Dear Krachel: I have virtually no self-esteem

<p>Welcome to another episode of Dear Krachel, a monthly advice segment where we answer audience questions about life, career, relationships, existential angst, and anything that helps you become a more whole, fulfilled version of yourself.</p> <p>On this episode, we’re answering questions from:</p> <ul> <li>Sarah, who is distressed by how much she doesn’t like herself, and how all of her behavior reflects that lack of self-esteem (to the point where she says it feels like “her soul is screaming every day”). <strong>How does someone show themselves love when they’re not convinced there’s anything about them <em>to</em> love?</strong></li> <li>D, who loves to dance but whose husband is not supportive of her passion. <strong>How can she get over the guilt she feels in pursuing something that her spouse doesn’t understand or particularly like?</strong></li> <li>Christine, who says she recently sabotaged a very new relationship because she’s unsure that she wants to be a stepmom to his 3 kids one day. <strong>Did she jump the gun? Is it wrong for her to expect a life of “firsts” with a future partner, rather than be someone’s second spouse/co-parent?</strong></li> </ul> <p><strong>At the beginning of this episode we also have a REALLY good update from someone whose question we answered in December. Let’s just say it’s very karmically satisfying.</strong></p> <p>After you’ve listened, <a href= "https://clarityonfire.com/no-self-esteem">leave us a comment</a> to let us know how our advice for these three listeners resonated with you!</p> <p>Want to submit a question for our February episode of Dear Krachel? <a href="http://clarityonfire.com/podcast-questions/">Fill out this form and you might hear us tackle your Q!</a></p> <p>IF YOU LIKED THIS YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO…</p> <p><a href="https://clarityonfire.com/fruit-poisonous-tree/">Side Chat: Fruit of the poisonous tree (August 2019)</a></p> <p><a href= "https://clarityonfire.com/overcoming-deepest-secret-blocks/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Side Chat: The trick to ove
