Highly Sensitive, Happily Married

Self-Worth In Love


Listen Later

035  We all have a biological imperative to feel worthy, to feel good enough. This need drives us in all aspects of our life. It is part of what pulls us towards love. 

But it is also in love that our sense of not being quite good enough, not being worthy, is most highlighted. 

Having a strong sense of self-worth is a big part of having a marriage that feels like the safest most loving zone possible…

And having low self-worth is the source of so many marriage problems, such as feeling easily hurt, easily triggered, not loved enough, defensiveness, lashing out, not being honest and authentic, and even being critical of your partner. 

Not feeling good enough on some level (low self-worth) is, unfortunately, so common for hsps. 

Fortunately, you can change that. Listen in to learn how.

In this episode I share:

  • How simple (not necessarily easy) it actually is to develop a solid sense of self-worth.
  • How a lack of self-worth affects your love life and how feeling worthy benefits it.
  • Why low self-worth happens and is normal.
  • What gets in the way of developing self-worth.
  • Where exactly it comes from (and doesn’t come from).
  • What to know if others don’t see you as good enough.
  • Specific things you can do to start feeling more self-worth right away.
  • What deepens and sustains it over time.

Once I learned what I share here, I began to feel better than I’ve ever felt about myself. And that changed everything for the better-- in my marriage, as a parent, in my career, and every realm of my life.

Listen in to make an instant and long-lasting improvement in your sense of self-worth --this most important emotional foundation for a deeply fulfilling life and marriage.

This episode piggybacks on last week's episode, so have a listen to that one, too!
