For Coaches, Facilitators and Mentors

We are building a global network of trained self-worth and PI facilitators: inspiring each other to bring new happiness and freedom into an increasingly self-absorbed world.

The Self-Worth Academy offers 3 training programmes for coaches, facilitators and mentors. These are firmly rooted in unconditional self-worth rather than in conditional self-esteem.

All are facilitated by John Niland and created for service-based providers who want to deepen their knowledge of self-worth and learn how to integrate this into their field in order to empower their clients to value themselves (and their work) from a fresh perspective.

“After taking this course on Professional Identity, I feel I can finally begin to open the door to see my self worth and appreciate it with wonder and gladness instead of slamming the door shut and cowering behind it. As a result, I find I am saying Yes and No with clarity, making clear requests, pursuing opportunities with fresh energy and less afraid to charge for my work.”

ELIZABETH ANDERSON
Composer

“Immediate benefits in communicating my value to others. Being rooted in strengths, self-worth, & discovery really has a building effect… an enjoyable path to professional identity.”

What is Self-Worth?

Self-worth is a deep belief in your inherent value as a person. Your value is intrinsic, it does not depend on external conditions such as your job, status or qualifications. It does not depend on achieving your goals or getting that promotion. You are enough already.

Self-worth grows when you step into your relationship with yourself. The self-esteem based thinking we are accustomed to has us; second guessing our every move and evaluating our performance in life. The practice of self-worth deepens when you develop an unconditional friendship with yourself.

Why is Self-Worth important?

Contemporary culture places a lot of pressure on us to live up to expectations. This means we end up spending a lot of energy on proving ourselves. Although we put on a brave face, behind the scenes many of us live with a nagging sense of insecurity and a deep sense of unworthiness.

Often seemingly successful people experience a discordant sense of disappointment with themselves. From the fertile soil of self-worth the roots of self-esteem and self-confidence can proliferate.

“The revolutionary act of treating ourselves tenderly can begin to undo the aversive messages of a lifetime”

 Tara Brach
