S5E23 - Speeding to Compassion, with guest Connie Warden

Today we meet Connie Warden, a seasoned acupuncturist, mindfulness teacher, and the author of Speeding to Compassion: Life Lessons and Humor to the Highroad. In this powerful episode, Connie shares how her personal journey behind the wheel became a mirror for deeper emotional awareness and healing. Through humor, honesty, and hard-earned insight, she reveals how road rage transformed into radical self-compassion—and how mindfulness can shift even the most frustrating moments of everyday life.

We also dive into her decades of experience in Eastern medicine and yoga, and how her unique lens challenges traditional Western perspectives on health, vitality, and human potential. If you’ve ever lost your cool in traffic—or in life—this episode is for you.
