Ooeuf. I know that when an interview opens with this Steven Hayes quote that my guest will have depth to offer.

Dr Renee Cachia is a psychologist who walked past me in a cafe in Brooklyn one day. I felt her sparkly energy and thought — I want to talk to her!

I said hi, and the rest is history. Renee is now a dear friend and with her first book coming out next week, it was the perfect chance for us to drop in and record one of our many chats.

Tune in to today's episode for gems on —

- the surprising new science on self-compassion 

- a 3 step walk-through on what compassion actually looks like in practice.

- unhooking from perfectionism and over-achievement (and sourcing inner validation).

Dr Renee's new book is called Parenting Freedomand is as relevant to parenting our own vulnerable inner child as it is kids.

I felt so calm listening back to this episode and I hope you will too :)
