Über diesen Titel
In Episode 14, Larry and Janna open up an honest and uplifting conversation about rediscovering self-esteem while living with memory challenges.
Janna shares a breakthrough moment—realizing how often she viewed herself through loss (not being able to read, drive, or orient like before). Instead of staying in that place, she chooses to reframe her story: to see her intelligence, her creativity, and her gift of deep listening as strengths that deserve recognition.
Together, Larry and Janna explore:
- How comparing ourselves to others erodes self-worth.
- Simple shifts in perspective that build confidence, even on “down days.”
- The role of memory, past accomplishments, and technology in rekindling self-esteem.
- Why replacing the word “no” with encouragement can change how we relate to each other.
- The importance of affirming dignity, listening, and joy—even in the midst of Alzheimer’s.
This episode is a gentle reminder that self-esteem is not about perfection or the abilities we’ve lost. It’s about reclaiming value, celebrating what remains, and finding new ways to thrive.
