About this listen
Episode Highlights
Key Insight #1:
Self-love deficit isn’t just about low self-esteem, it’s a survival pattern rooted in childhood conditioning. Many of us learned that love must be earned, and that caring for ourselves was selfish. Those lessons follow us into adulthood, draining our peace and joy.
Key Insight #2:
Overgiving activates the brain like addiction and it keeps us stuck. Constantly doing for others can give a dopamine “hit,” making us associate being needed with being loved. But without boundaries, it leads to burnout and resentment.
Key Insight #3:
Confidence is not the same as self-worth. You can be successful, social, and put-together on the outside and still feel empty, lonely, and invisible inside. True self-love is how safe and seen you feel with yourself, not how good you look performing for the world.
