In today's episode I focus on the topic of self-compassion as a tool for healing from breakups. We discuss the fact that self-compassion is crucial for recovery, even more so than simply taking action. We also talk about the common misconception that self-love only develops as a result of working on oneself, how a lack of self-compassion can lead to over-exertion in trying to “fix” oneself, how everyone deserves self-compassion, even if they believe they were at fault for the breakup, tools and mantras for helping with self compassion and much more!

In today's episode I'm answering the question that many of you are probably asking yourself often which is, was the breakup the right decision? This episode not only applies to those of you who are questioning your decision to end your relationship AND those of you who feel like your ex made the mistake of ending the relationship and will realize it any day now (we're all guilty of thinking that way). I also talk about how you can trust that it was the right decision and continue moving on even if you feel doubtful.
