"Self Kindness, now more than ever!" In this episode, Pete and his guest, Kristin Rothballer explore how the torch of Self Kindness allows us to show up to the pain in ourselves and the pain of the world open rather than closed.
Kristin Rothballer talks about how to cultivate the capacity for Self Kindness to carry us for the long haul, how to awaken to self kindness and not go back to sleep. She's all about dissolving the myth of separation, how brokenness can be our ally, and she share's a beautiful Rumi poem.
