Empathy
Empathy helps us understand and connect with one other emotionally. It allows us to see another perspective, find common ground, and build social bonds. This short video by Brene Brown does a good job on describing empathy. Without empathy, we may struggle to relate to those who are different from us, leading to biases we are unable to see. This can impact relationships both personally and professionally. Lack of empathy may contribute to an environment where individuals feel isolated, misunderstood, or unsupported. Empathy is a cornerstone for emotional well being and it is a critical skill in today’s society.
