Kindness of fitness instructors

Which fitness folks make you feel amazing? For me it’s my Zumba and aerobics teacher, Sedge Gooding. She’s one of the kindest people I know. I’ve always loved her classes – they are fun, varied and she makes us smile as well as work hard. When we were all stuck inside she went above and

Tanni Grey Thompson shows sports is kindness as much as competition.

For all the competition in sport there’s a lot of kindness too as Tanni Grey Thompson shared on the Comfort Eating Podcast. While talking to Grace Dent, Tanni talked about a time when she was at the Paralympics and gave advice to a really young athlete who was in the same house as her at

What if… people involved in politics are kind?

This month’s guest blog comes from Malcolm Powers, who shares his experiences of kindness in politics. The dominant narrative we have about politics right now, especially on a national level in the UK, is not about kindness, so I’m delighted to read a different perspective.

It was a great honour and responsibility to be involved with both of them. If you’re considering becoming a trustee I would highly

What if… we allow our best selves to shine through?

This month’s guest blogger is environmental leadership coach, Kath Allen, who shares some tips for ensuring we show ourselves kindness, as a basis for kindness to others.

The kindness of clients

I have been feeling ill over the weekend and still not great today. I had a meeting with a client this morning and when I mentioned I’m not feeling 100% she immediately offered to postpone the meeting. I said I was happy to carry on, but it was really kind of her to think about

Doing things that make us feel great are powerful acts of self kindness. Olivia shared that “Taking time to straighten my hair! It makes me feel like a million bucks.” Olivia absolutely deserves to feel like that, and so do you! What can you do today to make you feel amazing?
