What if the way you value yourself has less to do with confidence and more to do with your earliest relationships? I explore how your attachment style shapes your sense of self-worth, why insecure attachment can leave you constantly seeking validation, and how secure attachment creates a healthier foundation. I also walk through the first practical steps you can take to rebuild your self-worth by telling the truth, expressing your needs, and becoming the safe person you've always needed.
