Description

What is empathy? Brené Brown, author of Atlas of the Heart (a book we are obsessed with), defines empathy as:A skill set that is one of the most powerful tools of compassion.Empathy and compassion are related but distinct concepts since both involve understanding another person's situation. The concept of empathy is rooted in identifying, relating, and being present to another person's feelings. It does not necessarily mean you feel the same thing that the other person is feeling. In this episode, Kevin Henry joins us in exploring and understanding all facets of empathy. For Kevin, people fear the feeling of empathy since it makes us more vulnerable and makes us remember specific occurrences in the past.He also gives tips regarding opening ourselves to other perspectives, allowing us to feel empathy fully. Kevin pointed out that disallowing ourselves in doing this opens the door to more fear, anxiety, and nonacceptance towards other people. Kevin is changing the narrative of how people navigate their lives with his 30 years of experience in Program Management, Diversity-Equity-Inclusion education, journalism, training, writing, acting fields, public speaking, and as the host of All The Way Authentic podcast. What You Will Learn From This Episode02:27 - What Kevin Henry is obsessed with02:41 - Working on your empathy tools05:33 - Applying empathy in professional relationships09:14 - Learning how to listen better 11:32 - Embracing diversity and inclusion15:17 - Upbringing as an influence on one’s ability to listen and understand17:44 - Different degrees of empathy based on one’s profession22:48 - Treating everybody as an individual28:45 - Being open to other perspectives 30:48 - Kevin’s final message and tipsResources MentionedBrené Brown’s 30 core emotions  https://brenebrown.com/resources/list-of-core-emotions/Atlas of the HeartLearn More About Kevin HenryWebsite: https://www.kevinphenry.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevin-p-henry-79b071167/Kevin’s ‘All The Way Authentic’ Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1589144167See What Your Obsessed Girls Are Doing and Send Us Feedback!CROWN AND COMPASS | Linktree -  https://linktr.ee/crownandcompassgirls
