Detach & Build your Self Esteem in 4 Steps
Hello, welcome. I'm so happy you're here.
Today, we're going to talk about something really important: detaching and building your self-esteem. If you've ever found yourself feeling dependent on someone else's validation or approval, this post is for you. We’re going to break it down into 4 simple steps that can help you reconnect with your inner strength and confidence.
But before we dive in, I want to remind you to subscribe to my channel below if you haven’t already. I’ve also got some incredible self-study courses that dig even deeper into these topics—check out the course “Empower Yourself” if you’re looking to transform your self-esteem on a deeper level.
Alright, let’s get into it. 💫
Step 1: Understand the Importance of Detachment
First things first—let’s talk about detachment. What does that even mean? Detachment isn’t about cutting people off or shutting down your emotions. Instead, it’s about finding balance. It's about learning how to let go of the need for others' validation, approval, or attention in order to feel good about yourself.
If you're someone who tends to place your self-worth in the hands of others, this can be challenging. Trust me, I get it. But here's the thing—when you attach your self-esteem to how others treat you, you’re giving away your power. Detachment is about reclaiming that power. It’s about realizing that your value doesn’t depend on anyone else’s opinion or behavior. And let me tell you, that realization is liberating.
Step 2: Cultivate Self-Awareness
This next step is crucial—self-awareness. You can’t build your self-esteem if you’re not aware of what’s pulling it down in the first place. So, start by observing your thoughts and feelings. When do you feel the most insecure? When do you start doubting yourself? Is it when someone doesn’t respond to your messages right away? Or maybe when you don’t receive the recognition you were hoping for?
Notice these patterns. Becoming aware of them is the first step in breaking free. You don’t have to judge yourself for having these feelings—just observe them. Recognize that they’re there, and that they stem from old wounds or past experiences. Once you’re aware, you can begin to change how you respond to them.
Step 3: Practice Self-Love
Now, here’s where the magic happens—self-love. I talk about this all the time because it’s just that important. Self-love is the foundation of healthy self-esteem. It’s about treating yourself with kindness, respect, and compassion, even when you’re not feeling your best.
Start by setting aside time each day to do something nurturing for yourself. This could be as simple as journaling your thoughts, meditating, or even taking a walk in nature. The goal is to reconnect with yourself and remind yourself that you are worthy, just as you are.
Self-love also means setting boundaries—knowing when to say no, and protecting your energy from people or situations that don’t serve you. When you love yourself, you naturally begin to expect and demand better treatment from others.
Step 4: Build Inner Confidence
Finally, let’s talk about building inner confidence. This is where you take everything you’ve learned and start to integrate it into your daily life. Confidence doesn’t come from external achievements or other people’s praise—it comes from within. It’s about trusting yourself and believing in your abilities, no matter what.
One powerful way to build inner confidence is through affirmations. I know it might feel a little awkward at first, but speaking positive affirmations to yourself can have a profound impact on how you see yourself. Try saying things like, “I am worthy,” “I am enough,” or “I trust myself.” Do this consistently, and you’ll start to notice a shift in how you feel about yourself.
Another way to build confidence is by taking small, bold actions. Step outside of your comfort zone, even just a little bit. Each time you do something that challenges you, you’re proving to yourself that you’re capable. And that feeling? It’s empowering.
Detaching and building your self-esteem is a journey, and it takes time. Be patient with yourself. You deserve to feel strong, confident, and whole—independent of anyone else’s approval. These 4 steps are just the beginning, but if you commit to them, I promise you’ll start to see real changes in how you feel about yourself.
