Empathy vs Sympathy

Written By Kristi Hiller

Hello beautiful,

OK, so I didn’t prepare for this inSight and needed to get you something, and I was planning on doing my own take on this, and then decided - how about you watch this 3 minute video and everyone gets the message quick and easy.

Such a great reminder of how to deal with someone you care about in their hard times. It can be uncomfortable to sit with someone’s pain. Do it anyway. But try to do it Brene’s way. It’s just a better way.

Plus I’m all about connection, and this really hits it home.

Remember:

EMPATHY - drives connection
SYMPATHY - drives disconnection

As always, you choose!

If you are in pain, I have a safe place for you.

All my love,
K 💛

I’m a curious gal who is captivated by the human condition. I believe in exploring all life experiences to learn and grow. Throughout my 30 years of studying and learning to love and understand myself, I have come to realize that there is no ‘right’ path or way to experience life, other than head on, with accountability, a sense of humor and a knowing that I’m exactly where I need to be. And this is true for everyone. You create your own reality. Reach out if you want a skilled friend. I’m in the arena. Want to join me?
