“Female Competitiveness Ranges From Overtly Cat Fighting Over a Man to Those Damaging Little Thoughts You Have About Why She’s Prettier, Taller, or Thinner Than You”
My name is Christy Whitman and I am a bestselling author, speaker, and certified Law of Attraction coach. Rebecca and I (I am the one on the right) are the leading experts on eliminating female competitiveness. Together we have spent over five years researching the effects of female competitiveness. We have implemented this information in our therapy and coaching practice and have seen many women’s lives change. Rebecca and I created this page for women everywhere to help them overcome the detrimental effects of female competitiveness, this includes you too! Before I show you what female competitiveness is and why it may be the one thing that is causing you pain in your life, I want to share with you one of my personal experiences with it and how I came to the turning point in my life and realized how much female competitiveness was sabotaging my life everyday, and how it may be doing the same to you and your life. Several years ago, I realized that I needed to make some major changes. No matter how much I was accomplishing at home and at work, no matter how successful I felt in my relationships – or in my life in general – there was always something inside of me that was constantly waiting to undermine my joy. It was preventing me from feeling confident and content on a consistent basis, and it was threatening to destroy all the good that I was striving to create in my life. It was during a business trip that this realization all came crashing down on me, and I became painfully aware of the competitive nature of this horrible game I was playing. Before leaving for the trip, I was feeling excited about my life. I was confident, centered, successful and I was feeling beautiful. I suddenly felt desperate, not good enough, and completely depressed. What happened? So what was causing all this pain? It is what we call Female Competitiveness.
Female competitiveness? Isn’t that when women on daytime television start slapping each other over some man? Images of conniving soap opera stars plotting the demise of their female nemesis enter our minds. You may be saying to yourself right now I don’t do that! So, this site isn’t for me right?” You probably don’t BECAUSE these examples are only the most extreme and crazy cases of female competitiveness. That’s why Jerry Springer has a ridiculous call for “lesbian homeless women on crack who only consider dating their mother’s boyfriends and all other men are off-limits”
Unfortunately, when you see this on TV it can cause you to make erroneous assumptions. Like this kind of thing happens very often in the real world. That’s just not true. Tragically there’s a far more sinister version of female competitiveness that is so insidious and so commonplace you probably aren’t even aware of it! That’s because it happens subconsciously and then manifests itself in your life in all sorts of negative ways.
Ask any woman you know to define female competitiveness, and she’ll probably give you a blank stare for a few moments then say “I don’t know, fighting over a man”, or she will have a misguided picture of drama and divas. Ask her if she ever engages in it and she will definitely deny it. The idea of female competitiveness usually brings to mind the dramatic images of a Hollywood soap opera – complete with hair pulling, name-calling cat fights etc. In reality, competitiveness is mostly subtle like a silent little killer in the shadows hidden from your view slowly eating away your value and self esteem, 99% of the time causing detrimental effects in your life. Since it almost never shows up in the most outrageous forms you’re damaged by it without even knowing it is victimizing you, the hidden little killer taunting you from the shadows with its continuous whispers you can’t seem to silence. This snide little killer affects nearly every woman in one form or another whether you’re aware of it or not. It may be affecting you right this very second!
But first… A recent scientific study, done at the University of Redlands and published in the Evolutionary Psychology Journal, defined female competitiveness as: female-female competitiveness is the desire or behavior of one woman or girl to possess more of some commodity than other women or girls. Research indicates the kinds of commodities females compete for are: an attractive appearance, social status, group leadership, etc.
