Do you ever feel like you’re only as good as your latest success—or failure? Maybe you tie your worth to your productivity, your relationships, or what others think of you. If so, you’re not alone.
Many of us are taught—explicitly or implicitly—that our value depends on external achievements and approval. But chasing self-worth through these fleeting markers only leaves us feeling anxious, stuck, or like we’re never quite enough.
In this talk, guest teacher Kristine Claghorn explores what self-worth really is (and how it’s different from self-esteem), why it’s so hard to feel “enough.” She talks about how to start cultivating a steady, unconditional sense of worth from within and shares practical tools to reconnect with your inherent value—no proving, comparing, or perfecting required. Because your worth isn’t something to earn. It’s something to remember.
Kristine also offered a meditation on Self-Worth and Enoughness.

A Meditation on Self-Worth and Enoughness
In this guided meditation, Kristine Claghorn will help you gently step out of the rush of daily life and reconnect with a steady sense of inner worth. Through breath, awareness, lovingkindness, and a powerful self-compassion exercise, you’ll learn to hold both your fears and your strengths with kindness. Come home to the truth: you are already worthy, just as you are.
