Do you feel like your inner critic is trying to make you hate yourself? That deep-rooted feeling that you’re not good enough can quietly shape your life, but it doesn’t have to stay that way.

I’m joined by Dr. Blaise Aguirre, professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and one of the top experts on self-hatred and borderline personality disorder.

With decades of experience, he’s here to unravel why self-hatred develops and what you can do to overcome it. Some of the things we discuss are:

  • Why self-hatred is a learned behavior (and how to identify its roots).
  • The hidden ways self-hatred creeps into your life, like perfectionism and people-pleasing.
  • How to tell the difference between low self-esteem and self-hatred.
  • Simple steps that can help you stop hating yourself and build self-compassion.
  • Why small acts of kindness can help you see your value more clearly.
  • The exact steps you can take to stop hating yourself today.