Cures Your Vulnerability Right Now
Now to my HARROWING experience with female competitiveness… During this time I’d also been studying and applying the Law of Attraction with great results. the better I felt, the more prosperity and success I was drawing to myself so I knew I had to eliminate the destructive effects ‘female competitiveness’ was having in my life. Driving to this business conference, I remember reflecting on the blessings in my life. Everything was feeling absolutely perfect that day, including the location of the meeting. One of my favorite places in California is the Napa Valley, and I was looking forward to enjoying the wonderful dining events at the restaurants and wineries in the area. I was on top of the world feeling so empowered and joyful. Then my favorite song came on the radio and I just had to throw my head back and happily burst out singing. I just couldn’t wait to get to the conference and see my co-workers because I’d become close with them. I walked into the lobby to find them all gathered together, talking excitedly. After we greeted one another with hugs all around, the attention turned to one of my friends, because she’d recently become engaged. She was absolutely glowing – and enthusiastically telling everyone about her wonderful fiancé and all of their extravagant wedding plans. She gushed on and on, reliving the romantic way he proposed to her, where they were, how he dropped down to one knee, and then she dramatically held out her hand. All eyes fell on her gorgeous diamond engagement ring. Everyone began talking at once, congratulating her, hugging her, and admiring her ring. Inconspicuously I looked down at my diamond engagement ring, and I made the first comparisons. Wow, my ring did not come close to hers in size or beauty. What a Big Mistake to Even Start This Comparison!
My other friends kept going on and on about the ring, and the wedding plans, her fabulous fiancé, and their new and exciting life together. Each time they complimented her it felt like a dagger inside of me, slowly shifting my enthusiasm and joy to anger, pain and self-pity. What A Frightening Discovery…Somehow Her Happiness Could Affect and Take Away the Happiness I’d Felt Only Moments Before.
I hated feeling this way but at the time was powerless to change it. “I couldn’t believe that she was dominating the conversation, and commanding everyone’s attention”, my inner voice raged. I wanted to shout, “Enough about her. What about me?” My competitive mind began racing, and I started taking inventory of, not just her, but of all my girlfriends, assessing everything from their handbags to their hair color. I was no longer part of the energy and excitement of the group. I had become an Energy Vampire which I hate! I stood alone in my mind. It was as if I now held a scorecard in my head, “Well, I definitely have a cuter hair style than this one. But that one’s outfit is much nicer.” The more I focused on them, the more I felt my blood boiling with bitterness and resentment. The joy and confidence I had felt moments before was gone, sucked out of me. The goodwill and excitement I had planned on sharing with my friends had vanished. Just earlier, I had been looking forward to showing them my new bracelet, and sharing my Even when one of my friends noticed my bracelet and complimented me, I just blew it off – because in my mind, it was nothing compared to “The rock”. Now my stomach was in knots. I knew that if I didn’t escape soon, I would explode in jealousy. In just a matter of minutes, my joyful mood and self-confidence had evaporated, and I was now consumed with jealousy. I was devastated, and I knew I had to get away fast! Alone in the privacy of my hotel room, I completely fell apart. I felt both furious at them for the emotions which they had elicited in me, and horrible about myself for feeling this way towards my friends. “What kind of person thinks this way about the people they care for?” I asked myself. “What is wrong with me, feeling such malice towards those I love?” I plunged completely and totally into feelings of bitterness and self-loathing. At the same time, that competitive mind of mine was still on overdrive. “My friends had such amazing qualities and they were so thin and confident,” it told me. Such incredible beauty- and such stunning jewelry, how was I supposed to keep up?”
