How to Practice Fierce Kindness - Melanie Salvatore August [111]

A powerful and vulnerable conversation about the humbling power of parenting, fear, the nature of our thoughts, how to grow and change, and more.

Some big takeaways from this episode include:
1. Fierce Kindness is a constant, lifelong practice and state of mind.
2. It’s essential to become the observer and not listen to everything you tell yourself. Melanie calls this accountability for how you are talking to yourself.
3. How do we reconcile radical accountability with the things we have no control over? Melanie says by beginning again. Things don’t need to be complicated to be effective, and sometimes change happens very quickly!
