135. But I Have Low Self-Esteem
Self-esteem has implications in eating disorder recovery, and this episode explores some of those -- including self-compassion, connection, competence, comparison, social expectations, shame, and even anger! Tune in for this nuanced conversation about self-esteem (and self-worth, by extension) with topics including:
* What comes first -- low self-esteem or disordered eating behaviors?
* The relationship between safety, shame, and self esteem (especially in restrictive behaviors)
* The role of creativity (for Stef) and self-compassion (for Sarah)
* Addressing the expectations we have of ourselves
* The momentum of self-esteem when it interacts with other concepts (like consistency)
* "Pinterest Moms" as a gateway to Stef's self esteem rehabilitation
* Social covert pressure vs overt pressure
* Competence for self-esteem for self worth
* The Five C's of self-esteem in research
* The role of Joy (and rethinking "joy")
* Are glimmers the opposite of triggers?
* Six Pillars of Self Esteem by Nathaniel Brandon (book)
* Self esteem vs self worth
