Therapist Tips
If you’re naturally a caretaker it can be so easy to tie your worth to what you do for others.
But I want you to know that you are worthy just for being YOU.
If you feel like this might be you, here are four ways to start reconnecting with your own value and build a sense of self-worth that doesn't depend on always giving to others:
Practice Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself. Speak to yourself the way you would to a friend, with compassion and with understanding. It's okay to make mistakes and it's okay to take breaks. You deserve the same love and care you give to others.
Explore New Hobbies: Find activities that light you up and bring joy without the pressure of performance. Whether it’s painting, hiking, or learning a new skill, doing something for yourself helps you reconnect with your unique passions and strengths.
Engage in Self-Reflection: Take time to pause and reflect on who you are, what you value, and what makes you feel fulfilled. Journaling or meditation can help you connect with your inner voice and understand your true needs.
Set & Achieve Personal Goals: Set goals that are about YOU, and not what others expect from you. Whether big or small, accomplishing something that is purely for your own growth is a powerful reminder of your capabilities and your worth.
Remember, your worth isn’t determined by how much you give, but by the love and respect you show to yourself. 💖
