Personal development is the process of enhancing skills, knowledge, and abilities, and learning new things that help us be more effective in our work and personal life. It is a continuous process that enables us to achieve our full potential. Personal development resources are available to help us improve in many aspects of life, including […]
Chances are, since you’re visiting KindCompassCoach, you’re interested in growth, self-discovery, and personal development. Part of our mission here is to direct you to the best personal development resources beyond what’s available on our site. If you are ready to become active in your own self-improvement process and would like to seek more fulfillment in […]
Are you feeling lost or uncertain about your life’s purpose? Do you want to clarify your values and develop goals that will help you to create a more meaningful life? A personal mission statement can help you achieve these aspirations. You may be more familiar with mission statements developed by organizations or companies. Corporations formulate […]
It’s a shame that we humans are so inclined to label people we barely know. Is it because it makes it easier to remember them? Does it help our brains to put people in neat categories that reduce them down to one or two words? We’ll get into the drivers of labelling, and how labels […]
KindCompassCoach focuses on personal development and self-discovery with an emphasis in positive psychology, self-compassion and well-being. We provide articles and resources related to positive energy, happiness, and optimism. All our content is written, however, with a profound understanding of something that may seem counter to our focus: Too much of a good thing can have […]
Many of us suffer from chronic anxiety. Those challenged by this condition find themselves in a resting state of high alert. Pretty much always on edge, “waiting for the other shoe to drop,” we jump higher than most at sudden noises. And we spend much of our time worrying or in a state of rumination. It’s […]
Sometimes it's hard to find our own voice with so many others in our lives. Would you recognize your own voice if you heard it?
It is not unusual to feel pressure to be grateful. We know others have more serious problems and challenges; we know there are parts of the world where our standard of living would be considered truly exceptional, even with whatever shortcomings we experience day to day. We should be thankful and remember always that we […]
Science has proven that the species most adaptable to change is the one most likely to survive. Being adaptable is also a precious skill for us as people. Because how likely we are to thrive is often directly related to how well we handle the changes that life brings our way. Not what those changes […]
“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me.” Are you old enough to remember hearing this chant as a child? Oh, how wrong we were. The power of words is intense.  And verbal abuse is so common, we may even not realize when it is happening to us, or someone […]
Let’s face it, sometimes faking it is the best thing to do. What we need to do. And the more we do it, the better we get at it. We can fake it multiple times a day if we need to. I mean, hopefully, every once in a while, it’s genuine.  But maybe not as […]
We all experience negative emotions from time to time. For example, when working toward a goal, it’s easy to become frustrated if our progress is not as steady or fast as we would like it to be.  After all, in today’s world, instant gratification has become an expectation.  So much happens with just 1 tap on […]
Loneliness has little to do with how much time we spend alone. And it can’t be eradicated by just spending time with others. In fact, we can be among a crowd of family and friends and feel lonelier than when we are alone. Loneliness may present as almost a craving, a need for companionship, intimacy, […]
Do you remember the book and movie “Love Story”? It was popular back in the 1970s, and the tagline was “Love means never having to say you’re sorry…” Although many people loved that movie, I hope few embraced that sentiment, because nothing could be further from the truth. It’s important for us to give each […]
Some days, our thoughts seem to have a mind of their own, so to speak.  We can know in our hearts and brains that positive thinking is better for us.  In fact, we can train our thoughts to improve our happiness. Yet often, our minds wander to the worst possible outcome, explanation, or assumption. We […]
No matter how jam-packed our lives are, we all experience bouts of boredom from time to time. The last few years, with intermittent periods of social distancing and shutdown have meant it has become more prevalent and common for many of us. Adults, children, teenagers, the elderly: everyone has been a little more vulnerable to […]

Testimonials: Love for KindCompassCoach

"In a world that is becoming increasingly polarized, separating into ‘us’ and ‘them’ far too often, KindCompassCoach is a lighthouse for those seeking a port in the storm. Joan writes straight from her heart using her wealth of knowledge to inspire, encourage, and offer kindness to each and every reader. I love that each post challenges me to consider how I can take the wisdom offered and practice it with intention. Those of us seeking truth and guidance, find it in every single KindCompassCoach post. From how to incorporate mindfulness to accessing our bank of positive memories during times of grief or struggle, Joan encourages her readers with unconditional understanding and compassion. This blog is a gem to be enjoyed and shared!"
