Today, I share my "why". Why I am starting this podcast and why I believe it is so essential to build empathy at work.

We look at the numbers: what is the cost of mishandling employees that experience hard times? I also share some of my story, how the death of my young daughter (Mercy) and the ongoing cardiac care of my son (Moses) have powerfully shaped my vocational journey.

Disruptive life events are already affecting your workplace. The question is whether you are acting proactively to help stabilize employees or whether you are always playing catch-up.

If you want to become a better manager, a better co-worker, a better friend, this podcast is for you. If you have lived through something awful, if you have struggled to put words to what you want or what you need, this podcast is also for you. Through the stories that are shared and the lessons that we learn together, lets live out empathy at work.
