#11 - The secret weapon for progress: self-compassion
Welcome beautiful woman to Episode 11 of NextFem Leaders! This episode is very close to my heart — because I’m sharing the secret weapon that has accelerated my growth and shifted my entire journey: self-compassion.
August is always a powerful month of celebration and reflection for me.
I love playing with dates, and the 10th of August has become my “triple birthday” — starting PwC at 21, booking my one-way flight to Europe, and registering my company. Yes, all intentionally aligned!
In this episode, I’m sharing:
- Why self-compassion is the real secret weapon for progress
- My personal journey from inner enemy to becoming my own best fan
- The 3 practical steps you can use to cultivate more self-compassion every day
This is for you if you’ve ever believed being hard on yourself is the only way to grow — and you’re ready to shift into a more powerful, sustainable, and loving way forward.
