You're Worthy of Being Loved: Falling in Love With Myself Again | Anamika Dutta | TEDxLenoxVillage

Описание: Full talk title: You're Worthy of Being Loved - How I Fell in Love with Myself Again

Surrounded by numerous constructs, we're often troubled by others' and our own judgments and evaluations about ourselves. Growing up without an emotionally available father, homeschooled, and lonely, I was also a part of unfortunate circumstances of being in several abusive relationships in my adulthood. My last relationship with a narcissist shattered my perception of being viewed as worthy of love. I started to believe that I didn't deserve to be loved; I am not enough.
After losing my self-esteem, I never quite thought that I'd get over what had just happened to me. Building myself up took a lot of courage, determination, motivation, and dedication. Seeing the worst side of life, fighting anorexia, self-doubts, anxiety disorder, and depression had shackled me entirely. Still, I followed the steps to freedom and self-empowerment to reach where I am today. This talk is about regaining my self-confidence to help others feel empowered because we're all just stuck in our own minds, and all we need is just a push.
