Not sure who needs to hear this. But here’s my advice for free.
Don’t sell yourself short.
Don’t allow yourself to believe you are not worth more.
Respect yourself.
Do not allow your low self-worth to stand in the way of your career growth.
What you allow will continue.

I remember Cheslin Kolbe not playing at the Rugby World Cup semi final in 2019 - because he missed training on the Monday before the match. Team rule: if you miss Monday, you miss the match.
