The wisdom in envy - 28

Published on: 26th February, 2022

Envy is when we want what another person has.

Personally, I love feeling pangs of envy because it is teaching me more about myself.

Rather than focus on what the person other has, I use it as a tool to look deeper within myself and recognise that whatever they have is available for me too.

About the Podcast

The Star Monroe Show
Interrogating human behavior, modern life and what we think we know about ourselves.
You think you know why you do what you do.
I’m not so sure.

The Star Monroe Show is where I interrogate the psychology underneath how we live, love, work, desire, succeed, spend, age, fuck up and start again.

From what’s happening in my own life and the patterns I see in my work, to celebrity, relationships, money, beauty, ambition, power and whatever the internet is losing its mind over this week — nothing is particularly off limits.

I’m interested in what we think is happening, what might actually be happening underneath, and what becomes visible when we stay with the enquiry instead of rushing to explain, judge or fix what we find.

Why do we care so much?
What are we really reacting to?
What aren’t we seeing?
What if that isn’t the problem?

This is an ongoing exploration of why we do the things we do — and what we might discover about ourselves when we become curious enough to look.
