53: Why Women Rock: Empathy

Are you an empathetic person, or do you find yourself struggling to empathize with others? Today, in the final week of Anna's Why Women Rock Series, she talks about why some women are masters of empathy, yet other women really battle with it, perhaps due to judgment or criticism. Listen in to find out more. Anna is a great supporter of Brene Brown's work. She loves her ability to talk about vulnerability, shame and empathy and about how to rise above your story. Today, Anna uses Brene's definition of empathy, from her book Daring Greatly, as a foundation for her show. In the book, Brene describes empathy as not being about connecting with the experience, but about connecting with the emotion underneath the experience. Listen in today and find about how you can thrive with empathy. Links mentioned in the show: Shine Retreat for Women, Sept 29th-Oct 1st, 2017, www.ShineRetreatForWomen.com Want the full show notes?
