We Are the Compassionate Revolution

Welcome to a podcast for compassionate people — helpers, givers, healers, empaths, and leaders — who are done abandoning themselves in the name of kindness. Here with your host, therapist, cartoonist, and boundaries expert Molly Davis Moon, we’re waking up to our truth, setting boundaries that heal, and reclaiming our sacred space in the world. We believe in fierce gentleness, embodied love, and in the quiet, joyful uprising that happens when compassionate people stop shrinking and start shining. Because compassionate people are not just hoping for change— we are BECOMING the change. One empowered soul at a time.

You don’t have to earn your right to exist, rest, or be seen. Your worth is not negotiable – it is sacred, steady, and ready to be remembered.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in toxic dynamics, silenced your own needs to keep others comfortable, or questioned whether you’re “too much” or “not enough,” then join the awakening and reclaim the voice within that’s been quietly waiting to rise.

This show is a full-body exhale for the compassionate soul who’s tired of over-functioning, people-pleasing, and being the emotional glue in relationships and systems that don’t offer mutual care – and may even be causing harm. Your host, therapist and author Molly Davis Moon, explores how distorted definitions of "good" keep compassionate people stuck in roles that slowly erode their well-being.
 
It's time to reframe love, truth, and boundaries… and stop co-signing the dysfunction.
 
This week’s mic drop moment: “Being nice” isn’t the same as being loving! And love tells the truth.

In this raw and powerful opener, therapist and author Molly Davis Moon throws down a heartfelt gauntlet to compassionate people everywhere: “Who they told you you are, and how they told you to show up for your life? It’s not true.”
 
For generations, people with empathy, conscientiousness, and deep care for others have been disempowered, used, and programmed to stay small. In this inaugural episode, Molly explores the ancestral, cultural, and internalized systems that have kept kind-hearted people stuck in cycles of people-pleasing, exhaustion, and fear of their own power.
 
But the old way? It’s crumbling. And something new is rising.
 
“Your healing is revolution work… Because the revolution can't happen on the outside until it's happened on the inside.”
-Molly Davis Moon
