Lesson Overview

28.01 – What Is Self-Esteem and Where Does It Come From?: Self-esteem is the quiet voice inside that shapes how you see yourself, how you handle challenges, and how you recover when things don’t go your way. It starts forming when you’re young, built from the words, actions, and beliefs of the people around you. But as you grow, you begin to shape it yourself—through choices, small victories, and how you respond to mistakes. Confidence doesn’t come from perfection or praise; it grows through experiences that teach resilience and self-respect. Healthy self-esteem means knowing you’re valuable even when things go wrong. It’s strengthened by being honest about who you are and by treating yourself with the same patience you’d give to a friend. When you stop trying to meet impossible standards and start celebrating effort, you reclaim the power to define your worth on your own terms.
