The Real Deal: Empathy Despite Frustration

Send us Fan MailThis week, I’m speaking to something that we all perceive: this idea of “frustrating people”. You know the ones. The co-worker who replies with “per my last email,” the family member who pokes your last nerve, or even that little voice inside your own head that won’t quit. In this episode, I talk about how empathy isn’t just a feel-good idea—it’s a real tool for reducing stress, emotional eating, and overwhelm. Plus, I share how this shows up in my Pacific Crest Trail prep (and how I nearly forgot the ibuprofen!). Tune in for insights, laughter, and maybe a few moments of reflection.  Quote of the week:“When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.” – Wayne DyerDye(Zaki, J., & Cikara, M.
