Empath UP

03: Can you have TOO much empathy? Or does the world need a whole lot more?

Not long ago I couldn't sleep. So I wrote. And wrote. And the words just tumbled onto the page.

Those of you that journal know what I'm talking about. It feels a bit surreal, those times when words just flow out and almost feel like they're coming from someplace else that's much deeper than yourself. 

I picked up a pen and started writing what I felt about the world right now. 

We decided to share this unedited journal entry with you, my pages that usually stay private and unsaid. Which is why this episode's a bit different than other ones.

If you are an empath, please use this as your reminder, your call-to-arms, your rally cry that it’s crucial for you to share your gift of empathy with the world. Many of us, myself 100% included, have been hiding in one way or another. We get it,  it's not bad or wrong. It’s simply one way we cope in a world with so little empathy and so little understanding of what it feels like to feel oh-so-very-very much.  

But we can step our of the shadows and speak our truth, safely and powerfully. When we tap into the power of our sensitivity, we're a force to be reckoned with.
