If, recently, you've caught yourself thinking that your problems are insignificant ”in the scheme of things“, then you are not alone.  When we see war and devastation in the news everyday it can be easy to think that our problems don't matter. But someone else's suffering doesn't make your situation magically okay. That's why in this episode, I chatted with Certified Life Coach, Christal Allen-Harrahill and asked her to share her tips for dealing with our own emotions while processing the disasters we see unfold around the world. The big takeaway that I hope you get from the interview is the advice Christal gives about self-compassion, and how that's not indulgent but vital. As Christal states, you can't drink from an empty cup.
