"If our bodies are wired for human connection, empathy
is our beating heart. Often thought of as a "soft skill," empathy is a
superpower that I've learned to wield for good and accept that it's my
biggest strength.
I think of empathy as more than just "stepping into another's shoes" it's
about feeling with each other to act, if needed. Empathy is responding to
the thoughts and emotions of others with the purpose of meeting each
other's needs." |
