The Three Non-Negotiables Every Woman Needs for a Healthy, Happy Life

Written By Elizabeth Harris

If your life were a recipe, these three ingredients would be non-negotiable.

In this episode, Maria, a mental health therapist, shares the three foundational elements that every woman needs to thrive — self-worth, self-esteem, and self-love — and explains how a lack of these essential ingredients shows up in our daily lives through burnout, people-pleasing, self-doubt, and overgiving.

Together, we explore what each of these concepts really means, how to recognize where you might be running low, and how to start rebuilding your internal foundation,  not for others, but for you.

In this episode:

  • The difference between self-worth, self-esteem, and self-love — and why all three matter

  • How low self-esteem shows up subtly (and not-so-subtly) in your career, relationships, and health

  • Real-life stories that reveal what happens when you don’t know your worth

  • Why women often resist rest, joy, and slowing down (and how to change that)

  • How to audit your relationships and protect your energy

  • The game-changing mindset of treating yourself like someone you're dating
