Nobody gets respect by asking for it. They get it by becoming the person who wouldn't tolerate the lack of it. In this episode, Leila defines self-respect and explains why the world respecting someone is always an indicator of them respecting themselves first. The cycle of chasing validation, tolerating disrespect, and losing self-respect in the process is completely self-inflicted. And it's easily breakable.
