What does it truly mean to know your self worth and confidence as a daughter of God? In this powerful episode, Karen sits down with Emily Carolynn Baker — LDS life coach, Montana guide, and mom of four — to explore how our divine identity as spiritual beings is the foundation of unshakeable self worth and confidence. Emily shares her deeply personal journey from people-pleasing and emotional avoidance to discovering that her preferences, emotions, and desires are sacred expressions of who she already is.

5 Key Takeaways

  1. Your spiritual identity comes first. You are a spiritual being having a human experience — not the other way around. True self worth and confidence are rooted in that divine identity, not your circumstances.

  2. Knowing your preferences matters. If you can't answer "what do I want?", that's a sign to go deeper. Reconnecting with your own desires is a foundational step toward self worth and confidence.

  3. Negative emotions are not a spiritual failure. They are rumble strips — guiding you back to yourself. Feeling them fully is how you grow into more of who you already are.

  4. Receiving is a spiritual principle. Letting others serve you isn't weakness. It's an essential part of covenant living and restoring balance in your relationships.

  5. You are that you are. Like God's declaration in Exodus 3:14, your worth is not determined by others, outcomes, or circumstances. Self worth and confidence come from knowing no outside force gets to define you.
