One month into the new year, let’s talk about something that’s often overlooked but completely life-changing—self-worth. We set goals, chase achievements, and build confidence in different areas of life, but if we don’t truly believe in our own value, those wins can feel hollow.
In this episode, I’m diving into the difference between self-confidence and self-worth, inspired by Jamie Kern Lima’s book Worthy. Confidence comes from what we do, but self-worth is about who we are—without conditions, titles, or external validation. If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly proving yourself or struggling to embrace your achievements, this episode is for you.
I’ll walk you through common signs that your self-worth needs strengthening and share three powerful steps to help you reconnect with who you are, rewrite the negative narratives holding you back, and take action from a place of true self-worth. Especially as moms, we often pour into everyone else before ourselves—this conversation is your reminder that you are worthy, just as you are.
