relationships that support rather than drain us. We explore: • Why good friendships are so crucial in our 20s• The 5 types of toxic friendships• Warning signs of toxicity• How to recognise positive friendship dynamics• Why we stay in toxic friendships• How to manage friendship breakups and the emotional fallout If you’ve ever felt trapped in a friendship that leaves you more exhausted than supported, this episode is for you.

    In today's episode, I invite you to slow down and show gratitude for the people who've been showing up for you — the friend, coworker, or acquaintance who prays for you, listens to you, checks in, or just makes you laugh. Reaffirming is about nurturing what's already good. It's a reminder that friendship doesn't always need fixing or finding — sometimes it just needs watering. Think of one current relationship that feels good and right. Then, do something to affirm that friendship today: 1. Send a voice note or text saying how much you appreciate her. 2. Write a short note or card. 3. Plan a coffee date, walk, or prayer call. It doesn't have to be fancy — it just has to be genuine.

    What if the problem isn't your friends—but the way you measure friendship? We dive into an honest, practical reset on how to build relationships that actually form us, not just flatter us. We explore the subtle consumer mindset that creeps into our closest bonds—keeping score, expecting equitableness on our terms, and treating people like faucets for our needs. Then we turn the lens: friendship as spiritual formation. That means discomfort isn't a red flag to quit; it's the wind that strengthens the tree. From listening to pain without slipping into courtroom roles, to inviting third-party feedback when we get called out, we map simple, doable practices that help us repair quickly and grow deeper trust.You'll hear vivid metaphors to anchor the change: friends as targets to aim love at, not sources to drain; living like a river instead of a reservoir; and the Johnny Appleseed approach to generously sowing encouragement wherever you go. We also spotlight the “Brittany principle”: the people most loved- often love the most—reminding us that popularity isn't the point, presence is. If you're ready to move from “Do I get enough here?” to “How can I give first without keeping score?”, this conversation will meet you right where you are and nudge you forward with grace.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a hopeful nudge, and leave a quick review so more people can find Habit Lab.

    Every summer morning, a dedicated group of open-water swimmers — each over the age of 60 — gathers at West Landing in Hampton Bays to swim the calm waters of Peconic Bay. But this ritual is about much more than fitness. Over the years, these daily swims have become a source of deep friendship, connection and joy. This week on the podcast, the editors are joined by filmmaker Doug Gallo and his mother Chris, one of the swimmers featured in his short documentary “West Landing,” which is screening at this year's Hamptons International Film Festival. Together, Doug and Chris share how the film came to life — and reflect on the tight-knit community that's formed in the bay, one swim at a time.

    Friendship as an adult can be complicated — especially when you're an ambitious woman balancing work, motherhood, and a full life. That's why this week's guest, Nina Badzin, has spent over a decade studying, writing about, and talking about what makes friendships work (and why they sometimes don't). Nina is the host of the Dear Nina podcast, a Top 1% charted show that's been featured in The Wall Street Journal, TIME, NPR, and The Washington Post. She's made it her mission to help women rethink how we approach adult friendships with grace, intention, and a healthy dose of realism. In this conversation, Molly and Nina unpack what it really takes to maintain friendship as ambitious women, from how to handle rejection to why it's always your turn to reach out. What You'll Hear in This Episode: Why rejection is a natural (and essential) part of life and friendship The importance of “freshman energy” and physically showing up in new communities How to overcome fear of initiation  and why it's always your turn to make the first move Why ambitious women often struggle to prioritize friendship and how to change that Actionable ways to cultivate connection right where you are Key Quotes: “If we as adults could learn to have a softer reaction to rejection, we would try more things and friendships wouldn't feel so high-stakes.” – Nina Badzin “The people with the happiest social lives accept that it is always their turn.

    There is a solution for the loneliness epidemic. In our increasingly isolated society, establishing meaningful friendships can be a critical step in alleviating the pervasive feeling of loneliness. While life transitions, such as moving to a new area or changing jobs, can disrupt established connections, they also provide opportunities to cultivate new relationships that align with our values. Developing these friendships requires time, effort, and intentionality. The Importance of Meaningful Friendships In light of today's epidemic of loneliness, which affects many despite the facade of being well-connected digitally, nurturing meaningful friendships is vital. These friendships are not merely social interactions; they are pivotal to our emotional health and well-being. True friends provide support, joy, and alignment with our values, which are essential for maintaining a stable and happy life. The Journey to Building Friendships Building meaningful friendships is a journey. It is not just about logging 200 hours with someone to establish a connection. It's about engaging in experiences, conversations, and activities that forge deep, meaningful bonds. This journey involves vulnerability, openness, and an eagerness to discover potential friends in settings such as church groups, sports clubs, or book clubs. Overcoming Barriers in Friendship Despite a busy lifestyle or fears of rejection, it's crucial to break down barriers that impede the development of friendships. Many are afraid to reach out, fearing interruption or rejection. However, these barriers can be overcome by simple actions, such as initiating conversations, setting up coffee dates, or sharing a simple gesture of appreciation. Fostering Friendships Across Different Life Stages Friendships evolve over time and across life stages. Whether you are a young mom or someone who transitions through different life phases, recognizing the need for friendships at each stage is crucial. Groups like playgroups or community activities can be excellent ways to introduce new friends who share common values and interests.   Read the full show notes and access all links.    Additional Resources Finding Your Superpowers: leaning into personal values & dropping comparison - Episode 339  The solution to emotional isolation - Episode 209    Website for Misty Hughes

    Today, we remember and celebrate the extraordinary life of Jilly Cooper, who has sadly passed away at the age of 88. A literary icon, Jilly captured hearts and imaginations with her wit, warmth, and unmistakable voice. Her novels, especially beloved titles like Riders and Rivals, sold over 11 million copies in the UK alone and most recently inspired the hit Disney+ adaptation that introduced her work to a whole new generation. I had the immense privilege of speaking with Jilly just last October. She was everything I'd hoped she would be - funny, sharp, generous and inspiring. Today, in tribute to her legacy and the joy she brought to so many, I'm honoured to share the conversation with you again. ___________________________________________________________________ Dame Jilly Cooper. What a legend. For the uninitiated (where have you been?) she's a journalist and author most famous for her bestselling Rutshire Chronicle series which includes Riders, Polo and Rivals - the latter of which has now made into a hugely popular TV series starring David Tennant, Danny Dyer and Katherine Parkinson. In the past, Dame Jilly's books have been unfairly dismissed as mere ‘bonkbusters', charting the sex lives of the upper classes. But, as I discover, there's much more to both her writing - and to her. We talk about her failures with technology, why she wishes she could throw more things away, as well as the terrifying time she lost an entire manuscript on the number 28 bus and had to rewrite it. Plus her experiences of interviewing Margaret Thatcher, her friendship with the Queen, her obsession with beautiful people and ‘macho men' - and why she'd wholeheartedly recommend adoption to others. Thank you Dame Jilly. A total sport (but we knew that). ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Remembering Dame Gili Cooper 03:43 Personal Reflections and Literary Success 07:37 Exploring Themes of Masculinity and Beauty 10:15 Family, Loss, and Resilience 11:28 Failures and Fertility Challenges 21:18 Dieting and Body Image 25:12 Interviewing Margaret Thatcher 26:46 Technical Challenges and Writing Process 30:27 Friendship and Social Media
