Compassion starts when you start feeling a mutual pain, start feeling a sense of empathy, start feeling a responsibility for others in your society, start feeling a necessity to make a change in your life and in the life of those whom you are caring.

We believe that healing is a collective journey. One of our guiding inspirations is bell hooks, whose words remind us of the power of connection: "Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion." — bell hooks, All About Love: New Visions This quote highlights the importance of connection and community in healing, which resonates deeply with our upcoming training. Our focus is on compassionate care, addressing birth trauma in collaboration with both families and healthcare professionals. We love bell hooks' approach to collective healing and acceptance, and her words continue to inspire the work we do. https://lnkd.in/eYq2zPKu
