“R-E-S-P-E-C-T! Find out what it means to me!” Aretha Franklin may have been singing about how others should treat you, but what about how to respect yourself?
In this episode of This Grit and Grace Life podcast, co-hosts Darlene Brock and Julie Bender discuss the importance of building self-respect by recognizing your values and living in a way that reflects them. They also share some challenges that can damage our view of ourselves—like making mistakes or dealing with criticism from others—and how returning to those values can remind us how to show up in the world with confidence.
Tune into this episode to discover the values that matter to you and how they can shape your self-respect.
Quote of the episode:
“To expect respect from others, you have to know what’s important to you, because those will end up being the boundaries that you place.” —Darlene Brock
