Description
This week on Best Friend Therapy, we're tackling the thorny issue of self-worth, or the lack of it.

Emma explores the difference between self-esteem and "others-esteem" and why we can fall into the trap of outsourcing our sense of self to other people.

Elizabeth compares her self-worth to a solar panel and reveals why chunky socks are a better way to keep warm.
