Podcasts about low self esteem

What would you do if your partner tried to ghost you on a mountaintop?   In this episode, Carrie and Meg dive into the viral TikTok trend of the "Alpine Divorce" — a chilling phenomenon where women have come forward sharing stories of partners abandoning them in dangerous outdoor situations.   From the tragic Austria hiking case that sparked millions of views, to the related "Maritime Divorce" and "Disney Divorce," the ladies break down the red flags hiding in plain sight. Carrie even reveals her own terrifying near-miss: a "Twister Divorce" where her ex sheltered from a tornado without telling her — while she blissfully cooked tacos in Roanoke, Texas.   This episode is a reminder that your partner should be your protector, not your biggest threat — and that some red flags fly straight at your face.   Chapters: 0:00 - Intro & Twister Divorce Tease 1:00 - Welcome to Got Her Back 1:30 - What Is the Alpine Divorce Trend? 3:00 - A Second Victim Comes Forward 4:00 - Why These Situations Are So Dangerous for Women 5:00 - Red Flags: Don't Go Hiking If You're Arguing 6:00 - Maritime Divorce & Dateline-Worthy Stories 7:30 - Self-Defense Kit: AirTag, Flare Gun & Bear Spray 9:00 - The Twister Divorce (Carrie's Personal Story) 12:00 - Tornado Warning in Roanoke, Texas 15:00 - The Reveal: Ex Sheltered Without Telling Her 17:00 - Gaslighting & Marriage Counseling Aftermath 18:30 - Walking Ahead: The Disney Divorce 20:00 - Low Self-Esteem & Knowing You Deserve Better 21:00 - Protector Partners vs. Red Flag Partners 22:00 - Outro & Socials

God already said it's yours. But you still have to go take it.That's the tension at the heart of Episode 244 — and it's one of the most convicting episodes Norense has recorded. Live from a 12th floor apartment overlooking the Hudson River in New York City, he unpacks the story of the 12 spies in Numbers 13 and delivers a message that will hit anyone who has ever talked themselves out of what God put in front of them.The land was flowing with milk and honey. God had already shown up — through the Red Sea, through the wilderness, through fire by night and cloud by day. And ten of the twelve spies still came back and said: we were like grasshoppers in our own sight.That's not just an Old Testament story. That's you every time you automatically reject an opportunity, shrink back from a God-given idea, or let someone else's failed experience become your ceiling.In this episode:The story of Caleb and Joshua — and what separated them from the ten spies who gave a bad reportWhy automatic rejection is the fruit of low self-esteem — and what's really at the rootHow spreading a bad report about your own life pulls other people down with youWhy staying in place is actually the irrational choice — not going forwardWhat it means to "possess the land" in your real, everyday life right nowWhy God makes His appeal to the world through you — which means sitting on the promise isn't an optionA live testimony: a PATH train conductor in New York who recognized Norense and reminded him that faith in action produces fruit — even when you can't see itKey Truth: "You are irrational for staying in place."Key Verse: Numbers 13:30 — Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, "Let us go up at once and take possession of it, for we will certainly conquer it."If this episode hit you:Rate and review the Mind Bully Podcast — it helps more homes and hearts hear this message.

If you struggle with low self-esteem, self-doubt, or feeling not good enough, ands it impacts your anxiety and wellbeing - you're in the right place. Honestly, a lot of people look confident and happy on the outside but privately feel stuck in cycles of overthinking, anxious attachment, perfectionism, and self-criticism.In this episode, I (Psychotherapist and Self-Esteem Specialist, Carly Ann) open up a deeper conversation about what low self-esteem really is and why it can continue showing up even when you are doing the inner work. - we look at what keeps it going.Low self-worth often isn't just about confidence. It can be connected to deeper beliefs we carry about ourselves and the subtle patterns that keep those beliefs alive in everyday life, I will explain more in this episode.If certain situations trigger intense self-doubt, you jump to the worst conclusions about yourself, or things just feel so difficult, I think this could really help you today.I work with thoughtful, capable people who often appear confident externally but internally struggle with rumination, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and feeling like they are never quite good enough.This episode is for anyone beginning to question their relationship with themselves and wanting to understand low self-esteem and self-worth on a deeper level.If you are learning to reparent yourself, build self-acceptance, and develop a kinder inner voice - welcome to the community.

