The Two Keys to Healing in 2026: Self-Awareness + Self-Compassion

The healing journey starts with just two skills you already possess: Self-Awareness and Self-Compassion.

Separately, they are helpful. Together, they are transformative.

Self-awareness gives you the honest look at what’s happening inside you. It allows you to see the frustrating patterns that stand in your way and understand how you’ve been impacted by what you’ve experienced.

But awareness alone can sometimes feel heavy. That is where self-compassion comes in.

Self-compassion is the strength that holds you while you look at the hard stuff. It helps you understand why you react the way you do, so you can heal while you continue to grow. It turns "knowing better" into actually doing better.

When you combine awareness and compassion, you stop fighting against yourself. You gain the clarity to see what’s wrong, and the safety needed to fix it.

In this workshop, we’ll explore how to bring these two together to create real change. You’ll learn:

• The 60-Second Check-In: A simple way to check in with your internal state without getting overwhelmed.
• Pattern Recognition: How to catch the early signs that you are slipping into old habits—and how to stop the cycle.
• Compassion vs. Excuses: We’ll learn how to practice compassion that supports your growth and accountability, rather than just excusing behavior.
• Managing the Inner Critic: What to do when that harsh voice inside tries to shut down your progress.
• A 7-Day Roadmap: You’ll leave with a gentle, doable practice plan to build both skills next week.

If you’re ready for a year that feels less like a battle against yourself and more like a partnership, this is where it begins.

All participants will receive the workshop recording and the slide deck.
