National Teen Self-Esteem Month is an annual event that aims to raise awareness and foster understanding about the importance of self-esteem in teenagers. It highlights the impact of self-esteem on every aspect of a teenager’s life, including academic performance, relationships, and mental health.
Reece uses his personal experience from his life in early high school to describe his rapid change from being self-conscious and having low self-esteem to becoming a self-confident teenager. He outlines the steps in which he used to make that change and encourages others to learn from his journey. Reece describes his change in demeanour by utilizing five, specific steps: “Find yourself”, “Stop caring what others think of you”, “Surround yourself with encouragement”, “Self-assess your attitude” and “Be humble”.
