Crutches of Self-Worth

Episode #238

The endless pursuit of achievement, validation, and perfection has become the silent struggle of many Muslim women today. We dive deep into a profound dilemma: the confusion between self-worth and value that keeps high-achieving women trapped in cycles of burnout and spiritual disconnection.

Your worth was never meant to be earned. Before your name, before your body, even before your first breath, your soul stood before Allah SWT and acknowledged Him as your Lord. That moment, not your accomplishments, sealed your worth forever. Yet many of us use "crutches" to hold up our self-worth: career success, perfect motherhood, flawless homemaking, or even our spiritual practices. These virtuous pursuits become burdens when our identities depend on them.

What crutches are you using to hold up your self-worth? What would change if you believed you were already worthy? Free yourself from the need to prove, perform, or please. Your worship, your work, your relationships can all flow from a place of inherent worthiness rather than desperate striving. This isn't just easier—it's sacred.
