Happy belated/potentially soon birthday, Alicia! This video was great! I remember the first time Jono talked about accepting something rationally, but not emotionally, because I immediately turned to my partner then and proudly shouted, "SEE! IT'S A REAL THING." Accepting my physical appearance is something that I've struggled with for a looooong time now. I was heavily bullied for my looks and have been told some pretty harmful things about my appearance. Including: - "You're so easy to talk to because you're not pretty/hot/beautiful." - "I think you're a super cool person. Any guy would be lucky to have you... I just don't think you're physically attractive." - "I thought you would be hotter." It makes meeting people face-to-face absolutely terrifying for me, even though I know that I like who I am as a person. Thanks for making this, you two!
I grew up achiving everything as my parents demanded. And they said ppl who can't achieve don't deserve fun stuff...now i hate anyone who is not achieving but just having fun 😅
Oof. This hit hard. Despite not really having the hustle environment growing up, I do feel so much of what Alicia said. I’m constantly attaching my worth to success and comparing myself to others who have gotten further along in their careers, personal lives, etc. Being grateful for what I have instead of feeling the need to do more is what I try to remind myself of whenever I find myself comparing. It’s hard, though, not gonna lie….
Okay, here's a tough question. I grew up being told--thoughh actions, and words, and expectations, by society, school, and to a small extent family members--that people with disabilities don't have a positive impact no matter how hard I try. How do I accept that I do help people without tying it to my self worth? How do I keep up self care without feeling like a burden on the world?
Been there, done that... In my early twenties I used to exclusively rely all my self worth to external achievements/praise and grades in College... After a while I realised that you don't have to fight and try to be perfect to have a good self esteem... Just the fact that you exist and are a piece of the puzzles universe is a good enough reason to value yourself... From a Christian point of view, if only people knew how much God values all of us as His children and His tribe, low self esteem wouldn't even exist in todays world... Only God can fill the hole in the soul and doing good deeds not only helps you to gain Heaven but also fixes any problems with self esteem...
Don't know if this counts as a self worth question, but how to you help your partner who struggles with self-worth and self-identity without sounding like a therapist or judgemental?
There are lots of faults with capitalism but I don't think this is capitalism specific. It certainly makes it worse though. There will still be people who connect achieving goals or usefulness with self worth.

Best video ever.

Self-worth is always there and never needs to be earned. Relationships with other people are what is not a basic human right.

You switched sides 😁
Also, shelves still empty 😁
The shelves are still steadily being filled 😁.
@SaucyJTD oh, you noticed a difference between videos or is just the framing/angle & lightning in this one? I'd say the latter 🤔
Oh my God I was just asking for help to universe
Happy to help deliver that!
Capitalism is a hell of a drug. The whole premise is "achieve and then you can be happy".
Usually at the expense of others
