Episode Description
In this episode, Minaa B. speaks directly to the friend who struggles with envy—the one whose chest tightens when someone shares good news, who can't quite bring themselves to celebrate a peer's success.
She explores how sibling dynamics and peer relationships taught us that success is limited, and why your friend's win can feel like your failure.
Minaa breaks down where envy comes from, why adult experiences reinforce scarcity thinking, and offers practical strategies for processing the feeling without letting shame ruin your friendships. If you've ever been the jealous friend and felt too ashamed to admit it, this episode is for you.
