In this particular episode you will learn:

- What is fresh courage?

- What is the difference between empathy and compassion

Compassion is made up of:

- The willingness to be aware of what's going on and that what's going on includes suffering

- A desire to relieve it

Empathy is made up of:

- Matching your emotions to someone else's

- Imaging how you would respond in someone else's circumstances

Empathy has 5 problems:

1) Occurs on a continuum from contempt to pity

2) Places attention on the listener

3) Creates vicarious trauma

4) Leads to attempts to lead or control

5) Focuses on the story rather than capacity

Skills for compassion

- Spaciousness

- Honouring

- Humility

- Reflection

- Resonance

- "Do not be gooder than you are"

- How we can deal with toxic people

Summary: 

In this episode I talk about how by acting like we're never going to leave, we can really engage. This can allow us to really see what's possible in our lives and begin playing full out now.
