Self-esteem is one of the most misunderstood concepts in mental health.

In this episode of The Global Impact Podcast, we take an educational, student-minded deep dive into what self-esteem actually is, how it forms, how it gets disrupted by stress, trauma, illness, and hard seasons — and most importantly, how it can be rebuilt.

This episode blends two powerful perspectives:

• a life coach’s lens, focused on lived experience, identity, behavior, and emotional growth

• and a psychiatric lens, grounded in neuroscience, psychology, attachment theory, and emotional regulation

You’ll learn why self-esteem is not the same as confidence, why negative self-talk is learned (and reversible), and how your nervous system plays a central role in how worthy, capable, and safe you feel being yourself.

We explore:

• how hard seasons and survival mode impact self-worth

• the neuroscience behind inner dialogue and emotional regulation

• why illness, caregiving, and chronic stress affect identity and confidence

• how to unlearn negative self-talk using evidence-based cognitive principles

• why confidence comes after action, not before

• the role of self-validation in emotional stability

• how attachment styles shape relationships and self-esteem

This episode is designed for:

• students of psychology, coaching, social work, and mental health

• individuals navigating healing, burnout, or identity rebuilding

• anyone who wants a clear, compassionate, and science-backed understanding of self-esteem

This is not motivational hype.
This is mental health literacy — explained in a calm, grounded, and human way.
