How do you exercise full sympathy towards someone, without taking on their emotions? If you’re an empath, or highly sensitive to others, it can be easy to try to comfort them in ways that aren’t helpful. So, here’s how to be a fire friend in times of need. We dive into how can we actively listen to what our loved ones are looking for, create safety on both sides, and allow ourselves to process productively. We talk coffee shop friends, leaving spontaneous voice notes of affirmation, and taking a step back in order to show up fully.
