Compassion and empathy are related, but we discuss how compassion is moving beyond caring and understanding to a will and desire to act. It starts with compassion for oneself and conducting emotional "hygiene" as diligently as we brush our teeth or shower. It ends with being present and validating the experiences of others.

Join us as we discuss how we shift our perspective to see compassion as a strength — in our workplaces and in our lives.
