Grace with Grit: Maintaining Self Compassion While Also Maintaining a Standard
Update: 2025-08-21
Description
Self-compassion is essential—but too much can quietly become a roadblock. In this episode, we unpack the tricky balance between giving yourself the grace you need to rest, recover, and be human… and knowing when it’s time to hold yourself to the standard you set.
We’ll cover:
- How to spot the difference between healthy grace and hidden excuses
- Why “being kind to yourself” doesn’t mean lowering your standards
- Mindset shifts to keep compassion and accountability working together
- Practical strategies for self-check-ins when you’re feeling stuck
If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re cutting yourself the slack you need—or giving yourself a pass that’s holding you back—this conversation will help you find that balance and keep moving toward your goals with both kindness and grit.
