self worth — Be Alive with Kate Manser

The Impact of Brand Labels on Self-Worth

This is a brief but potent exploration into aliveness, fulfillment, and the pitfalls of relying on external signals of self-worth. I assert that luxury labels are usually used as tools to prop up hollow self-worth while making others feel a sense of lack.

True aliveness & fulfillment come from an examined life. Let this powerful episode propel you to question the role of labels/brands, wealth signaling, and true value in your life.
