- What comes first -- low self-esteem or disordered eating behaviors?
- The relationship between safety, shame, and self esteem (especially in restrictive behaviors)
- The role of creativity (for Stef) and self-compassion (for Sarah)
- Addressing the expectations we have of ourselves
- The momentum of self-esteem when it interacts with other concepts (like consistency)
- "Pinterest Moms" as a gateway to Stef's self esteem rehabilitation
- Social covert pressure vs overt pressure
- Competence for self-esteem for self worth
- The Five C's of self-esteem in research
