  • EP50: Self-worth first
    May 30 2025

    Are you a high-achieving woman who feels unfulfilled or secretly struggles with impostor syndrome? You’re not alone, and there’s a path forward. Secrets for a Happy Life is more than just a podcast – it's like personal life coaching for women determined to heal, grow, and reclaim their confidence. In this premiere episode, licensed transformational coach Petra Kmetec Bitenc introduces our 7-Day Self-Esteem Mini-Series – a journey designed to boost your confidence from the inside out. We start by uncovering the foundational difference between self-worth and self-esteem, because knowing your inherent worth is the bedrock of true confidence. (Think of self-worth as the foundation and self-esteem as the house built on top – when your foundation is solid, everything you build stands stronger.) Petra also shares how your inner critic – that nagging voice of self-doubt – might be holding you back in your career and relationships, and what you can do to begin changing that. Join the conversation: drop a comment about your own experience with self-worth or impostor syndrome – Petra would love to hear your story.
