• Great work being done by people all over the world | James Kirby

  Stan says farewell to The Compassion Initiative Podcast, launching the Compassion in a T-Shirt podcast to complement his YouTube channel. Please follow at your favourite podcast platform! James pivots and The Compassion Initiative Podcast becomes the Compassionate Mind Research Group Podcast, a continued source of great content on the science and practice of compassion. This (never say never) episode: In this episode of Compassion in a T-Shirt, I welcome Associate Professor James Kirby, a leading figure in compassion research. James Kirby combines his extensive experience as a clinical psychologist and researcher to offer unique insights into the science and art of compassion. Drawing from his extensive research, as well as his recent book, Choose Compassion, James discusses a plethora of recent advances in the science of compassion, some of the most interesting findings in others' research as well as his own, considerations around men and compassion, and much more. We also discuss the transition that is underway from our podcast collaboration--The Compassion Initiative Podcast--and our move towards separate projects: my move to consolidating Compassion in a T-Shirt into a YouTube channel and podcast, and his move towards transforming our previous podcast into the Compassionate Mind Research Group Podcast. James is an Associate Professor in the School of Psychology at The University of Queensland and an Honorary Associate Professor at the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education at Stanford University. He co-directs the Compassionate Mind Research Group and is a recognised expert featured on radio, podcasts, articles, and television. Join us as we delve into the transformative power of compassion with someone who truly understands its depth and breadth.
