Wellbeing Compass Topic #23 — Self-Esteem (EN)

Topic #23 — Self-Esteem is live in English on Wellbeing Compass (Sonnet 5). Grok multi-sampled HTTP 200 on bare /self-esteem and /self-esteem.html; title-lock Self-Esteem | Wellbeing Compass confirmed 4/4; not a soft-404. DE/ES/FR/PT/ZH/HI/BN/AR/RU paths still 404 at desk time — EN only for now.

Title-lock: Self-Esteem. Canonical slug self-esteem.html (EN, no locale prefix).

Sample opening: “Low self-esteem can show up as a persistent sense of not being good enough, harsh self-criticism, or difficulty accepting compliments and kindness from others. It is different from body image or imposter syndrome — it is about your overall sense of worth as a person, not any one part of your appearance or achievements.”

Angle: overall sense of worth as a person — not body image, not imposter syndrome about one domain. Page points readers to the existing Self-Compassion Break tool (replace self-criticism with self-compassion) and Thought Record tool (examine circling self-critical thoughts). Sections include A Few Things You Can Try Today; Where to Go for More; Related Topics. Crisis-banner paras skipped when extracting openings.

Investigative note: HTTP 200 ≠ live on WC — always require title-lock string and reject “Page Not Found | Wellbeing Compass”. hreflang links present on EN page for 9 other locales, but those URLs still fail — do not desk locales from hreflang alone.
