Kristin and I talk about what she calls fierce self-compassion, how anger can be compassionate, and other questions like:
- Why are men better at self-compassion than women?
- Does the fact that women tend to score lower than men on self-compassion has an impact on the salary gap between men and women.
- Is there a link between so-called “compulsive caretaking of others” and autoimmune disorders and some kinds of cancer?
Kristin leads us in a self-compassion meditation, and I ask her about the infectious positivity and compassion of the television series character, Ted Lasso, played by Jason Sudeikis.
