About this listen
Having our flaws picked on in our childhood years is something that you hope to leave in the past and make peace with. When we find as adults that we are still - and maybe even more so - expected to hide these imperfections and pretend they don’t exist, we feel lost. This book is about finally coming to terms with the ultimate truth that we are not and will never be perfect. It walks you through self-discovery and acceptance, while exploring what it means to love yourself.
Self-care is often misunderstood. This book explores the concept through real-life examples and unpacks the sensitive topic of boundaries. You will gain an understanding of how you can nurture yourself along your journey. At the end of the book, techniques are offered to redirect negative thoughts and feelings of low self-worth. This is a giant step towards embracing your flaws and living an authentic life!

But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

Story
The relentless pursuit of high self-esteem has become a virtual religion - and a tyrannical one at that. Our ultracompetitive culture tells us we need to be constantly above average to feel good about ourselves, but there is always someone more attractive, successful, or intelligent than we are. And even when we do manage to grab hold of high self-esteem for a brief moment, we can't seem to keep it. Our sense of self-worth goes up and down like a ping-pong ball, rising and falling in lockstep with our latest success or failure.
