Don’t Like Yourself? Here’s Why Purpose Might Be Missing

If you don’t really like who you are—or struggle to feel comfortable in your own skin—it can lead to all sorts of coping habits: people-pleasing, over-giving, chasing external validation, or filling the void with shopping, attention, or distractions. But at the root of it? You might just be disconnected from your purpose.

In this episode, I explore how not living a purposeful life can chip away at your self-worth. We look at the difference between your strengths and your true purpose, and why knowing where you want to be—rather than where the world has slotted you—is a game-changer. Liking yourself is possible, but it starts with reconnecting to who you are and why you matter.

If this hits home, take a look at my coaching or self-study resources—they’re designed to help you stop outsourcing your worth and start living on your own terms.
