In this first bonus episode of the What’s Ward Podcast, we take a deep dive into insecurity, defining it as uncertainty in identity shaped by outside voices, circumstances, and self-talk. We discuss causes such as home-life dynamics, parenting, neglect, abuse, and social media’s unrealistic standards, and share personal experiences. We offer practical strategies like challenging negative thoughts, starting small with believable self-praise, limiting comparison, taking breaks from social media, talking openly, finding purpose, seeking quiet time and prayer, practicing gratitude, and building a firm foundation in identity.
