    1 DAY AGO

    Let’s Talk Singlehood (After Valentine’s)

    Valentine’s is over… and after the heart emojis, chocolates, and Instagram posts, there’s often that quiet question: “Okay… now what?” In this episode, Esther talks honestly about singlehood — not as a waiting room, but as a powerful, intentional season of growth. This is a gentle but practical conversation about how to stop merely “passing time” while single and start owning the season you’re in. Whether you’re newly single, long-term single, or just reflecting after Valentine’s, this episode invites you to see this phase of your life as meaningful, active, and full of possibility.

    How Do I Build Confidence...Without Pretending?

    In this episode of Building You, Esther explores a question many of us quietly wrestle with:How do I build confidence without pretending to be someone I’m not? In a world that often equates confidence with loudness, certainty, and having it all figured out, this conversation gently challenges that narrative. Esther reflects on the exhaustion of performance, the pressure to “fake it,” and the freedom that comes from building confidence rooted in self-trust, honesty, and alignment. This episode is for anyone who feels unsure, in progress, or tired of pretending — and is ready to build confidence that feels peaceful, grounded, and real. This is a public episode.

    Discipline is often misunderstood as punishment, restriction, or extreme consistency.
