Many of us, myself included, can be incredibly critical of ourselves, especially when things are stressful and uncertain, as they are these days. However, self-criticism not only gets in the way of our success and fulfillment, it also negatively impacts our ability to navigate change and the relationships with those we work with and live with. On this episode, I talk about why it can be challenging to be kind and gentle with ourselves, and why it is so important for us to do so, particularly right now. I then share some specific techniques for how to be more compassionate and appreciative of ourselves.