In this episode of Unf*ck Your Relationships, I'm breaking down 11 ways low self-esteem quietly sabotages intimacy. It doesn't just look like insecurity, it hides behind being chill, low-maintenance, and “the bigger person.” If you're smart, self-aware, and still stuck in the same patterns, this one will be a mirror.We're talking about conflict avoidance, over-giving, suppressing needs, reassurance-seeking, jealousy, withdrawing, and staying too long in unhealthy dynamics. Low self-esteem doesn't just affect how you feel about yourself, it shapes how you show up in love. If you listen and think, “F*ck… this is me,” take that as information, not shame. Nothing is wrong with you, but your self-concept may be running the show and until that changes, your relationships won't.

A conversation with Damian Andrews of SHAIR.Care Podcast (Australia) in 2023.“Mirror, Mirror on the wall, who is the fairest or them all”? How do you answer that question for you? Learn to love self, before you can love others.I use that thing called EMDR to work on the distorted image of self. What is this thing called EMDR? It is Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing. What a mouth full!I can talk about it til the cows come home, but you will still have frowns on your eyebrows. Watch a few of the video clips: https://youtu.be/9uE04Blfd-Q?si=MrNZZmCAgmTmOUo7  EMDR (Prince Harry) experiencehttps://youtu.be/M2ra8p4MSOkhttps://youtu.be/bIJZQAr9nQohttps://youtu.be/HNdMHuwvF_Mhttps://youtu.be/xZVw-9ThmSMStop accepting the crumbs off the table. The brain's dialogue with you can go like this: “It's better to have someone, than no one; but people are not safe. Keep them at arms-length and be ready to retreat quickly, if you get a whiff or hint that they are unhappy and may finish with you. It is best to torpedo the relationship; jettison it and protect your heart from further pain, before they do it to you. So, throw in a hand grenade (effectively, to create conflict so as to force the other person to have to leave and finish with you); and then the ‘fait accompli' kicks in, where – ‘I knew they would finish with me at some point'. (When in fact that was not necessarily what they were planning); more important that you do it to them, before they do it to you, because it hurts less, done that way and you are then in more control of the pain, than if it is done to you and you were caught off guard (again). “Do onto others, before they do it to you” – is being played out repeatedly.

Let me know your thoughts about the podcast. Thank you for listening!A tap on the shoulder at the Kotel. Two deer in an empty cemetery at dawn. Those moments of impossible timing launch a candid, practical journey into self-esteem, why it slips, and how to bring light back when life feels dim. We connect the sacred and the everyday, then get specific about what low self-worth looks like when it shows up in real life.We unpack 14 common patterns: imposter syndrome that lingers long after the first week on the job, avoiding social scenes out of fear rather than temperament, and relationships that wobble when we ask partners to fill holes we haven't faced. We draw a hard line between healthy thrills and not caring if you live, explore hypersensitivity and modest presence, and dismantle the myth that you must be the best to be worthy. You'll hear how people-pleasing masquerades as kindness, how perfectionism quietly becomes procrastination, and why your health can mirror your emotions.There's a relationship toolkit here too. The “sunscreen love” idea sticks: compliments protect, criticism burns. We show how fishing for compliments keeps you stuck in outside approval, while specific, sincere praise regenerates trust. We talk fake confidence, practical “rejection therapy,” and the daily skill of resilience—especially in marriage—where acceptance beats control. We challenge snap judgments (the “stuck up” label often hides shyness) and call out gossip as feathers scattered on the wind. We also examine attention economics in modern media and the lure of looks-based fixes when insecurity drives the choice.If you've felt the sting of comparison or the silence of feeling not enough, this conversation offers a map back to steady ground: add light, guard your attention, replace criticism with earned praise, and practice resilience until confidence becomes your default. If this resonated, follow the show, share with a friend who needs it, and leave a review with the one insight you'll act on this week.

