Our goal is to reach millions of women across the world with our message of self-kindness, inner healing, self-love, emotional freedom and ultimately emotional independence. 

We do this by providing timely reminders that they are always worthy and always enough regardless of everything that makes them feel inadequate. We also share healing resources, helpful tips and articles that foster our audience's sense of self.

Our platform is for women who are on varying stages of their self worth journeys and no matter where you are on your journey, we all need these reminders and a sense of community so that we don't fall off the wagon when life inevitably comes at us.

The first step to changing our self talk is to become aware of the stories we are telling ourselves. Journaling and the use of self-awareness journal prompts can help increase self awareness. When we are aware, we can better observe ourselves when we say these things and begin to address them. 

Changing your self talk to something more positive takes deliberate effort and practice, but it is absolutely worth it. One helpful tool is to observe when you say these things to yourself and instantly reframe it to a positive statement. Please be kind to yourself through this and be mindful of self-judgement which does more harm than good. In time, your mind will get the message and start rewiring towards positivity. 

Another helpful tool would be practicing self talk and positive affirmations in front of a mirror every morning. This is a simple but very effective method. You can make a list of recurring negative thoughts you often have about yourself and recite the positively reframed version of it to yourself in front of the mirror. For example, replacing “I am ugly” with “I am beautiful, I love my body and I am way more than what I look like”. Doing this repeatedly will go a long way in changing negative self talk to a positive one.

Finally, keeping a daily gratitude journal can help us have a more positive outlook on life, thus changing our negative self talk. Simply write 5 things you are grateful for about your day, just before going to bed every night. Some people might prefer to do this first thing every morning. It is a fun and mood boosting exercise that can also help bring more abundance into our lives. 

First of all, please know that you are not your depression, you are not that feeling of unworthiness. These are things that are happening to you and they by no means define you. You are still worthy, enough and a Queen, regardless. Our refusal to over identify with our negative feelings means that they gradually lose their hold over our lives and it is a powerful way to cope with difficult emotions. 

Also know that you are loved, you are not alone and there is no shame in being where you are. Practicing radical acceptance and self compassion can help us take our power back and better manage our feelings. 

A simple coping mechanism I have personally found helpful is practicing self care. And I know this can be difficult for a lot of people with serious mental or emotional health issues so I’d like to encourage you to do the next best caring thing you can for yourself. This could be as simple as brushing your teeth or making tea or taking a walk. 

When life gets tough, we all need a support system, a safe space, a community. Try to find a community of people online or offline, that reinforce and strengthen you. This is where a community like Queen Regardless and several other mental health and inner-healing-focused online communities can be very helpful. 

But beyond just coping, I believe in deep inner healing and this involves dealing with the source of our emotional unrest at the core and eliminating it at the core. I also believe in taking responsibility for where we are, not because where we are is our fault, but as a way to take our power back and steer our lives in the direction we choose. 

This involves finding the “Why” behind the way we feel. Why do you feel unworthy? Why do you feel anxious or fearful or down? Journaling can be a useful tool in getting clear on our feelings.

After finding out the “why”, the next step is to uninstall that limiting belief by using a healing modality. I am very big on self healing but I know that not everyone is there yet or interested and that’s totally okay. You can seek help through therapy and any other healing modality that you feel comfortable with. One modality I have found very helpful is Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). It is simple, effective and can be easily done by yourself at home.

Please know that there is no shame in needing help and asking for it. Help can come in the form of medical support, holistic therapy or support from friends and family especially for those people dealing with depression. And I say all these not as an expert on depression or mental health illnesses but as someone who has also gone through and recovered from her own mental/emotional health issues. You are not weak for seeking help, what you are is brave and there is no merit badge for doing the hard things alone. 

Finally, we must never think of healing and the self-worth journey as a one and done journey. Healing is not linear, it takes time and a way to support ourselves through this is by practicing patience and self compassion. Regardless of how much progress we think we’ve made in our healing journeys, our emotional states, just like our physical bodies, need constant maintenance to stay in shape. And this we can achieve through a daily gratitude practice, having an accountability partner and being deliberate about the people and things we surround ourselves with, online or offline.
