INSIGHT

Overindulgence of Self-Esteem

Jackie attributes her boldness to her parents' overindulgence of self-esteem during her upbringing.
This foundation allowed her to freely express herself without fear of lasting negative repercussions.

ADVICE

Ignore Online Hate Comments

Do not give weight to hate comments from strangers as they stem from their pain, not you.
Focus on opinions from loved ones who truly know and care about you.

INSIGHT

Pregnant Women as 'Terrorists'

Pregnant women face harsh judgment and contradicting advice from other women.
This tension can lead to unnecessary stress and isolation during pregnancy.
