Fierce Self-Compassion : How Women Can Harness Kindness to Speak up - VERY GOOD

In this empowering guide, Kristin Neff expands her pioneering work on self-kindness to show women how to balance two complementary energies: the tender compassion that heals and accepts, and the fierce compassion that protects, asserts, and sets boundaries. Drawing on research, personal narrative, and practical exercises, she invites readers to move beyond the cultural script of always being soft, self-sacrificing or silenttoward embracing their fierceness with kindness. The book offers tools to speak up, reclaim power in the workplace and relationships, resist burnout, and build a life rooted in both courage and care.
