I was first introduced to NVC as an educator interested in consent-based learning. NVC was such an empowering tool that I began to teach it directly to the kids in our programs and any parent who expressed interest! The more I practiced NVC, the more compassion I had for myself and others. I just felt increasingly at peace with the world and a kinship to others.
After getting sick in March 2020, I found myself navigating a rare autoimmune disease, an unexpected hospitalization, and a whole lot of uncertainty. Without a doubt, NVC and self compassion helped me in my loneliest, scariest, and angriest moments of illness and recovery. Now I feel compelled to share these tools with others so that more people can find peace and resilience in their moments of adversity.
Now I use my experiences to help people like you get clear on what you need so that you can discover how to experience more of what you truly value.
