  2. SEASON FINALE!!!!!

    SEASON FINALE!!!!!

    This is Episode 10. The Season 1 finale of The Building You Podcast. In this episode, Esther answers 12 questions about the season — raw and unfiltered. What it actually cost her to show up every Sunday. The lie she told herself at the beginning that turned out not to be true, and the episode she recorded for one person that somehow reached everybody. Also — FL, one of her most loyal listeners, leaves a voice note review. And it's the kind of thing that reminds you exactly why building something quietly, consistently, faithfully — is always worth it. Season 2 is coming. But first, this. This is not goodbye. This is see you soon. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit hadassahh.substack.com

    Navigating the In-Between: How to Keep Building When Nothing Feels Certain

    Job hunting. Building a legacy. Trying to stay sane. Sound familiar? In this episode, Esther gets personal about the season she's currently in where nothing is settled yet but everything still has to keep moving. She shares 7 honest, practical things that have been keeping her grounded: from decluttering her to-do list and staying consistent in devotion, to learning how to actually stick with something past the two-week mark. This isn't a results episode. It's a systems episode — and it might be exactly what you need to hear today.

    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.

  7. How Do I Build Confidence...Without Pretending?

    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.

    The one where we talk about DISCIPLINE

    Discipline is often misunderstood as punishment, restriction, or extreme consistency. In this episode of Building You, Esther talks honestly about what discipline really is, why it starts with clarity, how it’s rooted in structure, and why the goal isn’t discipline itself, but alignment with the life you’re trying to build. This is a grounded, practical conversation for anyone feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start.
