On this episode of The Other Chair, we are diving into the intersection of emotional intelligence, mediation, and joy, and how empathy can transform even the most challenging conversations into opportunities for connection.

Our guest is Misha Safran, trilingual mediator, keynote speaker, educator, and founder of the Center for Empathy and Emotional Intelligence. In this episode, Misha shares how empathy and emotional intelligence can help us build cultures in workplaces, classrooms, and communities where conflict is not feared but embraced as a path to deeper understanding and connection.
