Self-help books can help us understand who we are, what we want, and what we need to do to achieve our goals. There are many to choose from, but we’ve managed to choose a handful of the best self-help books and blogs for women to highlight here today. Best Self-Help Books for Women As women, […]
As women, we often find ourselves juggling multiple responsibilities and we “forget” to take the time to focus on ourselves. Sadly, we don’t prioritize what we see as selfish: meeting our own needs for life satisfaction and growth. What makes matters worse? Fulfilling our potential and seeking life satisfaction is not selfish at all. In […]
If you’re like many of us, you may feel a bit lost, or unfulfilled, at least from time to time. You may be successful in your career or personal life, but still feel like that there is something missing. Something that would take your life satisfaction to the next level. It’s hard to put your […]
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 […]

Part of our mission here is to direct you to the best personal development resources beyond what’s available on our site.

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 […]
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, […]
