Compassion is the antidote of burnout and the very virtue that refills the cup of the giver, the receiver, and even the observer of the compassionate exchange.

Teaching in Academia

The Vahidi Compassion Model™ is a reverse-engineered framework of behaviors that empowers aspiring healthcare professionals with actionable tools to show more compassion to their peers and patients in the high-stress environment of today’s healthcare climate.
This model, now an emerging nursing theory, takes compassion from an aspiration to action.

...a Nurse Leader

“Pantea's teaching on compassion comes from a place of incredible authenticity, passion and kindness. She helps healthcare providers move from burnout due to "compassion fatigue" to resilience by tapping into compassion for what we all share as human beings. Pantea taught for us in a course for medical and public health students on mindful leadership, and her lectures always generated a high level of interest and excitement among the students. She is professional, quick to respond, and a breath of fresh air in any context”

"Pantea always shows up with such a strong presence and commitment to deeply connecting with everyone in the room, Her narrative approach provides a richness and emotional resonance to her teachings, allowing everyone in the training to more directly connect with the experience of compassion in an organization setting. She provides clear recommendations on how to convert these experiences into direct action with others. In a field that tends towards abstract or theoretical models, Pantea offers a breath of fresh air."

"Pantea Vahidi, RN, delivered an exceptionally moving lecture that ignited a resolute commitment to unwaveringly compassionate care among my class of aspiring nurses. Her emphasis on empathy and the transformative power of meaningful actions, as encapsulated in her "Vahidi Compassion Model," deeply impacted us. Pantea's quote, "You can't always save a life, but you can ALWAYS touch a life," fuels our passion for compassionate nursing. We're immensely grateful for her wisdom, which will become an integral part of our nursing journeys.”

"Learning from Pantea has been the highlight of my studies. By making our stories and personal experiences the highlight, I felt an increased sense of vulnerability which helped to create a common ground for those of us participating. The stories didn’t compliment the didactic part, the didactic part complemented the patient stories. This dynamic is so powerful because it parallels how life works. I felt empowered and able to carry the act of compassion out. Her lecture provided us with actual life-long tools that we can easily integrate into how we exist as humans. The skills I walked away with feel like superpowers and the weight of life has suddenly shifted into the gift of life with compassion. "

Leadership Training for Organizations

Leadership Training for Organizations

Healthcare professionals come into this sacred field because they want to provide relief for others. However, that strong instinct and desire sometimes fades under high levels of distress in a fast-paced and stressful environment where everyone, especially frontline staff, is exposed to pain, death, and suffering for long periods of time. Differently said, healthcare professionals work in an environment that creates traumatic experiences or triggers old ones. 

...a Nurse Leader

"Everyone needs to meet Pantea! She has a rich and diverse approach to connect with leaders as they guide staff to excellence. Her expertise in compassion and healing brings deep awareness of the effect these two behaviors bring in this much needed world. Her inspiring and wise counsel empowers any leader to take immediate and powerful actions after just meeting her."

Martha Hornung, MBA
Patient Experience Coach at Common Spirit Health System

...a Nurse Leader

"Pantea is a wonderful presenter. She is a strong teacher and the lessons she offers on compassion are moving and illicit insight, motivation and changed behavior. Pantea is knowledgeable, organized and the real life stories she shares are meaningful and applicable. Throughout the training, you are offered practical tools that are useful and can be implemented to enhance the efficacy of a workforce. The training is helpful to any organization. Pantea herself is a compassionate professional, with a calm yet inspiring demeanor. Her training would be valuable to an organization as a whole or to train team members."

Leaders across organizations have invested time, money and energy in enhancing in-house as well as vendor services to improve culture, staff well-being, and the human experience for all and yet we continue to see clinicians leaving the profession or staying in a state of fatigue and important positions being eliminated.

Speaking Engagements to Advance Compassion

Who benefits most from my speaking + consulting services?

Healthcare professionals are in a chronic state of frustration, exhaustion, and overwhelm. 

Attendees and students from past training at hospitals and lectures in nursing and medical schools have reported outcomes including but not limited to: a boost in morale, healing from trauma, reconnecting to purpose, and a renewed sense of hope and strength. While my trainings are geared towards improving patient experience, attendees regularly report a transformation in their personal relationships with their family, friends, and peers improving the overall human experience. Compassion is the ultimate remedy to transform and heal lives.

Vahidi's mission is to heal our healers and create a ripple of compassion around the world and her vision is to reduce suffering and transform lives globally.
