Radical Compassion Challenge

With our global health and economic crises, racial and social justice struggles, and cultural divisions on the rise, it can feel like there’s little we can do about it. But is that really true?

With the Radical Compassion Challenge, this revered meditation teacher invites you to join her and a luminary gathering of guest speakers in a 10-day odyssey of life-changing insights and practices for growing compassion in ourselves and others.
