Self-Esteem: Are You Stuck in a Cycle of Self-Doubt?
Send us Fan Mail
Tune in for an emotionally honest episode where Desiree, Michelle, and Doree unpack what self-esteem really is - and what it isn’t. They explore how childhood, family expectations, body image, bullying, and societal standards shape the way we see ourselves, often tying our worth to productivity, perfectionism, and people-pleasing.
They dive into the difference between genuine confidence and arrogance, how self-talk quietly erodes (or supports) self-esteem, and why low self-esteem can make life feel exhausting. Doree brings in manifestation and explains why you can’t call in what you don’t believe you deserve, while Desiree shares powerful stories that influenced her understanding of self-esteem & worthiness from her journey.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
- A practical definition of self-esteem and how it shows up in real life
- How childhood, caregivers, and early experiences quietly program your self-worth
- Why self-esteem issues affect both women and men, just in different ways
- The difference between confidence and arrogance + how to spot each in yourself and others
- How your body posture and somatic habits can shift how confident you feel
- Why low self-esteem can block manifestation and keep you repeating the same patterns
- How to “borrow belief” from others when your own self-belief is at rock bottom
- Why learning to say “no” is a powerful self-esteem move, not selfishness
