Danielle De La Mare shares how to foster self compassion as a professor on episode 519 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode

Don't say yes if it's not something that really speaks to you, if it's not really a deeper sort of desire of yours.

And I worked way, way, way, way, way harder than I should have because I thought that if I didn’t work hard, people would see that I wasn’t worthy of being their teacher.
-Danielle De La Mare

Let’s just take a second and really feel all the pain that you’ve been feeling. And put your hands over your heart.
-Danielle De La Mare

Don’t say yes if it’s not something that really speaks to you, if it’s not really a deeper sort of desire of yours.
-Danielle De La Mare

What is it like to be me? Do I even know right now?
-Danielle De La Mare
