Empathy vs. Sympathy…Everyone Needs a Listening Ear

Many blessings everyone. Today I wanted to focus on empathy. In this video by Dr. Brene Brown, it really talks about the difference between empathy and sympathy.

Empathy is when you can put yourself in that person’s shoes, feel what they are going through, being a good listening ear without judgement and simply letting your loved one know that you’re there and thankful they told you what is going on. Connection can truly help out a person in so many ways!Discover within your circle or even just one person that you can talk to without judgement, can emphasize and actively listen without inserting their opinion.

Part of coaching is we actively listen to our clients from a place of non-judgement and compassion in order to assist them in moving forward.
