In this episode, I’m exploring how low self-worth can quietly shape your financial life, from under-earning and overspending to avoiding negotiation and staying stuck in unhealthy relationships. I break down the difference between self-confidence, self-esteem, and self-worth, and how each one affects the choices we make with money.
