Hey I’m Dr Katherine Iscoe, and I’m excited to share a brand new podcast series with you!
This podcast has a really simple mission - to use the untapped benefits of self-respect so you can live a happier life, have more connected relationships and become a bolder leader in your professional careers.
So, why am I talking about self-respect?
Because I know exactly how it feels to live a life without it.
When I reflect back to the lowest points of my life, they always corresponded to times where I lacked self-respect. Whether I was a self-conscious, drug-addicted teenager, an undergrad with no direction, a woman lonely and having affairs for attention or an inauthentic CEO, These experiences were all connected by a single storyline that looped endlessly in my mind: I told myself I was insignificant.
That’s why I believe that self-respect is so important, because it has changed the way that I live my life, and I know it will change yours too.
So if you have a curious mind and want to be inspired, surprised but most importantly challenged, my new podcast, The Self-Respect Revolution might be exactly what you need to transform the way you live, love and lead, so your life feels aligned to who you truly are.
As my dad always said; To thine own self be true. I love you papa.
