Self-Worth

How you value yourself influences everything from the opportunities you pursue to the relationships you accept. This section explores the foundations of self-worth and offers compassionate guidance for developing a more stable sense of your inherent value.

Here you’ll find insights into why self-worth fluctuates, how early experiences shape your self-perception, and practical ways to build confidence that doesn’t depend on achievement or others’ approval. We address common struggles like perfectionism, impostor syndrome, and the tendency to define yourself by productivity.

These articles move beyond generic “love yourself” advice to offer concrete practices that help you recognize your worth, set healthy standards, and treat yourself with the same kindness you’d offer a good friend. Because building genuine self-worth isn’t about positive thinking; it’s about developing a truthful, compassionate relationship with yourself that persists even during difficult times.
