In Worthy, Jamie Kern Lima—entrepreneur, founder of IT Cosmetics, and the first female CEO of a L’Oréal-owned brand—dives deep into the profound yet often misunderstood concept of self-worth. Through personal stories, raw vulnerability, and practical insights, Jamie differentiates between self-confidence and self-worth, emphasizing that while confidence can fluctuate with circumstances, self-worth is an unshakable foundation. This book isn’t just about success—it’s about embracing your inherent worthiness, independent of achievements, external validation, or societal expectations.
With warmth, honesty, and a relatable voice, Jamie shares her journey of overcoming rejection, self-doubt, and societal pressure, offering readers a roadmap to recognize and reclaim their worth.
