For me, this is probably the most important video I will ever publish. In this video, we define what unconditional self-worth is, looks, and feels like. We explore how connecting to an unconditional sense of your own self-worth changes your daily life, the way other people see you, and the way you see other people. We also compare the way that the top evidence-based types of therapy approach self-worth and how to connect with self-worth on a deeper level.