If you think you're a loser and a failure, then you're going to behave in ways that confirm these beliefs. We all have beliefs about our inherent worth and what we deserve, and when life starts getting too good, we'll self-sabotage to bring ourselves back down.

Welcome to the latest episode of Being a Parent is Hard! In “Cultivating Self-Esteem in Our Kids: Recipes to Combat Low Self-Esteem", we focus on why self-esteem is at the core our emotional universe and some of the difficulties we see when kids struggle with low self-esteem.  We offer strategies and insights as to what truly cultivates self-esteem in children and teens and what simply allays a parent's concern about enhancing their child's self-image.  For example, focusing on attractiveness, thinness, and performance are rarely direct routes to helping a child build a stronger, more secure and positive sense of themselves.  Please join us for a deep dive into the topic of self-esteem and how we as parents, teachers, coaches, and members of a community can influence a child's self-esteem.Contact us at: beingaparentishardpodcast@gmail.com

This week's episode is going to feel like magic. ✨ I had the honor of sitting down with Denise Linn, the legendary teacher, author, and intuitive whose wisdom has touched millions around the world (she's even been on Oprah back in the day). Denise shares her extraordinary journey—from a near-death experience that opened her to the unseen world, to discovering how the universe speaks to us through signs, synchronicities, and nature. We also did a live oracle card reading for the end of this year and 2026 that gave me full-body chills. We used her deck, The Sacred Traveler, one of my faves. It's a MUST LISTENl!

Season 9, Episode 24 of PSA: The Mental Health Podcast is as real as it gets. For his first in-person episode of the season, Izzy Baker sits down with Paul Sweatpants, a Las Vegas-based vlogger and Air Force veteran who's built a name for himself through storytelling, self-awareness, and sharp wit. What starts as a lighthearted chat about self-image and hygiene routines quickly unpacks a much deeper question: How did you raise your self-esteem? IIzzy opens up about his personal transformation, from being overlooked in his early years to walking into rooms and turning heads. Paul shares how a single YouTube comment about his lack of structure shifted the entire trajectory of his content and his confidence. Together, they discuss how small changes, better hygiene, real accountability, and facing uncomfortable truths can snowball into major life shifts. The episode digs into how men often confuse ego with self-esteem, how hypersexuality sometimes masks deeper emotional wounds, and how military life impacted Paul's mental health.The two also tackle how social media pressures men to perform rather than heal, and how real brotherhood, not surface-level friendship, plays a critical role in building healthy self-worth.

Are you constantly putting others' needs before your own, struggling to say no, or feeling guilty for setting boundaries? People-pleasing isn't just about being “nice”—it's a deeply ingrained habit rooted in fear, emotional conditioning, and even manipulation. In this episode, we're diving deep into: ✅ The psychology behind people-pleasing—why you feel the need to keep others happy at your own expense. ✅ The hidden ways people-pleasing is actually manipulation (even if you don't mean to). ✅ How toxic relationships feed off people-pleasers—and how to break the cycle. ✅ Why your brain associates saying “no” with danger—and how to rewire it.

Is it a compliment to be called ‘nice'? Singer Louise Redknapp isn't so sure. She's always been the good girl, but she's ready to embrace – and express – different facets of her character now. In this chat with Fearne, Louise explains that being in a 90s girlband, and being married to a sports star, forced her to be shiny and polished at all times. That led to a crippling fear about saying or doing the wrong thing, but she's learning to trust her own gut instinct. Fearne and Louise chat about how never knowing her dad, and becoming a mother herself, have impacted her confidence and identity. Plus, can gratitude combat overwhelm?Louise's fifth studio album, Confessions, will be released on May 23rd.If you liked this episode of Happy Place, you might also like: Anastacia Shania Twain Naomi Watts Hosted on Acast.
