Self-esteem wasn't broken. The concept was.
For anyone exhausted by affirmations, self-love workbooks, and the endless chase to feel 'enough' — a precise dismantling of why the cure became the disease, and what actually sets you free.
You have done the work. The shadow work. The journaling. The affirmations to convince yourself your enough. You have tried to 'know yourself' the way the books told you to, tried to locate that stable, valuable core and hold onto it, remained vulnerable, practiced self-acceptance, self-compasion, and all the other selfies. And yet the moment someone looks at you wrong, posts something better than you, or says the one thing you can't shake, the whole structure wobbles. The confidence you built in the morning is gone by lunch time.
This product is not a cheap piece of work. It is Ed's lifetime's work and a 10-year writing project which helped me get out of a 12-year bout with depression. It is Part 1 of a four part book that explains why the notion of self-esteem is a slight-of-hand and why this makes the self-help techniques advocated in the last 50 years innefective.
The book part is free, not because it is cheap, but because I want to know if the world can benefit from its ideas. I believe the psychology of self-esteem will be better understood with the concepts described — the Identity Resonance Concept.
