In this episode, Katie talks with one of the co-founders of CRR global, Faith Fuller, about Idiot Compassion. Idiot compassion is helping in unhelpful ways. Helping someone perpetuate their neurosis or unskillfulness at the expense of others. Or at the expense of a client's well-being. This conversation covers:
- The different situations that can bring out idiot compassion
- Using Meet, Reveal Align and Act as a way of sharing a truth in a much more skilful way
- The coach as a mirror: a client cannot change unless we reveal the truth to them
