Hey all, Happy Wednesday! It’s time to see some examples of how NOT to show empathy.

I think it’s important to see examples of real life situations that can come up and where some answers can be considered less empathetic than others.

Have you ever used any of these responses? If you have, don’t worry! We can all improve little by little if we only try hard enough!

I believe in you all. Let me know if you have any questions or comments regarding your experiences with these responses! Have a great day!

How Empathetic Am I?

https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/quizzes/take_quiz/empathy

Hello there! I hope you have all been holding up well and staying safe!

Today I wanted to touch on something that has been asked by many, I’m sure. The question is: how empathetic am I? As I discussed in my first post, many people confuse sympathy and empathy, thus confusing which they are feeling. 

Worry not! Today I want to introduce a short (29 question) quiz that has been adapted from three different empathy assessments completed by several researched individuals. I will put as many links to that information as I am able below. 

If you have the time, take this quiz and see where you land. Maybe this is moment for you to acknowledge how high your empathy is or maybe this is a time for you to recognize that empathy isn’t a strong suit that needs to be improved. Keep trying my friends, empathy is achievable for us all. 

Thank you in advance for the read and have a great day!
