In this week’s Ask a Therapist: self-compassion counts 💜. If you didn’t meet a goal this year, that doesn’t mean you failed—it means you’re human. Try talking to yourself the way you would a friend, practicing mindfulness or journaling, and giving yourself the grace you deserve. Instead of focusing on what didn’t happen, notice what did. And if a goal didn’t stick, it might not be a flaw in you—it might just not have fit your values ✨.
