EP. 40 - - - EMPATHY: The Art of Connecting?

Geeezze, what a wide net we cast for ourselves! Stretch out before we jump into today's topic. Today, the guys are scratching the surface of empathy. How it is defined, how we understand it, and how to distinguish what it is not- Sympathy, Compassion and Apathy. We’ll also touch on empathy seen as a skill and our thoughts on empathy in animals. =================================================================The Dismount Squad creates 6 questions to discuss on each episode. Everyone in the episode was given these questions prior to the episode recording. The squad individually takes time to journal on each of these questions.
