Listen "Self-worth – what is it, how do we lose it and how can we get it back (part 1)"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textSelf-worth is something so many struggle with. It’s a deep and fundamental belief that you have value in the world, and yet, so many lose it and never get it back. When you lack self-worth, you struggle through life not believing you have anything of value to offer the world. So what is self-worth, how does it differ from other self-ideas like self-esteem or self-belief, and what are the moments that take it away? It’s a big topic, and that’s why the amazing Cathy Johnson and I decided we wanted to dig into it more and share our findings in real-time. We did a small survey, attempting to understand why people lose their self-worth, when it happens, and finished this podcast offering ideas on how to get it back. This is just a beginning and we are looking forward to welcoming many guests onto the podcast to dig deeper into why people lose it and how we can all get it back. If we have belief in our own self-worth, we are more powerful role-models in the world, and right now, we definitely need more role-models. Have a listen, let us know if you would like to join a future podcast, and please, feedback any ideas you’d like us to explore in more depth. Note: this is not for people suffering deep trauma or serious abuse. We are not claiming to be professionals that can help with this and are clear in the podcast that this is not our intention. We believe that if “the rest of us” can heal, we make space for more compassion for those really suffering in our society. If we can heal, we create the space for wider community healing – something the world desperately needs.
