Some of this book is quite good, with practical and actionable advice. Later chapters, however, felt repetitive (a common problem in self help books). The author writes from a South Korean perspective which translates to an American perspective (my market) well, although there are some interesting differences that left me much more curious about South Korea than I was before.

This is a guide that delves into the foundational role self-esteem plays in our lives. The author offers a step-by-step approach to help readers recover from low self-worth and build lasting confidence. The book emphasizes understanding one's unique value and developing an internal sense of validation, enabling individuals to define confidence and happiness on their own terms. The book is broken up into multiple passages which is useful both for navigating the book quickly, but also to enable the readers to go back and refer to specific sections in times of need. Ultimately, this book is great for self reflection and trying to learn how to appreciate yourself more. Building yourself back up is a lengthy process, and this book seems to be a good reminder along that process.
