We're All Human

Part of the Shame & Guilt Wheel

What is We're All Human?

Recognising that failing, hurting people, and making mistakes is part of being human — not evidence of being uniquely broken.

When you might feel we're all human

We're All Human is a specific form of self-compassion, which itself is a type of accountability. You might experience this feeling in situations where accountability is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define we're all human.
