Everyone wants higher self-esteem, stronger self-worth, better self-care... but all of those begin with the same word for a reason: self. And yet, so many of us are moving through life disconnected from who we truly are.
In this episode of How to Be Happy, we explore why understanding yourself is the foundation of a fulfilling life; and how to actually begin that journey. I share what it means to reconnect with yourself after years of being a “human chameleon” (something I know all too well), and why true happiness starts with self-awareness, not just surface-level self-help.
We’ll cover:
✅ Why self-understanding is essential before self-confidence, self-worth, or self-care
✅ The danger of outsourcing your answers, and why no one else can define a happy life for you
✅ How introspection can reconnect you to your values, your voice, and your vision
✅ Practical tools to start understanding yourself, including journaling prompts, mindfulness practices, and coaching/therapy support
✅ Why the best expert on your life… is you — once you take time to know yourself
This episode is your starting point for building an authentic, joyful, and purpose-driven life from the inside out.
