Realizing Your Self-Worth

In this podcast, Arleen shares the importance of understanding how self-worth and self-confidence play a role in healing your heart. Arleen shares the book Worthy by Jamie Kern Lima, self-made entrepreneur, founder and CEO of IT Cosmetics. Jamie’s story of how she refused to give up her convictions despite years of rejection, led to the launch of her billion dollar company. When we understand how the words we use to describe the way we feel feeds into our self-worth, we can learn strategies to evaluate situations in a different way. As healthcare workers, everyday experiences with co-workers, patients and families can have a negative influence on your sense of self-worth. If you are not careful, you can find yourself listening to those negative words which will impact your ability to grow to your highest potential. You can believe those experiences.  Arleen shares how our experiences from our childhood can directly influence your self-worth. By sharing her own personal experience of being raised in a religious cult, and breaking free, finding freedom was part of her destiny, but our childhood experiences can affect the way we see the world. Arleen also shares the “Four R’s” from Jamie’s book to help you to look at rejection from a different perspective. So that you can continue to show up every day, push those thoughts aside and continue to do the great work you were designed to do–caring for others.  Learn Jamie’s inspirational story by visiting her website at www.jamiekernlima.com or by purchasing her book Worthy on Amazon.
