Communication and Self-Esteem

I have spoken in so many spaces about both communication, and self-esteem. But I don’t think I’ve ever taken the time to discuss the link between the two.

Communication, is directly tied to self-esteem. Whether that’s your own, or the people you’re interacting with.

Think about it: if your boss came to you after you made an unintentional mistake and called you stupid, worthless, idiotic… your self-esteem would take quite the hit.

If you went to your partner and scolded them like they were a child after they forgot to put a dish away, their self-esteem would likely be harmed too.

How you communicate with others, how they communicate with you, and even how you communicate with yourself, all impact your self-esteem.

Be mindful of your communication - it impacts more than you think.
