The Currency of Compassion
In this masculine-centred world, power and money are so often the key currency and drivers. We\u2019re going to explore how to pivot the focus from currency to compassion. Women are naturally more empathetic and sensitive to others, and as a result, our compassionate nature often comes to the fore \u2014 but how can we integrate that vital skill into our lives and our businesses?
\u201c Flow is a feminine principle over static, which embraces collaboration over competition.\u201d - Lulu Minns
Compassion is our female superpower. In today\u2019s episode, we discuss how that compassion can make a lasting change within society and business. We\u2019re looking at why we as women often feel disconnected from traditional power structures and how we can move forwards by seeking out role models and mentors that understand the worth of stepping outside the masculine narrative of doing business.
\u201cWe can only be compassionate to others when we start to show more compassion for ourselves.\u201d - Lulu Minns

- We talk about the currency of compassion in relation to the more traditional currency model of money and power

- How influential figures have viewed the role of compassion and kindness within society
- How to introduce compassion as part of your business currency, and embrace the principle of purpose over profit
International Women\u2019s Day Insight:
\u201cCompassion is not a weakness, it\u2019s a power.\u201d - Lulu Minns
The traditional currency of power and money is a masculine way of thinking that doesn't align with how we think and act as women.. By understanding and using the currency of compassion, women can play to their feminine strengths in business rather than considering them a weakness.
