February is Boost Your Self-Esteem Month!

Building your confidence – starting today.

Self-esteem is how you feel about yourself. When it’s healthy, you recognize your strengths and appreciate the good in life. The great news? You can strengthen it. Here’s how:

• Flip the script on self-criticism. Replace harsh inner voices with kinder ones. Celebrate wins, big and small, and own what you’re good at.
• Show your compassion. Everyone is a work in progress. Treat yourself like you’d treat a good friend, with kindness and understanding.
• Stop the comparison game. Social media shows highlight reels, not reality. Focus on your path and progress, not someone else’s.
• Find growth in every experience. When things don’t go as planned, ask what you learned instead of dwelling on the disappointment. Turn obstacles into stepping stones.
• Build your crew. Surround yourself with people who uplift you. A positive circle makes a real difference in how you see yourself.
