Two of us want to work on low self-esteem and regrets together. Any suggestions for a format?

It's a very broad request, so I'll give a broad answer.

to increase our self esteem, we perform esteemable acts. And we stop engaging in the actions that gave us the low self esteem.

To address regrets about our past actions, we do thorough 8th, 9th and 10th steps and make amends.

And BTW this would apply regardless if two people were doing this together or if each person were to be working on this with their own sponsor.

And out of curiosity, is there some reason you are deciding not to work on these things with your own sponsors?

We have worked on them with sponsors.
Thank you.

 Low self-esteem and regrets are not character defects. Can you describe a bit as to how you see these two constructs are a problem for you?

Welcome to the forum and best wishes to both of you in your journey of recovery.
