In a world that often feels disconnected and anxious, is there a way to find connection and greater meaning in life?

The Kindness and Compassion Podcast is a podcast about helping people find emotional and spiritual intelligence for greater meaning and peace in their lives. Drawing from the science of psychology, psychotherapy, along with the voices of spirituality and religion, this podcast explores how people can, and have, transformed their lives by finding deeper meaning in knowing themselves more fully.

In this podcast, you will hear stories of hope and reconciliation. You will learn how people practice kindness and compassion in their lives. This podcast brings people together in a busy world that too often feels disconnected and polarized. Paying it forward and the power of empathy are practices that can heal and bring meaningful change in people’s lives.

Hosted by Gordon Brewer, LMFT a licensed psychotherapist and clergy person, and produced by the PsychCraft network, we explore the science and practices of mindfulness, gratitude, compassion, and forgiveness.
