Empathy for Ourselves: Why Not Cheer Our Own Comebacks?

For those who are not aware, we see celebrities like Amanda Bynes and others who have had some pretty bad experiences but are now trying to move forward in the best way they can.

We root for them, despite how their appearance changed,what they are planning to do next etc. We wish them wholeheartedly the best.

While we root for these comebacks, celebrities or not, why is it so hard to do this for ourselves?

Our setbacks may or may not be as big as Amanda’s, but we all have them on some days if not months or even years.

I invite you to root for yourself and practice self-compassion, get support wherever it’s needed, and do your best. Our efforts definitely deserve it too.

Here’s to rooting for our own comebacks,
