Listen "Empathy - and why it's excellent"
Episode Synopsis
"Empathy drives connection, sympathy drives disconnection."
In this episode Lizzie and Hannah ask what empathy is, how it works, and whether it's useful when you're disagreeing with people. We cover kindness, compassion, and ask if empathy in a disagreement is the same as acceptance of someone's dislikeable point of view?
