That's exactly what the author did. Then her husband of 31 years died, and she got a crash course -- the hard way - on what was helpful during this devastating time, and what was unintentionally hurtful.
Feeling ill-equipped to be a natural nurturer is a nearly universal phenomenon. Cultivating Compassion will give you a roadmap to teach you what to do or say that will help your hurting friend.
The author "uncomplicates" the conversations, and gives you the exact words to say or avoid. And more importantly, she shares the "whys" behind those suggestions.
So, whether your friend has lost a spouse, a child, a job, their health, or their status quo, Cultivating Compassion is the resource you need. It's a short "lunch-hour" read designed to quickly equip you with tools you need for your compassion arsenal. It will give you the confidence you need to step into your friend's hurting world and be the blessing they desperately need during their season of loss.
If you're ready take the "awkward" out of these situations, and become the friend you've always wanted to be (but didn't know how), check out the "Look Inside" feature and then take the first step towards being that compassionate friend by clicking "Buy Now."
