What if the secret to a healthy and fulfilling marriage lies not in grand gestures or constant compromise, but in the very core of how we perceive ourselves? Join us as our CEO and resident psychology expert, Kimberly Beam Holmes, unravels the connection between self-esteem and marriage. Kimberly helps us understand the difference between self-esteem and self-worth, taking us through the seven areas of self-worth identified by researcher Jennifer Crocker. She emphasizes that only three of these areas - family support, virtue, and God's love - are healthy foundations for self-worth.

Our deep-dive into self-esteem doesn't stop at theory. Kimberly demonstrates how self-esteem dynamics can play out in marriage, highlighting the potential harm when we rely on our spouses to fill our need for love and worth. This dependence may lead us into a cycle of altered behaviors and unfair expectations. Yet, there's hope. Kimberly shares insights from her dissertation research on how self-esteem levels can change through interventions. By pausing on our physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual parts of attraction, we can begin to nurture our self-esteem in a healthier manner. Tune in and discover how to strengthen the foundation of your marriage by redefining your self-esteem.
