In our first episode, you heard my conversation with Dr. Lesley Cook about executive functioning. Because she has so much great information and wisdom to share, I decided to bring her back to discuss self-compassion. Is it a bad thing to have TOO MUCH self-compassion? Join us for the conversation with Dr. Lesley!

Dr. Lesley Cook is a psychologist who does a lot of work with ADHD and other neurodivergencies. Born and raised in Hawaii, she now lives in Virginia and works with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.

Show Highlights:

  • How to find the balance between the message of self-compassion and the need for better life management and progress
  • A basic understanding of self-compassion from Dr. Kristin Neff’s writings
  • A closer look at shame and how we experience it in relation to self-compassion
  • How to gently shift shame into self-compassion
  • How self-compassion can become a learned behavior that we pass down to our children
