Main Points: Self-Esteem, Confidence, Building Self-Esteem, Relationships

Low self-esteem continues to be a hot topic among the men that I talk to and work with. Too often, we just accept that we have low self-esteem and believe that we can't do anything about it, but we can, and it's not as complex and difficult as you may think.

In the episode, I discuss strategies backed by research and many that I have used myself to build self-esteem in myself and with my clients.

Key topics include:

⭐️ How Does Low Self-Esteem Manifest in People's Lives

⭐️ The Tendency to Avoid Conflicts and/or People-Please in Relationships

⭐️ The Fear of Failure, Imposter Syndrome, Lack of Ambition

⭐️ Characteristics of Low Self-Esteem in Social Life

⭐️ The Connection between Low Self-Esteem and Mental Health

⭐️ The Challenges We Face When Trying to Build Self-Esteem in Today's World

⭐️ The Effects of Social Media and Comparison As the Thief of All Joy
