Do you ever catch yourself believing your child's behavior or performance is a direct reflection of you as a mom? Maybe you compare how quickly they're learning to read or how many words they're saying with the kids around them. Or maybe, when they act out, you feel like you've failed—and the yelling, controlling, and striving begins. Striving in motherhood is sneaky. It shows up in the way we compare, the way we push, and the way we try to control our kids—often because we're carrying pressure that God never asked us to carry. In this episode, I walk you through how striving sneaks into motherhood, the damage it causes, and most importantly, how to step into peace, freedom, and trust in God as you raise your kids.   love, Brittany    Ready to become a peaceful wife and Mama?

Let's be honest—almost all of us, at some point, have looked around and thought, “Shouldn't I be further along by now?”Maybe it's your career. Maybe it's relationships. Maybe it's that quiet voice that says, “Everyone else seems to have it figured out… what's wrong with me?”We live in a world that constantly feeds us this invisible checklist: Graduate by this age. Build a career by that age. Find your person, buy the house, have the kids, chase the milestones—on a timeline that, honestly, no one can fully explain… but everyone feels pressured to follow.And when life doesn't go according to that script, it's easy to feel like you're falling behind.But here's the truth that rarely gets said out loud: You're not behind. You're just on a different path.There is no one-size-fits-all timeline for a meaningful life. There is no universal checklist for success, joy, or fulfillment.So in today's episode, we're unpacking the pressure to “keep up,” challenging the myth of being “late,” and reminding you of something deeply important: Your timing is not off. Your path isn't broken. You're exactly where you need to be to become who you're meant to be.Let's get into it.Follow me on instagram for more inspiring, motivational and uplifting content.

Have you ever looked around and thought, “I should be further along by now”? That comparison trap is something we all fall into — especially as women navigating the big transitions of midlife, like empty nest or retirement. But today, I want to offer you a powerful reframe through the lens of the Law of Relativity. In this episode, we'll explore how this universal law reminds us that nothing in life is inherently good or bad, ahead or behind — it only seems that way when we compare it to something else. I share a fresh take on self-image, the illusion of success, and how shifting our internal perspective can immediately shift how we feel about our journey. You'll learn why comparison distorts your truth, how to spot when you're misusing this law, and how to come back to center — where your unique strengths, divine timing, and purpose already exist. ✨ Here's what we cover in this episode: How to know when you're misusing the Law of Relativity A self-image example around aging that might just change how you see yourself What happens when you shift your comparisons inward instead of outward How to stop seeing yourself as behind — and start honoring where you are If you've ever felt discouraged by where you are in life or business, this episode will remind you: you're not behind — you're right on time.

you're looking at them so much you can't see what God gave you (stop comparing yourself)

If your thoughts are always about someone else with the greatest job, or the most incredible business, or the most amazing second husband, then you are trying to tell yourself something. It's not that your life sucks and you should feel bad about it. It's that you want what she has, so go get it for yourself.    It sounds like you want to raise your standards, try something new, or explore something better than what you already have. It's time to stop comparing yourself and start manifesting. And if you need some help getting started, this episode is for you.    In this week's episode, we're talking about how to stop comparing yourself to others and start manifesting your goals. You can't reach your goals if you don't set any. And you can't contribute to your own success if you don't work at it. Your comparison is telling you that it's time to glow up. Listen to this week's episode to learn how to get out of your comfort zone and start manifesting your biggest goals yet!  Resources Mentioned: EP. 185: The BFF Method: Manifest Anything by Rewiring Your Mind Follow Erika on: Instagram @‌theerikacruzTikTok @‌theerikacruzLinkedIn Website: http://www.theerikacruz.com How to work with Erika: Sign up for the free webinar “ You're Not Stuck, You're Scared” here!

This Mother's Day, we're reminding women to stop comparing their calling to others. You were intentionally and beautifully created by God for a unique purpose. Comparison distracts and discourages you from walking confidently in what you were made to do. True success is being faithful where God has placed you—loving your family, honoring Him, and using your voice, gifts, and story to bless others.

Why do we keep comparing AI to humans? Jaron Lanier — virtual reality pioneer, digital philosopher, and the author of several best-selling books on technology — thinks that we should stop. In his view, technology is only valuable if it has beneficiaries. So instead of asking "What can AI do?," we should be asking, "What can AI do for us?" In today's episode, Jaron and Sean discuss a humanist approach to AI and how changing our understanding of AI tools could change how we use, develop, and improve them.
