How Your Childhood Shapes Your Self-Worth As An Adult

Your childhood experiences and the dynamics you had with your parents, friends, and other key people in your life are what really shape how you view yourself as an adult. If your parents didn’t have a healthy relationship and didn’t give you the emotional support you needed, it makes sense why you might end up feeling unworthy, unlovable, or never good enough as an adult.

Carrying that low self-worth and confidence is tough — no wonder it can feel like you’re struggling in almost every area of your life, especially in romantic relationships. If you’ve been stuck in one toxic relationship after another for years, it’s not just about the guys you’re dating. The way you see your own value plays a huge role too, and that mindset is likely attracting the wrong people.

It’s really time to stop blaming others and start looking inward at your own role in your relationships and in life overall. Think about work, too. If you’re stuck in a job that makes you miserable or gives you anxiety come Sunday night, it’s crucial to stop pointing fingers at your company or boss. Instead, get real with yourself about what you need to change and take responsibility for it.

I know this can be tough to swallow — I didn’t want to hear it either. But my life and relationships got messy enough that I had no choice but to listen and start making real changes. That’s what I talk about in my video “How Your Childhood SHAPES Your Self-Worth As An Adult.” If you’re serious about healing from past trauma and want to move through life with more self-respect and an energy that attracts positive relationships and exciting opportunities, it’s definitely worth a watch.
