Are you incredibly hard on yourself? Does every day feel like an uphill battle? As a woman, low self esteem can impact all areas of your life. If you are struggling to find the positives, you are not alone. Low self esteem can make you feel scared of failing, feel anxious, or uncomfortable when out in public, cause you to isolate, or make you feel like there is something wrong with you. Feelings of insecurity, self-doubt, and overwhelm are very common, especially in this post-pandemic era and it can make your days more difficult to get through. I help women who are struggling with how they feel about themselves to feel better.
