Welcome to another episode in season 7 of The Mobile Mentor pod!! And episode on a topic that's SUPER important to me: Empathy. And this was brought about by some family friction this recent Christmas (because, duh!).
I chat about said family friction, how it affected me, and what I realised about myself and my defaults as a result of other people's situations and emotions. And tbh, I wasn't totally happy about it. Moving forward, I'm considering how to adapt my empathy. You'll find out why...
Themes in the episode:
-Empathy in relationships of all kinds
-The different types of empathy (there are 3!)
-Why too much empathy isn't a good thing
-Toggling empathy for the right relationships and moments
-Extending empathy to oneself
-Compassion vs. Empathy
-Childhood trauma, coping strategies, and why I am how I am
-People pleasing
-Emotional management
