What is self-esteem and why is it important?
Self-esteem is all about how we value, appreciate, and love ourselves.
It influences almost every single part of our life, and it is in many ways the filter we experience the world through.
It is also a highly misunderstood concept.
Self-esteem is often confused with confidence. But while they might overlap in some areas of our life, these are two very different things.
Confidence is about what we know or believe that we can do. While self-esteem is about how we value ourselves as a person and how much we appreciate ourselves.
Self-esteem also doesn’t come from where most people think.
Many believe that their self-esteem is dependent on external factors such as approval from others, their past, their perceived success, or similar. And those influenced by this belief also tend to be the ones who struggle the most with their self-esteem.
So in this course, TJ is not just going to disprove that belief, but also show you how to create genuine, healthy self-esteem from the only place it truly comes from: Within yourself.
"I signed up for this course because I've had a long-term issue with self-esteem, which has negatively impacted many areas of my life. I'm so glad I did! TJ's thorough, confident and clear teachings are spot on - I had some "AHA" insights that have truly made a difference already. You are valuable, worth taking care of, and it's time to believe in your wonderful, authentic self. This course and exercises will show you how." - Despina Malas, Udemy student, 5 stars.

"I really appreciate his teaching technique. It clearly shows that he not only understands the subject he's teaching, but also how this information typically affects his students. By this I mean, there hasn't been a moment where I've had a momentary pause of confusion and he didn't immediately anticipate and address it in his presentation. My impression is that he's just a very good teacher. And of course, I'm really appreciating the material." - Don Gilbert, Udemy student, 5 stars.
