How would you rate your kindness?

People rate kindness as one of the most important qualities in a partner, a boss, friends, and in raising kids. Are you as kind as you think you are?

Take my free quiz to discover your KINDNESS QUOTIENT.
Together, let’s make the world a kinder place.

Would you believe that there’s one thing that has the power to change ourselves and the world around us? Kindness.

It’s not a naive notion. It’s backed by research and neuroscience. By living with a focus on ways to be more kind, we heal ourselves, strengthen our kindness instinct, and create ripples around us that have the power to change the lives of others and the world.

I Believe

I am a clinical psychologist and researcher by trade; I am a kindness warrior and agent of change by mission.

I believe kindness is the cure for so much of what ails us. Whether it’s managing life’s day-to-day demands or wrestling the inner critic that prevents us all from becoming our best selves, my work is centered in delivering simple, yet life changing ways to increase kindness, mindfulness, and self-compassion.

Say a little prayer

When I was a little girl we prayed every night. My mom would tuck us in, me and my sister, and we would begin a litany of prayers in a sing-song rhythm, with a bit of pomp as my mother fluffed up our comforters and then padded us in like peas in a pod. Our Father who art in heaven...Hail Mary … [Read More...] about Say a little prayer
