Welcome to Season 3 of Fierce Compassion! To kick off the season, we look back on the year since publishing our book, "The Antiracist Heart," and share what we’ve been thinking and learning around navigating shame, owning our power, and healing the wounds within us and between us. We offer insights on the importance of nourishing ourselves through self-care and inner work, and explore our evolving understanding of what it means to nurture Beloved Community. This conversation offered us a space of connection, reflection, and delight, and we hope it feeds your inspiration to care for yourself, connect with others, and take meaningful action, no matter how small, towards creating a more just and compassionate world. 

We will be offering a limited number of live, one-on-one coaching sessions which will be shared on a special episode of the podcast. Follow this link to find out more and apply: https://forms.gle/4PqSPcJ74rLjzsUX8

Thank you for joining us as we launch our third season of diverse voices and transformative ideas around the meaning and practice of fierce compassion!
