with Dr. Rhoberta Shaler, The Relationship Help Doctor

Guest: Laura Jack, author of The Compassion Code

Were you ever told to "be nice" or to "play nicely?"

This show focuses on what you may be losing in life if you're still following that early "Be nice!" admonition.

Guest, Laura Jack, author of The Compassion Code, joins in to discuss the distinctions between being compassionate and living up to the expectations of others. Big difference!

Laura Jack teaches compassionate communication and how we can relate to one another more effectively during the challenging moments in life. Her mission is to cultivate a culture of compassion, starting with self, and to create a better understanding of loss and its accompanying grief.
