S2. E2-Self Love & Positive Self Esteem: A Reading from I Am Spirit

What if affirmations don’t work for you because you don’t actually believe the words you’re saying? What if "I am love" feels impossible to claim, even though you want to feel worthy, grounded, and calm?

In this special episode of Intuitive Conversations, host and psychic medium Nicole Bowman reads 11 affirmations from her book I am spirit positive affirmations for a soul filled life.

She starts by naming the real root of affirmation resistance: the messages you received about your self worth, and the people or moments that taught you "not enough" or "not loved."

From there, she guides you through affirmations and reflection prompts you can actually use in daily life, including a five-minute peace reset, a one-year "how do I want to feel?" journaling prompt, and a practical way to prioritize yourself without overcomplicating it.

Quotes:

"Oftentimes, when we don't believe positive things about ourselves, it is because of what has been told to us by other people."

"Love is always there. Love lives inside you."

"All you need is five minutes to do this brief exercise. Grab a comfortable chair and have a seat. Place your feet firmly on the floor and close your eyes."

"Whenever you feel anxious or discouraged, repeat the words, I trust the process God has my back. This allows you to acknowledge what you are feeling while simultaneously knowing that everything is working out in divine order."

"That is the feeling of your inner knowing. It is the eternal part of you guiding the way. Once you recognize what that sensation feels like, you can apply it to all areas of your life when making important decisions."

 

Takeaways:

Start where self esteem actually broke: write down who told you you were not enough or not loved, then counteract it with proof from the loving things you do every day.

Use "I am love" as an anchor when stress or discouragement hits: say it repeatedly, write it down, and keep it close.

Use the "I am light" prompt to set direction: one year from now, how do you want to feel about your life, and what emotions show up when you sit with that question?

Find peace: the "I am peace" practice is a five-minute breathing reset you can return to when life gets busy and you need to slow down.

Protect your priorities: scan your daily task list to see if you made yourself a priority, add one thing that honors you, schedule the one thing that truly matters today, and let go after you’ve done your part.

 

Conclusion:

This episode is both a book reading and a practical self worth reset. Nicole’s throughline is simple: positive self esteem becomes believable when you address the old messages directly, practice affirmations with reflection, and build calm through repeatable actions. If you want to build self love, find peace in five minutes, and learn what inner knowing feels like so you can trust it, this is a clear, guided starting point.
