Are you someone who feels everything—sometimes too much? Do you absorb the emotions of others, often without realizing it? In this solo episode, I explore what it really means to be an empath. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re an empath (or know someone who is), this episode is for you.
We’ll dive into the defining traits of empaths, how empathy differs from being an empath, and why so many empaths are drawn to helping professions like animal rescue, veterinary medicine, and activism.

I also share practical strategies for managing your energy, staying grounded, and embracing your sensitivity as a strength—not a weakness.
