So Bob emails what do you say yeah annual patron JB she says hello Dr. Honda and Bob I listen to

0:09.4

all your podcasts especially the ones with Bob I was wondering if you could talk about self-hate

0:16.0

and how to overcome it most of the experts on the internet talk about it like it's a problem

0:22.4

with low self-esteem but I think I have pretty high self-esteem I am confident in my abilities

0:28.7

and most people think I'm very well put together they don't know that deep down I can't convince

0:34.4

try to excise it maybe you could be just interested in it or curious about it not with the idea that
