Listen Later

In this episode, Julie Ross, creator of 'A Gentle Feast' homeschool curriculum and certified Christian life coach, explores the theme of self-compassion for homeschooling moms. She discusses the importance of treating oneself with the same kindness and understanding one would offer to others, especially in difficult situations. Julie challenges the notion that being hard on oneself leads to productivity, sharing research that suggests self-compassion actually enhances motivation, productivity, and overall well-being. She offers strategies to silence the inner critic, such as questioning the helpfulness of negative thoughts, recognizing common humanity, and practicing self-kindness. Julie emphasizes the impact of self-compassion on personal relationships and models how to extend empathy and compassion towards oneself and others. The episode concludes with practical steps for practicing self-compassion, including how to speak kindly to oneself and the importance of celebrating personal wins.
