Why This Workshop Matters
You’re navigating the daily demands of work, relationships, aging parents, changing hormones, and an ever-evolving body. You care deeply. You show up for everyone else.
But inside? You’re exhausted. And the voice in your head keeps whispering,
“You should be doing more.”
“Why is this still so hard?”
“Why can’t you keep it together?”
Self-compassion offers a different way forward.
It’s not about lowering your standards or avoiding responsibility. It’s about giving yourself the kind of care, clarity, and motivation that actually fuels growth. In a world that rewards hustle and harsh self-judgment,self-compassion is a radical act of reclaiming your own humanity.
What You’ll Learn and Experience
In this 90-minute interactive session, you’ll:
- Learn what self-compassion really is (and what it’s not)
- Learn the 3 components of self-compassion and how they show up in your life
- Take a research-backed Self-Compassion Scale to identify your strengths and areas for growth
- Learn how to turn self-critical talk into compassionate motivation
- Discover how self-compassion boosts accountability, motivation, and emotional resilience
- Practice emotional granularity to reduce overwhelm and increase self-awareness
- Move through a guided Loving Kindness Meditation, grounded in neuroscience, that supports empathy and perspective-taking
- Apply practical tools for weaving self-compassion into your day-to-day wellbeing, fitness, relationships, health, and work
This isn’t fluff. This is science-backed, soul-centered work.
Why Self-Compassion Works
The research is clear. Self-compassion is associated with:
- Greater emotional resilience
- Decreased stress, anxiety, and shame
- Improved physical health behaviors, like exercise, eating, and sleep
- More sustainable motivation and personal accountability
- Increased connection and satisfaction in relationships
- Lower cortisol levels and decreased inflammation
- Increased brain activity in regions associated with empathy and emotional regulation
When you treat yourself with compassion, you create the conditions for growth, healing, and lasting change.
Why I Teach This
In 2021, while completing my graduate studies in Executive Coaching, my mentor coach gently reflected that self-judgment was showing up in my work. That landed hard. I saw myself as kind, caring, and deeply committed to helping others. I was the “good girl”. But when I paused to really look, I saw what my mentor saw: a pattern of pushing, proving, and people-pleasing that had me constantly trying to outrun the loud inner critic in my head.
So I dove into the research of Dr. Kristin Neff and began practicing self-compassion in real ways—every day. Not just as an idea, but as a set of tools and actions. Over the past five years, that practice has become one of the most transformative parts of my life. And I say that as someone who usually rolls her eyes at the word “transformative.”
From the outside, not much changed. But on the inside? Everything shifted. The way I moved through my day. The way I showed up in my relationships. The way I talked to myself when things were hard. I stopped using compassion as something I only gave to others and started extending it to myself. That changed the quality of my life, my health, and my leadership.
As a coach, I see over and over again how self-compassion is the missing piece for women who are stuck in cycles of burnout, perfectionism, or all-or-nothing thinking. And it’s not because we’re doing anything wrong. It’s because we live in systems that reward women’ self-sacrifice and make self- compassion the weak option.
But I believe this practice is necessary. I believe it’s one of the most powerful tools we have to move through midlife with more ease, clarity, and connection. Because in a world that perpetuates cultures of criticism, judgment, and “not enough,” self-compassion is a radical act of both self-care and community care.
