On Self-Compassion with a 7th Grader

This week, Caitlin Plant, Program Manager at Distress and Crisis Ontario, and her 7th grade daughter are talking about self-compassion. They explore Dr. Kristin Neff’s definition of what self-compassion is, walk through her three key elements of self-compassion, and have an honest conversation about how difficult self-compassion can be.
