Summary
Empowers women of all ages and backgrounds to improve their self-esteem for a lifetime of awareness, poise, and confidence. Despite years of progress, many women today continue to suffer from low self-esteem. In her revelatory and prescriptive work THE SELF-ESTEEM REGIME: An Action Plan for Becoming the Confident Person You Were Meant to Be, internationally renowned multimedia producer, supermodel, award-winning actress, and public speaker Clarissa Burt offers down-to-earth advice for women to help them manifest self-confidence in all aspects of their lives: relationships, family, friendships, careers, and everyday engagement. The book helps readers find worthiness through a concrete, step-by-step program for women of all ages and backgrounds. Sharing her unique mix of knowledge, attitude, and humor, Clarissa walks readers through her unique process that instills a lifetime of self-awareness, poise, and assurance. Clarissa empowers readers to accept mistakes as valuable learning experiences and steppingstones. Her regime-which features a wealth of tips, case studies, and affirmations-is neither complicated nor demanding, although it builds mental strength, toughness, and resilience -qualities necessary for higher self-esteem and overall wellness.
Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "Self-esteem is an evergreen, staple subject in the massive repository of self-help books, and it is more important than ever with demoralizing and unexpected changes wrought by the COVID-19 pandemic. Self-esteem guru and podcaster Burt addresses this here. It may seem simple, but negativity put out there in words and actions comes back threefold. It harms a person's psyche and sets Inner Critics to overdrive. Although a bit overly simplified at times with sentimental advice, the book highlights research that shows that CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) skills take practice to develop and do help with depression and anxiety. Developing affirmations or reminders of accomplishments is key to building up self-esteem, but this can be a challenge for many readers who depend on external validation to feel better about themselves rather than learning how to generate these feelings from within. This book will help, and will especially appeal to readers who like exercises for each chapter to practice the skills they are learning about as well as alternative thoughts to challenge negative thinking."
