Self-care and self-compassion sound interchangeable, but they have a distinction between thinking and doing. Self-compassion is regarding yourself compassionately. Self-care, by contrast, is treating yourself compassionately. Jill and Linda explore these concepts and thoughts aloud in conversation as they cover:

• Navigating the highs and lows of life, ranging from steam cleaning carpets to enjoying live music.
• Feeling overwhelmed when it comes to tantrums, routines and trying to find balance amongst it all.
• How does the quality of our self-care have the potential to impact our ability to extend compassion to ourselves and others?
• Consistent, meaningful self-care can indeed make it easier to practice self-compassion and manage difficult moments gracefully.
• Forgiving ourselves, giving ourselves grace and accepting others as part of the healing journey towards both more self-care and self-compassion.
