Welcome to episode 71 where we finish out this month’s focus on empathy, and specifically allowing ourselves to receive empathy from another. We explore how beneficial empathy is to our well-being and personal growth.
In this episode, we describe how for some of us, receiving wonderful empathy can actually raise anxiety, and we can block our receiving it out of fear. We then process ways you can begin working toward being more open and welcoming to it in the future.
Key Elements:
'If we can share our story
with someone who responds
with empathy and understanding,
shame can't survive.'
