So you're saying my nightly ritual of replaying every embarrassing thing I've ever done since 2012 is actually a scientific exercise? Finally, my 3 a.m. overthinking is paying off.
What actually happened
Your self-worth today can be affected by your memories. But you have power over those memories – when you re-experience them. By doing that, you can reshape your self-esteem for the better and change your perspective. That idea and the broader science of self-worth are at the heart of Marisa Franco’s new book Worth. It’s so intriguing to us, we couldn’t pass up the chance to share it with you. That’s why today’s episode is a peek at a conversation Marisa had about self-worth on NPR’s self-help podcast Life Kit.Interested in more psychology episodes?
