How do you care for or comfort a friend through a difficult time? Or, maybe care for or comfort yourself during an illness or trauma? In this episode, Alysa talks with Certified Professional Coach for Successful Multi-creatives, Heidi Bennett, about embodying compassion for ourselves, our friends, and others. Our friends are often viewed as supporters that can help us through trying times so join us for a discussion of what it means to be compassionate and self-compassionate with a specific focus on how we cope with the suffering of others. Heidi notes the goal is to put ideas into action that produce feelings of warmth, connection, and confidence! www.bestforeverspod.com