Just moments before I was on top of the world. The world will keep spinning with or without me. What had changed in my situation which caused me to feel so bad? The answer was nothing had changed for me…only in me. I had been feeling so satisfied with my weight, until I noticed my co-worker’s size-two body. I had been feeling confident and successful about my professional accomplishments, until I learned that another co-worker had achieved a much-coveted award. I loved my relationship at the time and was so proud of the beautiful engagement ring he had given me, until I saw my friend’s new diamond ring. And before long, everything about their lives seemed so much better than anything in mine. I wanted, desperately, to go back to feeling happy and content again. And yet there was a part of me that wanted to lash out. I called my partner and told him how I was feeling, but I couldn’t stop there. I told him that I now wanted a bigger ring. He was naturally, crushed because he had been so proud and excited when he gave it to me. Now, I was telling him that it wasn’t good enough. I could not even remember what contentment felt like at this point, or how to get it back And the worst part was I knew this bitterness, envy and self-loathing was sending a clear message to the Universe, and I knew what I would be receiving in return…more of the same! Giving into the overwhelming emotions that consumed me, I wept uncontrollably. Finally, desperate and completely lost, I reached out to my friend and co-author, Rebecca. We talked at length about this devastating experience, and discussed how I had shifted so quickly from feeling strong and appreciative, to feeling bitter and inadequate. As we spoke, she described this concept of female competitiveness to me and she helped me to see the destructive affects it was wreaking in my life. By falling into this trap, I was contributing to my own unhappiness. I was separating myself from the companionship of my friends, thereby feeling alone and lost. And I was certainly tainting the trust that I had with these women. I was negatively affecting my relationship with my partner. I was negating my job performance. This competitive mindset was undermining the success and happiness that I was creating in my life. She explained to me that I had lost sight of my own accomplishments and successes, and had begun to define my worth by the possessions, accomplishments and successes of these other women.
Still, when Rebecca began telling me about the concept of female competitiveness, I had a hard time grasping it. I did not think of myself as someone who was catty, or gossipy, or prone to competitive behaviors. I am very invested in personal growth, and think of myself as someone who has a fair amount of self- awareness. How had I fallen into the trap of competing with other women? How had I allowed these competitive thoughts to disrupt the joy and contentment that I had just been experiencing? I needed to know how I had lost sight of the truth of myself so quickly. And, I needed to know why I had compromised my worth by comparing myself to other women. That day, alone and miserable in my hotel room, I became determined to understand and unravel the origins of female competitiveness. I really wanted to look at all the ways in which I had cheated myself out of joy and self- love, just because I was perceiving someone else as better. I wanted to fully get how my deepest moments of despair were linked to comparisons and envy of other women. I was hungry to break open this mindset- and I was more determined to release it from my life! After five years of working with Rebecca, we discovered the processes to Destroy this evil inner demon and command it to immediately leave anytime it dare creep back in.
Cures Your Vulnerability Right Now
Here’s a sample of what experts have to say:
So what is female competitiveness? Female competitiveness is happening all the time; you just haven’t been trained to recognize the in-the-moment cues and clues as they show themselves. You are constantly sizing other women up, and asking:
Stops the Snow White Syndrome Right Now
You Don’t Even Recognize When you are trapped in a competitive mindset, you totally waste tremendous amounts of energy and interest in scrutinizing the lives of other women instead of betting your own life. By constantly comparing yourself to others, you deplete your own energy reserves, separate yourself from others, as well as make yourself cranky, paranoid, and deeply unhappy. Understand, wanting a nice home, a beautiful body, a great career, and abundance in all areas of your life is not a bad thing. It is your birthright. The problem occurs when you observe someone else acquiring these things and feel jealousy, inadequacy, or inferiority. The problem is even worse when your thoughts automatically are conditioned to turn against a friend or most self-defeatingly, yourself. Your identity will never allow you to do things in conflict with it. So imagine you see a bumper sticker “I hate rich people” on an old beat up 1973 pinto. You immediately agree with the person. By saying this your identity pushes any riches away from you because “you hate rich people” and therefore cannot be rich yourself since you’d now have to hate yourself. Your identity won’t allow this. So when you see someone else’s beauty, wealth, happiness, and success congratulate them and wish them even more. This programs your mind to go after this because you like it. We are all on our own unique paths and are at different levels. Aside from the obvious reasons, Why is this such a big problem?
You create your life. Every moment you are sending out signals to the Universe, attracting “like” situations and circumstances. Call it Karma, or The Law of Attraction, or whatever other label you may want to put on it. You may not be aware that the obstacles you struggle with on a daily basis, and your inability to achieve all you desire in your life, may be directly related to the lower, baser thoughts and emotions associated with competing.

