So listen to this; this is reading from Worthy by Jamie Kern Lima, page one: 'For the 80% of women who don't believe they're enough, for the 75% of female executives who deal with impostor syndrome, for the 91% of girls and women who don't love their bodies, for the 73% of men who feel inadequate, and for the 100% of men who come from a woman and likely have at least one girl or woman in their lives whom they care about, when you believe you're fundamentally not enough and unworthy as a person, it's a lie; the time to unlearn that lie has come.

The podcast host, Jay Shetty, reads a passage from page one of 'Worthy' by Jamie Kern Lima, which emphasizes the widespread nature of self-doubt and inadequacy among women and men.

As I sat here and read through the lies, I was just like, 'I've told myself that one, I've told myself that one, I've told myself that one, I've told myself that one,' and I think our community who's listening to On Purpose right now or watching will definitely feel that these lies are relatable. So I'd love to dive into some of them that really stick out to me; and I love that you've made it about unlearning lies rather than building self-worth, because it almost feels so hard to be like, 'Well how do I build my self-worth?'.

The host reflects on the themes presented in the book 'Worthy', discussing how relatable the lies mentioned in the book are to personal experiences.

So let's start with—I want to start, and we're not going to go through all of them, because I want you guys to read the book—but I'm going to pick out a couple that really resonated with me. The first one that really resonated with me was, of course, 'Don't wait on your weight.'

The host references the book as he prepares to discuss some specific examples from the 'lies' section which is part of Jamie Kern Lima's book, 'Worthy'.

This is a whole chapter in Worthy, like you said, where I go into all these lies and how do you unlearn them. This chapter is not about your weight; it's about that if you've been waiting on your weight to live your best life—or, by the way, the weight of expectations, other people's expectations, or your own—what weight are you letting hold you down?

The guest discusses a chapter from her book, 'Worthy', where she explores the concept of unlearning lies related to weight and expectations.

And I get excited for what’s coming, because this isn't happening to me; it's happening for me. I detail how to build this new set of definitions in my book.

The guest shares her excitement about her book, which elaborates on how to redefine personal experiences and perspectives.

In the book, I worked through the meaning I assigned to being adopted and growing up often alone. I realized I could either continue to tell myself a disempowering story or redefine it in a way that resonates with the truth.

The guest discusses her journey of redefining the meaning she has ascribed to her life experiences, a process she elaborates on in her book 'Worthy.'
