Who Says You’re Not Worthy?

Genre: Personal Development and Success 
Premise: “Worthiness isn’t earned—it’s reclaimed.”
Brief Synopsis:
Who Says You’re Not Worthy? is a revolt against the internalized narratives of inadequacy. Blending trauma psychology, somatic healing, and raw stories of survivors, this book introduces the Worthiness Reclamation Framework, a three-pillar system to dismantle “unworthiness” myths:

1. Unworthiness Autopsies: Trace self-doubt to its roots. Learn from a refugee-turned-CEO who healed childhood abandonment wounds using The Lie Lineage (mapping familial beliefs like “Only perfect is enough”).
2. Radical Belonging Practices: Create safety in your skin. Case study: A queer artist who replaced shame with Body Altars, daily rituals honoring scars as “maps of survival.”
3. Legacy Anchors: Embed worth in legacy, not validation. Tools include The Soul Resume, which quantifies impact beyond job titles (e.g., “Empowered 1,000 students to reject bullying”).

Through unflinching narratives:

• A domestic abuse survivor who rebuilt her life by Reframing Survival Guilt into advocacy, founding a sanctuary for women.
• A tech prodigy who credited his rise to Edge Exercises—daily challenges to speak up in meetings despite stutter-shaming.

Packed with Worthiness Toolkits:

• Imposter Syndrome Scorecards: Rank self-doubt triggers (e.g., praise aversion vs. feedback paralysis).
• Shadow Work Prompts: Journaling scripts to confront “What would my life look like if I believed I deserved joy?”
• The Worthy Wage Calculator: Align income demands with inherent value, not market rates.

For readers drowning in “Who am I to…?” loops, this book delivers liberation: Your worth isn’t a verdict—it’s your inheritance.
Target Audience: Self-doubt strugglers, trauma survivors, chronic people-pleasers.