When you’re caught up in these feelings of inadequacy, you fail to acknowledge and nurture those qualities and strengths that are uniquely yours. You stop celebrating your extraordinary beauty. These competitive beliefs separate you from your essential self, your true and authentic being- that part of you that is unique, complete and glorious. And, when you are disconnected from this truth, you will create from a place of inadequacy, insufficiency and scarcity therefore drawing struggle, drama and hardship into your life. So… The results clearly show female competitiveness…
Let’s take a minute and look at what you can start doing right now to eliminate female competitiveness in your life. So What Can You Do Right Now Here’s an extremely important formula which determines how you create your reality and success. Many of the most respected teachers in the field of human potential have used this formula as a foundation for their teachings. It is called the Process of Manifestation and it goes like this:
Thoughts lead to feelings, feelings lead to actions and actions lead to results.
Your thoughts create what you end up manifesting in your life. When you are feeling jealous and envious it is because you are coming from a lack mentality and you will continue to create this lack of what you desire. Imagine a girl named Sara walks down the street and observes a woman who is radiant and filled with joy. Sara thinks, “I hate happy people. Why am I never happy? What is wrong with me?” She starts to beat herself up Because she thinks disempowering thoughts, she then starts to feel disempowered. The actions she will then take will be from a disempowered place. She may feel depressed and all she will want to do is stay in bed. She will not want to go out or even socialize with anyone. This will negatively affect her job productivity. In addition to isolation and loneliness it damages her financially. Instead of noticing the radiance and joy in other woman and feeling inspired, she will feels threatened instead. Now put that out of your mind and instead imagine this scenario. Sara says, “Wow. That woman is so joyful. I too desire to have that radiance and joy. If she can be that happy, then I can too.” Those thoughts lead to feelings of empowerment and inspiration. Sara might then go to a bookstore and purchase a book on happiness or personal growth. It may inspire her to take a course or hire a personal coach to get her closer to the radiance and joy she seeks. Sometime shortly after, she too becomes radiant and joyful. . Now you know the truth which has eluded you for so long…the blueprint which allows you to finally get the results you want out of your life. Thoughts lead to feelings, and feelings leads to actions, and actions lead to results. Now it’s time to take it a step further and ask these interesting questions:
Your thoughts originate from the “files of information” you have in the storage cabinets of your mind. So where does this information come from? It comes from your past programming. That’s right every single thought you have as it relates to competing and comparing yourself with other women is from your past conditioning. That is why it is often referred to as the conditioned mind. To reflect this understanding you must now revise your Process of Manifestation in the following way: Programming
Thoughts
Feelings
Actions = Results Your programming leads to your thoughts; your thoughts lead to your feelings; your feelings lead to your actions; your actions lead to your results. (For example, if you witnessed your mother comparing herself to one of your aunts or one of her friends, and then noticed how she would beat herself up for not measuring up, you were conditioned to be critical and judgmental of yourself. You learned this pattern. As you got older you picked up where your mother left off and started doing this in your own life. You are shopping with a friend and she tries on a skirt that looks amazing on her tiny little body. Even though you are in good shape, you start the programming of comparing how she looks to how you look. ) If you are conditioned to believe you are not good enough, or focus on what is “wrong” with you, or that you are not “perfect” and won’t be happy until you are, your past programming can ONLY lead to unhappiness. You know the destructive story and have Stops the destructive cycle now Your negative past programming keeps recurring, leads to thoughts of ‘not being good enough’, leads you to feelings of disappointment and inadequacy, leads to the dreaded downing of a whole pint of ice cream in one sitting! You believed this eating action would make you feel better but the results are only more devastation. You will gain even more weight making yourself even less attractive and more ‘not good enough’. It’s a vicious cycle which is impossible to escape until you take action and reprogram your past programming into ‘life and happiness gaining results’. It has to start at the programming level because that’s the beginning of the process. So, now you know the process. Therefore, just like re-programming a computer, by changing your programming, you take the first essential step to changing your results. By deleting and replacing this past automatic programming of comparing and judging yourself based on other