46. Radical Compassion with Dr Liz Sparkes
Description
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Liz Sparkes — a psychologist who has spent years working with pain management, mindfulness, and how we heal.
Liz’s story is a powerful one. After surviving a serious accident, one with haunting echoes of earlier childhood trauma and loss, she made a decision that would challenge most people: she reached out through restorative justice to the individual responsible.
The compassion she showed, and the forgiveness she offered, didn’t just shift something in her — it had a profound effect on the other person too.
Liz’s life hasn’t followed the straight line she once imagined. The ambition she started out with and the work she does now are worlds apart.
This conversation isn’t about easy answers. It asks something harder: when it really matters, are we truly able to forgive?
