We talk a lot about self-care here on Midlife Unlimited, and it goes way deeper than bubble baths and long lunches with loved ones.

But while we explore the “doing” that is self-care, it can be all to easy to overlook the “being” part of self-compassion – self-kindness.

So I’m delighted to be joined by my guest founder of Kindness for Success coaching and consulting Kim Stokes to examine the difference between self-care and self-kindness.

Kim shares her metamorphosis story from anxiety and corporate burnout to discovering that “we can’t be kind to others sustainably if we’re not kind to ourselves”.

We explore how being unkind to ourselves manifests itself – from our inner critic’s harsh words to not identifying and nurturing our needs. 

Tune in too for insights and Kim’s top tips for how we can start being kinder to ourselves.

And Kim gives details of how she is marking Mental Health Awareness Week with her #24forKindness 24-hour broadcast in aid of Mind on May 11th and 12th.
