Empathy is a skill and a choice we make. Empathy is not something we do naturally, and we have to practice it. In this episode, we talk about the steps to practice empathy, and why practicing empathy is one of the most vulnerable things we do. Visit our website for more show notes (www.taproottherapynyc.com) Reach out with any questions, comments, or ideas for future episodes at erin@taproottherapynyc.com! On the episode, I reference Brené Brown speaking on empathy. You can watch it here: https://brenebrown.com/videos/rsa-short-empathy/
