Compassion Retreat Spaces and Compassion Community of Practice (Retreat Space 2: Retreat)
As part of the CCA’s Compassion Seasonal Heartbeat, we will be offering a four-session series of Compassion Retreat Spaces, after which we will launch a Compassion Community of Practice (CCoP). This is the second gathering in the series
The Compassion Retreat Spaces, and subsequent Compassion Community of Practice, are designed to help CCA members – and by extension, their clients – to turn gently towards where there is numbing, and to kindly meet difficult emotions, wherever participants find themselves in the Cycle.
The Spaces are designed to support nourishing, deep adaptive individual and community-based reflection, learning, growth and renewal, and be supportive of conscious intention-setting for 2025. Each Space will introduce a compassion practice and will explore a particular theme. The hope is that CCA members will attend all four sessions and all are welcome to attend any session.
This second retreat space in the series of four considers the following questions:
· As you sit with yourself, others and the field in the Ecological Awareness Cycle what is emerging as your deepest learning?
· What’s working and what needs adjustment?
· Empathic distress versus compassion fatigue

This two-pronged initiative is being offered by Liz Hall, Jane Brendgen, Lindsay Wittenberg and Mark McMordie.
Mark McMordie is CEO of the Conscious Leader, co-author of Mindfulness for Coaches and contributor to Ecological and Climate-Conscious Coaching. He works with CEOs and leaders to create compassionate, psychologically safe and innovative organizations that leave the world better than they found it.

She supports individuals in their professional and personal contexts to understand, nurture, transform and mature their views, qualities and capacities in a way that can lead to inner and outer flourishing for the greater good.
Lindsay Wittenberg is an executive coach and enables developmental reflection for leaders, and she coaches for development and transformation. She equips senior people to gain fresh perspectives, achieve shifts in their thinking and behaviour, release more of their talent, and find peace with themselves and their environment. She works both one-to-one and one-to-team, the latter particularly in relation to psychological safety, its sources, and the dynamics that build and sustain it. She is a systemic practitioner, complemented by psychological and somatic perspectives, enabling a deeply safe and compassionate environment in which clients feel able to be vulnerable - and so access new ways of thinking and being that can lead to transformation.
