"All of us who attempt to heal the wounds of others will ourselves be wounded, it is indeed inherent in the relationship."

This quote is very powerful for me because it validates the experience of connecting with others that are hurting. Compassion fatigue can set in without the person's awareness and can impact many areas of their lives. It is important to identify the signs of Compassion Fatigue so that we can build resilience and not allow these negative feelings to overwhelm us or spiral out of control.
