Series 6, Episode Five, Liminality and Compassion
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Join Dr Lisa Cherry in conversation with Dr Jo Taylor as they explore liminality as a human constant and argue why compassion is not optional when lives sit between identities, roles and outcomes. From school supervision rooms to street-level tensions, we share tools to widen safety, practise care and make change sustainable.
In this episode we talked about fears, blocks and resistances to compassion, which are totally human. You can read more about Fears of Compassion in this seminal paper link here.
We discussed the way that checking in with - and mapping - the flows of compassion in your life and work can be helpful. You can give this a try using Jo's resource the Wheel of Compassion.
You can find Jo and learn more about his work on LinkedIn and his website is here.
