Ruthless Compassion Institute I help women heal their emotional wounds to become powerful kindness warriors.

The fundamental aim of the Ruthless Compassion Institute is for our clients to lead richer, happier, and easier lives through the practice of Ruthless Compassion. The institute is dedicated to improving lives by empowering people to be more conscious, make reality-based choices and break dysfunctional patterns of thinking and behavior.

“Personal healing and greater awareness make a significant impact on the world. Every person who changes their own life for the better becomes a role model to others. As more people achieve wholeness through fulfillment and freedom from suffering, the healthier our lives, communities and in turn, our world will be” – Marcia Sirota MD (Founder & Director)

In romantic relationships, it’s important for you to know what you want and not allow the other person’s desires to take precedence. When you know what you want, it’s easier to avoid being taken advantage of or controlled and it’s easier to get what you really want.
