Have you ever confused compassion with pity? In this episode, I explore what compassion truly is—a willingness to feel another’s suffering and be moved to ease it. We’ll look at how to soften our hearts instead of turning away, and why this practice transforms not only how we treat others but also how we treat ourselves. The world needs more compassion, and it begins with us.

Beautiful explanation of compassion!
This podcast really speaks to me. Thank you, Monique, for your daily words of wisdom. Although I am not a Catholic nor am I religious, I really love something Pope Francis said: That we are accustomed to a culture of indifference (to suffering), and that we must strive and ask for the grace to create a culture of encounter. I work to remember this every single day.
Compassion. Today’s focus is so important not only to give to others others but to gift to ourselves. Monique, thank you for this wonderful reminder. 💕