women, you will feel a sense of empowerment no matter who you are in the presence of. Even if you ONLY delete the past Replace it with something more useful to your desired life and you’ll become master of your destiny. You’ll be the director of your life orchestrating an Oscar worthy masterpiece. When your past conditioning is changed, you can be in the presence of the most beautiful and successful women and feel good about yourself and feel a sense of empowerment. Imagine what it would look like if you were ‘programmed’ differently. You see a woman walking down the street and you notice she has long and thin legs. Instead of putting all your focus and attention on what she has and what you don’t, feeling bad about yourself, you realize that you are perfect just as you are and your thoughts are empowering such as “I love my strong legs. I feel good inside my body. I am grateful I have the type of legs that I have. If I want my legs to be thinner, I have the power to create that.” Because you are now programmed with an abundant mind that is focused on self-love, you have empowering thoughts which replace the former resentment with feelings of happiness and contentment. You then want to go to a yoga class or visit the gym. The result is that you then create even stronger and sexier legs. Now, instead of the vicious cycle you had before it is a positive, life-altering cycle which leads to all the things you’ve wanted but have alluded your grasp despite your best efforts. It’s not your fault BUT IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO CHANGE IT. Let’s Change Your Programming Right Now Starts your new life immediately I am going to give you some simple steps for change to get you started in eliminating female competitiveness from your life. Step 1 RECOGNIZE: The first step to lasting change is recognition. You can’t change something until you know it exists. By understanding where your “way of thinking” originated from, you can recognize it came from outside and therefore you no longer have to be a slave to it. Below are statements about Female Competitiveness. Select either yes or no next to the statement which relates to how you feel about each of the scenarios.
Now you’ve recognized problematic female competitiveness exists and since you’re still reading, you have completed the fist step on your path to reclaiming your power. Congratulations. Step 2 RELEASE: The 2nd step to claiming your destiny is release. This way of thinking isn’t you. The next step is to separate yourself from it and let it go. Once you become aware you see it’s only a “file” of information which was stored in your mind a long, long time ago and may not hold any truth or value for you anymore. One of the many ways of releasing this past conditioning is to forgive yourself when you notice you are engaged in it. Second, is to make a declarative statement to the world and to yourself. When you say this type of declarative statement you are using the power of intention (the public part makes it especially powerful and effective). Intention is a field of energy that flows invisibly beyond the reach of our normal, everyday habitual patterns. Everyone has this force and you have the power to draw it into your life by being the energy you want to attract. Intention is a very powerful force in the universe. You want to have it working for you not against you. Read this statement out loud, placing your hand over your heart, and read it with feeling and conviction!
After stating this declarative statement, how do you feel? What if you read this statement (or one similar to it) every morning right after you woke up? What if you wrote this statement down on a small piece of paper and carried it with you everywhere you went so you can refer to it and declare it every time you start comparing yourself to someone else? What would your life be like if you did not have the habit of female competitiveness in your own life? Would you have more abundance, success, better relationships, or more peace? Step 3 RECLAIM: The third step to lasting change is reclaiming. One of the ways to reclaim your essential and powerful Goddess self is to return to a place of self-love. Loving yourself is the greatest answer to your biggest problems and to becoming the master of your life! The more love you give yourself, the more others will naturally give their love to you. Having unstoppable love towards your self is also the essential secret for manifesting every dream you desire. When you live from a place of Self-Love, you automatically regain the power to magically manifest the amazing opportunities, financial goals, ideal relationships, and outrageous opportunities you want into your life. This high energy frequency of Self-Love is irresistible to others, and naturally opens up other people's energy fields, causing them to want to support you in your manifestations. When you are living from this vibration, everybody is naturally pulled towards you and truly supports you in making your dreams a reality. You literally become a magnet for positive people, circumstances, opportunities, and situations. Some people love affirmations and the results
So now for the million dollar question. Ultimately, how do you escape the dream death trap, which Female Competitiveness is, once-and-for-all?
