Compassion often gets framed as being soft, forgiving, or endlessly patient. That’s not what this episode is about.

This is a conversation about compassion as a practical skill — one that makes your life calmer, your relationships cleaner, and your decisions easier to live with. Not because people suddenly behave better, but because you realise that the reasons behind their behavior aren't personal to you.

We talk about what it actually means to understand someone’s context without excusing their behaviour, why judgment keeps you stuck longer than you realise, and how compassion can help you set clearer boundaries instead of weaker ones. This isn’t about letting things slide or avoiding hard conversations. It’s about responding in a way that doesn’t drain you.

No pressure to be “better.” Just an honest look at how compassion, practiced properly, can free up energy, reduce friction, and help you move through the world with a little more steadiness.
