Ep. 4 What The World Might Be Missing, Empathy!

With empathy, you are quick to listen and slow to judge. In today’s world, it's vice versa, people are fast to judge and they barely listen. And when they listen, they do with the intention of replying and not understanding. That’s how we miss a golden opportunity to support and encourage each other when going through tough times.It's also important to note that empathy is only effective when reasonable limits are set. If you get too attached to a problem being faced by another person, you are most likely unable to help the person going through it. Empathy should be approached with caution and intention for it to be a useful path to encouragement and support.In this episode, we’ll dive deep into empathy and the potential impact it can create. We’ll also discuss its different forms and the qualities of each of them.
