The Story Behind
Ripples of Compassion
Ripples of Compassion began with my own discovery that compassion isn't only something we offer to others. It's also something we can learn to receive.
For much of my life, caring for others came naturally. As a nurse, pastor, daughter, wife, and mom, I spent years supporting the people around me. Over time, without the same compassion for myself, I became depleted and burned out. Learning self-compassion didn't change my desire to care for others. It changed how I cared for them.
Today, Ripples of Compassion offers courses, retreats, and contemplative practices that invite people to become kinder companions to themselves and let compassion naturally ripple outward into their relationships, communities, and the world.
