  Speaker 3: A woman walks into a high end department store and
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: picks up a sparky pair of designer shoes. She says,
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: these are gorgeous. How much the clerk replies they're eight
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: hundred and fifty dollars. She gats eight hundred and fifty
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: dollars for one pair of shoes. The clerk nods yes,
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: but they're handmade in Italy, all leather, limited edition. The
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: woman pauses, thinks for a moment, and says, well, they
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: do look like the kind of shoes that would walk

  Speaker 3: me away from all my problems. The clerk laughs at this,

  Speaker 3: of Positively three sixty five, You're a weekly reminder that
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: even in the smallest shift in thinking, it can brighten
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: your whole day. I'm your host, Joe Wattis, and today
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: we're diving into something many of us wrestle with quietly,
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: self worth. Your Self worth isn't based on your job title,
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: your relationship status, your bank account, or your productivity. It
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: is not something that you earn. It's something you remember.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: You are enough, not because of what you've done, but
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: because simply of who you are. But first, before we
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: get into all of that, it's time for our trivia
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: question of the day. Are you ready for it? Here
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: it is which psychologist is most famously associated with the
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: hierarchy of needs, which includes self esteem as a part
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: of human motivation. Think it over, we'll have the answer
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: when we come back. Are you looking for your next

• 4:15
  Speaker 3: listening and happy reading. Welcome back. Do you know the
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: answer to this week's trivia question? The question was which
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: psychologist is most famously associated with the hierarchy of needs,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: which include self esteem as a key part of human motivation.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: The answer Abraham Maslow. Maslow's hierarchy of needs is often
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: shown as a pyramid. At the base are things like
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: food and safety. Higher up are things like love, belonging,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: and self esteem. The need to feel valued and confid
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: evident in who we are and at the very top
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: self actualization, the ability to become your fullest self. But
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: here's the truth. You don't have to be at the
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: top of the pyramid to have worth. Your value isn't
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: something that increases as you climb. It's there from the start,
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: based on who you are. Let's talk about what happens
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: when you remember your worth. When you believe you matter
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: truly deeply, you stop chasing external validation, You stop tolerating
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: what drains you. You stop apologizing for taking up space.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: You also stop trying and tying your value to how
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: productive you are, how many likes you get, or whether
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: someone else approves of your choices. That's not arrogance, that's alignment.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: And here's the important thing. Self worth doesn't mean you
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: think you're perfect. It means you know you are worthy,
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: even with your flaws, even when you mess up, even
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: when you fall short, even when you don't feel like
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: you matter, even when you're still learning. And the more
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: you believe that, the more positive your relationships become, the
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: stronger your boundaries get, the kinder your inner voice becomes.
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: Because self worth is the root from which so many
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: other good things grow. Let me end this week's podcast
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: with a quote by Brene Brown. You are imperfect, You
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: are wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: and belonging right now, just as you are. You are enough,
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: not once you lose ten pounds, not once you make
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: enough money, not once you fix everything, now today, already.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: So here is your gentle reminder. You don't have to
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: prove your worth, you just have to stop forgetting it.
