EP 510: Increasing Self-Worth and Confid...

CHRISTINE HASSLER
About this episode

In this deeply supportive session, Christine coaches Erin, who has struggled with self-worth, self-trust, and confidence throughout her life. Recently assessed as neurodivergent, Erin has experienced both relief and grief—relief in finally having clarity, but grief in recognizing how much self-criticism and self-betrayal she carried for years.

Christine guides Erin through understanding how childhood modeling, people-pleasing, and bypassing emotions have impacted her confidence. Together, they explore how building self-worth comes not from external validation, but from radical self-acceptance, emotional release, and advocating for one’s needs in daily life.

If you’ve ever felt “different,” struggled to trust yourself, or wondered how to move beyond self-criticism into true confidence, this conversation will resonate deeply.

Consider / Ask Yourself:

  • Did you grow up feeling “different” or like you didn’t fit the mold?
  • Do you often bypass your feelings, telling yourself “it’s not a big deal”?
  • Have you learned to be a chameleon, shape-shifting to fit others’ needs?
  • Are you quick to explain or excuse others’ behavior instead of honoring your own hurt?

Key Insights and A-HAs:

  • True confidence comes from radical self-acceptance.
  • Self-betrayal often shows up in small ways—ignoring needs, withholding truth, or people-pleasing.
  • Relief can be a doorway into compassion and deeper healing.
  • Suppressed emotions drain energy; released emotions unlock creativity and confidence.
  • The inner child feels safer—and more confident—when we advocate for ourselves in everyday moments.

How to Deepen the Work:

  • Notice moments of self-betrayal in daily life and practice small acts of self-advocacy.
  • Allow yourself to feel emotions fully, without judgment or rushing to fix them.
  • Begin somatic practices that connect you to your body (dance, yoga, movement).
  • Read Expectation Hangover by Christine Hassler, especially the section on emotional release.
  • Redefine confidence as accepting all parts of yourself, not performing perfection.

Upcoming Event:
Christine’s Women’s Retreat is happening October 17–19, 2025. This transformational experience reconnects you to your body, emotions, and intuition, creating profound breakthroughs in confidence and clarity.

Note: This retreat only happens every other year—the next will not be until 2027. Reserve your spot now at christinehassler.com/retreat.
